Contributions to the literature on occupations have only slight representation in these bibliographies on guidance. The limitations of space and the importance of the various aspects of the guidance process permit citation of only a few outstanding examples of the voluminous literature on occupational life. Guidance workers know how essential it is that they keep in close touch with the flood of pamphlets, government documents, magazine articles, and books which concern vocations. Particular attention is therefore called to three new monthly publications cited in this list of references. The first, the Occupational Index, has as its purpose the location and citation of all currently published material which describes occupations. As the name clearly indicates, the literature is indexed according to occupations. A second, the Vocational Guidance Digest, presents short digests (of one hundred to three hundred words) of all literature pertinent to the function of vocational guidance. A third, Careers and Hobbies, is a magazine prepared for secondary-school pupils. It presents in an interesting manner up-to-date portrayals of occupations and helpful discussions of the problems of occupational choosing and placement.
