Need a JOB or a BETTER JOB? Start your JOB SEARCH at the LIBRARY!

Something you may not know about our Anchorage Public Library is that it has programs specifically designed to help people find jobs and to improve their chances at getting hired.

I actually did not know how great a focus that was until recently. Of course, I knew that our library was a great place to get info on many subjects-- but this goes beyond just checking out a 'How To' book on resume writing. Our Anchorage Public Library is PRO-ACTIVE at helping you compete in the job market.

Let's start with the EVENTS CALENDAR at www.AnchorageLibrary.org.

This is just a snapshot of the JOB WORKSHOPS you can attend (for FREE) at our library this week.

JOB SHOP is weekly at the Loussac Library location and JOB LAB is the weekly workshop at the Mountain View branch. What's covered? Anything and everything that can help you find a job or move up to a better one, like resume writing, interview preparation, job applications, cover letters, and the job search itself.

And here's a class happening TOMORROW (2/13) that can up your game in the job hunt.

How NOT to get Hired

Looking for a job? Wondering what you’re doing wrong? Come find out tomorrow (Thursday, February 13). We’ll be hearing from a variety of Anchorage employers, and they’ll be sharing exactly why people don’t get the job. Come with questions – audience participation is encouraged.

Plus, there are bound to be some hilarious stories about how some job applicants crashed and burned on their interview. So learn what to NOT do in order to improve your chances at getting that call back from your potential employers.

This workshop is part of our series for workforce development and job seekers. See the full list of events at this link.

In the spirit of Valentines Day, don't run away from #907LibraryLove just because you have some overdue items on your shelf.

This year, our library said goodbye to late fines on Anchorage Public Library Items!

That's right! Research showed that late fines didn't work at getting people to return overdue materials. Many just stopped going to the library instead. So with this new knowledge came a new action-- our library dropped the late fines.

Don't miss out on all the fun and the usefulness our library offers. Bring in those overdue APL items and the late fines will be waived. For all the details on the new FINE FREE policy, click this link.
