PHOENIX - A new program through the Phoenix Public Library will provide Valley residents with an online job-seeking resource, according to a news release from the library.

"PhoenixWorks," available through phoenixpubliclibrary.org , is intended to offer help throughout the job search.

The website includes tips and information for people looking for employment, such as interview preparedness skills, resume writing and where to find local workforce centers. It also hosts practice exams for tests such as the SAT, LSAT and career training tests.

Viewers must have a valid library membership card, which are free to Maricopa County residents at any public library in Phoenix, to access the full site.

There are 16 library locations throughout Phoenix.
