They’re Just Sayin’

Lean In for Graduates by Sheryl Sandberg; and 658.4092 S213l


Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg has modified her best-seller Lean In to meet the needs of new graduates. The book has advice on, “finding and getting the most out of a first job, résumé writing, and leaning in for millennial men.”



Katherine  Schwarzenegger, the daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, also published a career guide of sorts last year. Her title, I Just Graduated Now What? is a compilation of interviews she conducted with men and women in a variety of careers (Anderson Cooper, Eva Longoria, Meghan McCain, Gayle King, and Blake Mycoskie) about what they learned after they graduated.

Both of these titles are easy to read or to browse through, and if you want to borrow them, just ask one of the librarians. We will be glad to help you. Check out this previous post about the original Lean In too.

Say What?

Looking back at the 2014 titles that we have featured thus far, a theme that emerges is empowerment. Today’s book is no exception to that theme. The author provides career advice to help women become more effective speakers. Even if you aced public speaking, take this opportunity to brush up on your communication skills.

If you want to borrow this title or any of the other books that we have listed for Women's History Month, come by the library. One of the librarians will be glad to help you.
