About the Free Work/Interview Clothing
The Library’s Work/Interview Clothing Collection was generously started by employees at Unum Insurance, who collected donations. Since, we have received dozens of additional donations through the Chattanooga Public Library Foundation. Laundered, gently-used professional clothing is available for FREE at all workforce-related events offered through the Chattanooga Public Library.
