8 THE NEW TANNER Job search help available at Acton Library in July The Centre for Skills Development & Training will begin providing employment services assistance at the Acton Branch starting in July. Employment Advisors will be on-site on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:30 am ­ 4:30 pm as of July 3, 2012. Assistance is available, by appointment, with job searching, resumes, cover letters, interviews and more. "This is just one more example of the essential services that our Library provides in the community. We stepped up," said Mayor Bonnette. "At a time when our economy is struggling, it is vital for us to work with our local partners to provide these types of services for those looking for employment." The Centre and the Library have been partners in providing employment services in the Georgetown Branch since 2007. With the recent changes in jurisdiction, the Centre is now pleased to be providing employment service assistance to Acton residents. The Library's Internet workstations, laptops, Wi-Fi, and employment resource collection will help the Centre's staff and clients with their job searching needs. "The Centre is proud to partner with the Library to help job-seekers get on a path to career success," said Kathy Mills, Chief Administrative Officer at The Centre. "Thanks to our strong relationship with the Library, jobseekers in Acton can get the support and resources they need, right in their own community." "More than ever, our Library is needed by the unemployed and underemployed," said Jane Diamanti, Director of Library Services. "We are excited to further our partnership with The Centre for Skills Development & Training in this way." Centre staff will work with clients to help them define their employment goals and create a career plan, and to develop their resume, interview and job-searching skills. These Employment Ontario services are funded in part by the Government of Canada.
