 help people explore career opportunities and prepare for the future of work. Library staff accessing and using state and regional labor market information (LMI) are better equipped to work with community partners to help people move from “dead-end” jobs to
 “quality” jobs and careers that match people’s skills and passion. This second webinar in the series highlights LMI resources and use cases and demonstrates how this information can inform and improve workforce service development, outreach, and partnerships
 to connect residents with in-demand jobs, gain in-demand skills, and improve economic mobility.
