The Warren Twp Library announces its first Speed Networking Event scheduled to take place on Wednesday, October 24 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm. This is a unique opportunity for job seekers, local business people and career professionals to meet future clients, employers and colleagues. Participants will get a chance to perfect their 30 second “elevator speech," practice marketing skills, try out a new sales pitch and expand their professional network.

Like speed dating, speed networking involves seating an individual opposite someone else. Participants meet up to 30 other individuals over a two hour time period. In ten minutes, attendees can describe their respective business, market themselves and/or their business, exchange business cards, practice small talk, and pass on referrals. When the bell rings, it's time to move to another table and meet someone new.

Elected officials as well as members of prominent local organizations will be attending this special event. There are a limited number of spots. To pre-register please call the Adult Reference Desk at 908-754-5554 ext 32, or click on this link to register online http://bit.ly/Tv0Aip.

This program will coincide with the fourth annual “Snapshot Day: A Day in the Life of New Jersey Library," a yearly event sponsored by the NJ State Library and the NJ Library Association. During Snapshot Day 2012, NJ libraries will once again join forces to collect statistics, stories, photographs and videos to illustrate how libraries are being used, the number of people using them and patron comments about how important libraries are to their communities.  

What would happen in New Jersey if there were no libraries? Help the Warren Twp Library answer this pressing question by joining libraries of all types across the state to capture the impact they have on their communities during a typical day – from the tiniest facility to the largest county systems.
