Libraries offer career Sinfo By VICKI LAWRENCE Q: I'm trying to do some research on the places where I'm applying for jobs. Where can I find information on them? A: You can ask the employer to send you an annual report and some promotional literature. But probably most of your efforts will be spent in the library. The Career Planning and Placement CAREERS library has annual reports, company literature and information about government agencies on file. If you pale at the thought of opening up an annual report, look at the notebook titled, Researching the Organization. It has some articles on how to read and inter- pret annual reports. Newspaper and magazine articles are a vital source of information. In ad- dition to the obvious advantage of being much more readable than an annual report, articles often contain infor- mation not easily found anywhere else. The writer has done research for you. You are getting the distilled results, usually presented much more objec- tively than in the chairman of the board's report to stockholders. The researcher's tool for finding those articles is the many indexes that catalog the contents of newspapers, magazines, and professional and trade journals. The Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature is the best known, but it is by no means the only one. The Magazine Index at the Un- dergraduate Library is a microfilm in- dex of 360 periodicals. It is an excellent place to stsrt. The Educational Resources Infor- mation Center (ERIC), at the School of Education, and the social work library both have some good resources for the social sciences field. The Graduate Library has the F & S Index of Corporations Index and the Education Index. The Graduate Library also has the Documents Center, a storehouse of in- formation put out by the government. Also a good source of information on government activities is the law library, which gets such publications as the Congressional Quarterly Weekly Report and the Environment Reporter. If you are researching an Ann Arbor area organization, go to the Ann Arbor Public Library, which has a fine collec- tion of resources on local businesses. If you are interested in the private sector, be sure to spend time at the business administration library. It has . all the big directories, such as Standard and Poor's and Dunn and Bradstreet. Its indexes include the Wall Street Journal Index, the New York Times In- dex, and the F & S Index of corporations and Industries. Much more exists at each of these centers and at other libraries and resource colections on campus and around town.
