<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition to the <a href="https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/vrtoolkit/networks#s-lib-ctab-24224475-3">
regular monthly online workshops offered in September</a>, WorkSource offices around the state are hosting job fairs on

<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://www.worksourceoregon.org/">WorkSource</a> has also redesigned their web site and offers a

<p class="MsoNormal">More specific information about local events can be found on local WorkSource office social media outlets like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Search on the terms “worksource” and your county’s name to locate and follow these news feeds,
which are great sources for social media announcements and content. <o:p></o:p></p>
