Let’s Get Down to Business

If you are seeking employment, better employment, or information about running a business, the Citrus County Library System is here to help. Besides the books in our collection about resumes, interviewing, business practices, and other useful employment information, there are other resources, classes, and presentations offered that may help you in your endeavors.

Many have found they would prefer to work for themselves, rather than for someone else. For those who are trying to start, or run, a small business, we invite you to the presentation Help for Your Small Business. Representatives of CORE (Citrus One-Stop Recovery & Economic) Business Center and SCORE will discuss the opportunities and assistance both can offer to small businesses at all stages, from startup to long-established.
