Library staff will also connect Aucklanders with skills development, education and training courses.
Auckland Council library staff are being up-skilled to provide employment and skills advice to their communities using the new Work Navigator service piloted by the Te Manawa community hub in Westgate.
The goal is to help people recover from job losses caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The libraries involved in phase 1 of the region wide Work Navigator rollout are Botany, Central City, Glen Eden, Glenfield, Helensville, Māngere East, Manukau, Mt Albert, Mt Roskill, and Ōtāhuhu.
Auckland mayor Phil Goff said the initiative provides extra support for people who may have lost work because of Covid-19.
"The pandemic and resulting recession has caused businesses to close and jobs to be lost in our region," he said.
"We want to do what we can to help Aucklanders find work or gain skills to improve their employment options, and through this programme our libraries staff are well placed to deliver those services."
I took the two fugliest pieces of fabric I could find (because I didn't want to do anything else with them!), and made a shade cloth for my pansies today. 😃 It works beautifully. 😃 Also, I've got Californian poppies open in my garden today. 😃
Straight from the plant it self, still in it's cluster formation.
I have enough for 5 people to have plenty to put in their gardens.
They are in a snack size bag for you.

The 36-year-old is one of 3300 New Zealanders diagnosed with breast cancer each year.
Gandry joined the Breast Cancer Foundation after enduring a full mastectomy along with months of chemotherapy and radiation.
She is backing the foundation's Splash of Pink High Tea.
Gandry will be a guest speaker at the fundraising event, held on October 31 at Titirangi War Memorial Hall.
An elegant high tea, raffles, a silent auction and music are planned for the 2pm event, hosted by Titirangi company Isometric.
Funds raised will go towards breast cancer research, patient support, education and awareness.
Also speaking will be breast cancer survivor Fay Cobbett.
Cobbett founded MyReflection, which scans women who have undergone a mastectomy to create custom breast prosthesis.
Every year, 650 people die from breast cancer.
Six per cent of New Zealand women under the age of 45 never check their breasts for changes and 37 per cent of them fail to know what to look for, a survey commissioned by the foundation revealed.
Nearly one in eight people aged under 45 said they had ignored a lump or symptom rather than getting it checked by a doctor.
Raising awareness is almost as important as the funds, Isometric co-owner Cheryl Stewart said.
"If we could spread the word and get more people checking themselves, the reality is that we'd save lives."

An English tradition, High Tea originally comprised a cuppa and a scone and was eaten in the late afternoon.
Today, a modern high tea boasts an array of finger foods and a range of boutique teas.
