This is a selected list on the related subjects of vocational choice, vocational guidance, and vocational training, subjects which are today engaging the attention of the educational world and of parents and pupils as never before, and which are regarded by many educators and thinkers as constituting the most pressing demand upon the public school system of the United States. Vocational training or education, of which the other topics are parts or phases and which includes industrial, technical, agricultural, commercial, and professional education, is designed to train the youth of the country for their future work by giving them studies and practical work which will fit them to enter the more quickly and readily upon their occupational careers and to be more efficient in them. It is a^^ tremendous problem and task, at which we have only made a be- ginning in the secondary schools and which therefore remains largely to be worked out and accomplished. Vocational guidance, ' as Mr. Meyer Bloomfield has clearly shown in his monograph on the subject, does not mean helping boys and girls to find work or fitting an occupation to the attainments that a boy or girl now has - (this has been called vocational placement), but does mean finding the kind of work they are best fitted by nature and training to do well, or, in other words, bringing to bear on the choice of a voca- tion organized common sense. Until vocational training and voca- tional guidance can be more thoroughly and generally carried out, parents and teachers must rely more or less upon unsystematic and uninformed methods of selecting occupations, but even in the short time that has elapsed since the matter was first taken up by edu- cators not a little advance has been made over the haphazard methods of entering upon a career or "getting a job" formerly in operation. X This list is divided into three parts : I. Vocational choice, under which head are listed books which may be informing or suggestive to teachers, parents and pupils. II. Vocational guidance, in which section are included books of interest more especially to teachers. III. Vocational training, under which head are listed books treating 264206 this subject theoretically and practically and appealing to the atten- tion of teachers, educational officials, and others, such as law- makers, who have to deal with public educational affairs. Under Section I. have been listed a considerable number of so- called "inspirational" books, or books of counsel and advice as to ideals, personal qualities, conduct of life, and the like, with the thought that suggestions as to a few such books that are suitable to read may be of profit to those beginning life. Many other books than those that are included have been exam- ined and have been rejected as containing little or nothing of value not elsewhere found, the aim having been especially to select for inclusion the books which would seem to be the more useful and not to accumulate an imposing number of titles. Most of the books and all of the pamphlets, etc., are to be obtained or consulted at the Montague Branch, 197 Montague Street. A few references to periodical articles are included under the section dealing with specific occupations. The Readers' guide to periodical literature should be consulted for references to articles on the general subject in magazines. The Montague Branch of the Library takes about twenty educational periodicals, including those indexed in the Readers' guide, the bi-monthly magazine Vocational education, and some magazines and papers not indexed in the Readers' guide.

Crawshaw, F. D.

He affirms, further, that industrial education, if it is to reach the largest number and do the most effective service is not entirely a high school problem, but demands also the establishment of an intermediate industrial school.
