Welcome to Texas Workskills Development in Libraries

Welcome to the Texas Workskills Development for Libraries project,  better known as TWDL (pronounced "twiddle").  This project seeks to enhance and build the workforce skills of Texas residents by assisting Texas library staff, management and volunteers in gathering 21st century job training resources that can be easily accessed and offered to all Texans. Ultimately, these resources will support Texans in elevating their standard of living through education and employment.

Texas Workskills Development in Libraries is a cooperative effort by the Big Country Library System, Houston Area Library System, North Texas Library Partners, Northeast Texas Library System, Texas Trans-Pecos Library System, and West Texas Library System.

Whether you are library staff or a Texas resident  seeking more information regarding job training resources, we invite you to explore this site which will be constantly updated as information becomes available.

You will find help,  information, and a schedule of workshops regarding resume preparation, writing cover letters, online application completion, job hunting strategies, and interviewing techniques.  You will also find links to self-paced tutorials, lists of agencies offering training by region, and much more.

Now, explore Texas Workskills Development for Libraries project website, as we offer information to help Texans enhance their standard of living through education and employment.
