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

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.
