The Workforce Development group has met twice so far, but its impact is clear. Libraries across Oklahoma are celebrating strong partnerships, from Altus’ work with the Jackson County Health Action Team to Mustang’s collab with the Chamber of Commerce.
In rural Oklahoma, Bristow Library co-hosted a job fair, promoting career opportunities as Saint Francis started expanding healthcare access—and employment—across two counties. Guymon offers monthly lunches where local organizations can discuss community needs, shared goals, and more.
By uniting local partners and serving as trusted points of contact, libraries help customers launch their careers into a new chapter. They are promoting job-search resources and marketable skills both online and face-to-face. Visit your library to learn more!
