[LM_NET] MIDDLE: GEN: Robust Career Resources-particularly on the Web

[aborus <aborus@RCN.COM>]

I'm a research librarian working for Educational Development Center
(EDC) in Massachusetts. We've received funding from NSF to develop a Web
site that will help children (particularly minorities and girls) ages
11-13 focus on career choices in science, math, engineering and
information technology.  Forgive me if this question has already been
asked, but in trawling the LM_Archives I couldn't find what I was
looking for, namely, career resource information for middle school kids.
I'm particularly interested in hearing what school library media
specialists get asked for in terms of career literacy. And when you're
asked, to what resources do you point your kids?  Of special interest to
us will be things on the Web, but it is also nice to hear about any
media that you can recommend.

Many thanks.

Sincerely,
