The federal Department of Labor provides guidance to workforce agencies on partnering with libraries

FULL POST: http://bit.ly/de7LnI


The Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration (ETA) officially
encouraged its state and local workforce investment boards, state workforce
agencies, and One-Stop Career Centers to partner with public libraries to
extend their career and employment services to job seekers and unemployed
workers. The ETA's Training and Employment Notice (TEN) cements a partnership
between the ETA and the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) that
was announced on June 25, 2010, at the American Library Association annual
meeting.
