The latest edition of this biannual handbook from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (last reviewed in the
March 20, 1998 Scout Report) offers a wealth of career information for a wide range of occupations, including a brief review of important features and "what workers do on the job, working conditions, the training and education needed, earnings, and expected job prospects." Users can access this information (offered in HTML and .pdf formats) in three ways: by conducting a keyword search for a specific occupation, by browsing an "occupational cluster," or by browsing a listing of all occupations in alphabetical order. The
Handbook remains an excellent source of relevant, condensed, and updated occupational information.
