With the stress on career orientation in the early levels of
education, this bibliography will be welcomed by educators as a
basic guide to career education materials appropriate for
elementary school students. The Career Index is intended for
teachers, librarians, guidance counselors, and students from
kindergarten through sixth grade. This annotatated listing of 1,066
print and nonprint items includes fictional, bigraphical, and
poetic as well as nonfictional works focusing on materials for
self-awareness and career awareness. RQ This reference work is
designed to help teachers, librarians, guidance counselors,
parents, and students identify materials to increase career
awareness at the kindergarten through sixth grade level. The
annotated bibliography covers primarily recent works, published
since 1970, that can offer career information for both children and
young adults. In addition to the general or collective works that
appear, the compiler, acknowledging the inspirational role
biographies can play in career education, has included such works
in the bibliography. The only exception is sports biographies,
which, due to their sheer number, had to be excluded. The volume is
organized by career or vocation, with general eerks listed at the
beginning of each chapter. Throughout each category and
subcategory, entries are listed alphabetically, with
cross-references at the end of each chapter dealing with subject
overlaps. Entries consist of the essential bibliographic
information for each work, an approximate grade-range
recommendation, a brief annotation, and a key to note the inclusion
of indexes, photographs, appendices, etc. A group of separate
indexes are also included, which classify the information according
to author, biographie, and subject area. This unique reference book
will be an important source for career education courses, as well
as a valuable addition to elementary school libraries and those
college libraries associated with teacher training.
