Become a 'Living Book'

Can you tell us about your journey? We invite you to register to be a Living Book by adding your name to a database of individuals that federal servants can meet with to gain perspective on career development. This can be a powerful resource for those looking to explore other careers paths or opportunities and to get first hand advice and story sharing.

Making yourself available as a book will also allow you to gain valuable experience explaining your career path, supporting talent development and helping you to build the stories that can improve success when applying to job opportunities.

Living books can be ‘checked out’ for 30 minute conversations (a maximum 5 times for the year) using a form that can be embedded in the Library Page, or via email and will include a conversation guide.
