The South Carolina State Library is doing its part to assist out-of-work citizens find jobs.  The Library now offers four specialized public access computer workstations where users can create resumes, develop PowerPoint presentations for job interviews, search for State Government and public sector job opportunities, and much more.

Agency staff have developed a South Carolina Workforce Development program to bring together public libraries and state government business-related agencies to provide partnership opportunities to assist South Carolinians during these tough economic times.  The employment hub computers are part of this overall goal.

In addition to the four employment hubs, the State Library also offers a bank of public computer workstations with Internet access.  To use the computers, patrons need a photo ID and can sign in at the front desk.  

Users may access the workstations on a first-come, first-served basis during normal library operating hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  The library is located at 1500 Senate Street in downtown Columbia at the corner of Senate and Bull streets.
