Workplace911 is a joint venture between The Seattle Public Library, One to the World and Bob Rosner to offer help in a hurry for people who want to WORK smarter, create a CAREER and BOSS better. Funds to support this project provided by a grant to The Seattle Public Library from the Washington State Library using funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

The Seattle Public Library mission is to become the best public library in the world by being so tuned in to the people we serve and so supportive of each other’s efforts that we are able to provide highly responsive service.  The Library answers over 1 million questions each year, more and more of them coming from job seekers and people looking for new careers. The Workplace911 project is possible through a Renew Washington grant awarded by the Office of the Secretary of State, Washington State Library.  Funding support for these grants is provided by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

One to the World is an innovative new webcasting service that creates online meetings that don’t suck. Really.
