Thanks to a grant from Upper Hudson Library System, the Grafton Community Library will be offering eight free programs this spring designed to help local residents find and apply for jobs online, strengthen their resumes and their interview techniques and learn important computer skills that are essential for job seekers today. The Grafton Library staff will also be trained to assist patrons one on one with their online job searches, as well as with creating resumes using free resume software available at the Library.
The Library will also be training Workforce Development Volunteers to assist patrons, by appointment, with the basics of online job searches and applications, as well as basic computer skills, including creating an email address and word processing. Volunteers will need to attend a 1½ hour training session and then be available as the need arises to assist patrons. For more information on all aspects of this program contact Library Director Christian Collins at 279-0580 or director@graftoncommunitylibrary.org.
