Deeper Information: With this new module, libraries now have the ability to provide patrons with an easy to use job search tool that matches the job opportunity against information on 24 million U.S. business listings from Infogroup to provide complete search results.

"Research shows that libraries are becoming the job search hub in many communities," said Amit Khanna, president, Small and Medium Business, Infogroup. "Residents without internet access or job searching skills are able to visit their local library and receive the assistance they need to find a job. We wanted to provide a robust offering that would not only improve the job search experience, but would give job seekers a competitive edge."
