Job opportunities

Permalink 05/01/09 10:44 , Categories: GovDocs , Tags: city, county, federal, jobs, state

I attended a job fair yesterday, representing the Library and touting all of our amazing services and collections available for job seekers. Through the course of the day, I realized that the resource guides I was handing out mentioned nothing of government opportunities, though there were several government agencies in attendance recruiting. To fill the gap, and offer information about what employment opportunities are available in government – city, county, or federal – here is a list of helpful sites.

Swine flu

Permalink 04/27/09 12:57 , Categories: GovDocs , Tags: cdc, epidemic, flu, who

There is much concern over the recent outbreak of swine flu; so much so that the acting Secretary of Health & Human Services, Charles Johnson,  has determined that a public health emergency exists.

I refuse to think nihilistic thoughts but do want to be aware of the possible dangers and ways to keep my family safe. Here are a few sites to provide general information, current statistics and ways to protect yourself and your family.

Oklahoma Long Range Transportation Plan

Permalink 04/27/09 10:02 , Categories: GovDocs , Tags: long range plan, odot, oklahoma, transportation

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation recently launched the Oklahoma Long Range Transportation Plan website (www.oklongrangeplan.com). Though still in the development phase, this website will provide Oklahoma residents (or visitors) easy, current access to information regarding the future of Oklahoma’s transportation infrastructure.

As information comes available, the Oklahoma Long Range Transportation Plan website will offer maps, timelines, news. The project is also encouraging future citizen involvement through comments, public meetings, surveys, and advisory groups. 

Transparency in government is sweeping the nation and public involvement is encouraged… the joys of living in a democracy.

 

Tulsa municipal warrant amnesty

Permalink 04/24/09 11:36 , Categories: GovDocs , Tags: amnesty, city of tulsa, warrant

From May 1 to May 22, those who have old
Tulsa municipal warrants can have them resolved without having to be arrested
or put in jail because of the warrant. The city also will waive all
late fees and court costs related to the warrants.

Three kinds of outstanding warrants can
be resolved during the amnesty period – a failure to appear warrant
with a preset fine, a failure to appear warrant on a book-to-court
citation or arrest case and a failure to pay warrant.
