The CCS is constantly updating our library with resources to assist you in your career and internship searches. Below are some of the recent titles added to the library.

Teach Yourself Emotional Intelligence (Christine Wilding)
Emotional intelligence is quickly becoming another quality legal employers are evaluating in prospective candidates. Educate yourself about emotional intelligence and learn why the qualities of assertiveness, perception, and motivation really matter if you want to live a fulfilled and successful life.

What Law School Doesn't Teach You...But You REALLY Need to Know (Kimm Walton)
A favorite of the CCS, this book could arguably be required reading for law students. The easy-to-read guide provides information about the techniques and skills necessary for getting a job in the real world, as well as tips and tactics for those looking ahead at legal internships.

2008 National Trade and Professional Associations of the United States
If you are looking for an alternative career, have an interest in a particular type of law, want a unique advantage over other law students, or have absolutely no idea what type of career interests you --- TAKE A LOOK AT THIS RESOURCE. The extensive directory includes current information on 7,800 associations, professional societies, and labor unions including details about membership, meetings, and contact information. Everything from lobbying to education to food safety to everything else in between.
