December Government Document of the Month

The Document of the Month for December helps answer that question all students face:

WHAT ARE YOUR POST-GRADUATION PLANS?

Look to Government Documents for the answer.  The Occupational Outlook Handbook and the Occupational Outlook Quarterly from the U.S. Department of Labor feature many different and sometimes unique careers.   Another good resource is the State magazine from the U.S. Department of State.  The display is located at the beginning of the library’s Federal Document Collection.
