The Ridgefield Library, in partnership with the Ridgefield
Chamber of Commerce and the Western Connecticut chapter of SCORE, is pleased to
announce a new initiative to help small businesses, home-based professionals
and entrepreneurs not only survive but thrive.
Under the heading of “Skillsbox: Tools for Business
Success,” the centerpiece of the effort will be a series of programs on a wide
range of practical topics, from social media to writing a business plan. Regular offerings will feature the expertise
of our reference librarians, experienced trainers from SCORE and talented
practitioners from the Chamber membership. Formal training sessions will be
supplemented by networking opportunities galore, with refreshments provided by
sponsors such as Fairfield County Bank.
The initiative will take advantage of the hands-on training
capabilities of the Library’s new Donofrio Family Technology Center as well as
its meeting and program facilities. Library print and digital resources for
businesses will be highlighted, including our new Small Business Reference
Center database from EBSCO, along with the many other ways the Library can
support business creation and development.
Find out more at ridgefieldlibrary.org or ridgefieldchamber.org. We welcome suggestions for trainings,
presentations and other activities to help your business thrive.
