As part of the PA Forward program, the library is focused on five literacies: basic literacy, information literacy, civic and social literacy, health literacy and financial literacy.

Link or Brainfuse JobNow. “Brainfuse is a great resource, because it connects people with career coaches for oneon-one advice in their job search,” Black noted. She has been working to update and expand printed resources for financial literacy as well, including purchasing new books on budgeting and how to start a business. Onsite resources at the library include five public computers, Wi-Fi, print and copy services and access to newspapers for job listings. The library also participated in September’s 1st Thursday event in Manheim, with a booth featuring job resources and lists of open positions at the library’s major business sponsors. The financial literacy programs are just another way the library serves its community, Black said. “Libraries are more than just books,” she stated. “We are here to serve everyone’s needs, no matter what that need is, from learning to read to taking care of your health to focusing on your finances. We are here to help.” For more information on the financial literacy resources at the library, visit https://manheimlibrary.org. Masks are required for all indoor programs.
