The Career Resource Library, located on the first floor of the Philadelphia House, has a variety of resources to assist students in their career, job search and graduate school decision making processes.

  • Career/Occupation Information.  The library has more than 200 books and binders containing information about numerous occupations for students to utilize in researching and exploring their career options.  Many of these resources are available for check-out.  Some of our newer book titles include:

  • Internship/CRWE Information and Directories.  These resources include descriptions of over 2000 internship or career-related work experience options and their contact information

  • Job Search Resources.  There are binders listing current part-time, full-time, summer and work study position openings.  There are also numerous how-to books on resumes, cover letters, networking, interviewing, job searching, and salary negotiation.  The library also maintains various geographic and industry employer directories and industry profile folders.  Numerous Job Search printed guides and Job Choices are available for students to pick up.

  • Employer Information.  There is limited employer information available in binders and information files.  The employer information tends to focus on the organizations that participate in the On-Campus Recruitment program.  Students are encouraged to obtain current employer information by directly contacting the employer, researching the organization through resources at a large university/public library, or consulting the organization's world wide web page.

  • Graduate School Information.  The library has Peterson's and other graduate school directories, some college catalogs and program bulletins, some resource books on financial aid and entrance requirements, and admissions test bulletins.
