There Are Reference Books You Should Know About!

We've been adding like crazy to our reference library, and there are reference books you should know about.
For those of you thinking about college, look at these books:
  • Top 100 Careers Without a Four-Year Degree, Eighth Edition, by Michael Farr
  • Health Careers in Georgia
  • Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2006-2007 Edition, U.S. Department of Labor
  • Book of Majors, Second Edition, by CollegeBoard
  • 2008 Getting Financial Aid: Scholarships, Grants, Loans & Jobs by CollegeBoard
  • 2008 Scholarship Handbook by CollegeBoard.

If you need to write a resume, look at this book:

  • Same Day Resume: Write An Effective Resume in an Hour by Michael Farr.

Now, if you're interested in starting a business, look at these books:

  • How to Start a Business in Georgia, 3rd Edition, by Judge Charles T. Robertson II and Mark Warda, Attorney at Law
  • The Only Grant-Writing Book You'll Ever Need, 2nd Edition, by Ellen Karsh and Arlen Sue Fox
  • Foundation Grants to Individuals, 11th Edition, from The Foundation Center
  • The One Page Business Plan by Jim Horan.

And just to make the reference section of the library more interesting, look at these books:

  • eBay Power Seller, Million Dollar Ideas by Brad Schepp and Debra Schepp
  • A Civilian's Guide to the U.S. Military by Barbara Schading, Ph.D.
  • The United States Government Manual 2007-2008
  • World Book
  • Chase's Calendar of Events 2008.

The reference section of the library is not hard to find. When you come up the front steps of the library it is straight ahead to the right of the circulation counter. If you come into the library from the parking lot, it will be just past the circulation counter to your left. There are plenty of seats and study areas, and library staff to help you.
