Disappointing
10. März 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
Unlike the other reviewers, I found this book to be less than helpful. Yes, it does talk some about different literary-related fields, and I stress some, but the book lacks serious discussion of those careers. Plus, it gives limited resources for finding out more information....no websites and no mention of other literary career-related books. It only lists a few professional associations for each career. Also, there were no surprises as to which careers were selected, such as...becoming a librarian. If you just want a taste of what literary careers are out there, this book is worth a skim at your local bookstore, but if you really want to find out about these careers, follow up with books specifically geared toward a particular career.

Thinking outside the Box
20. Dezember 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
The authors need to be appreciated for constantly updating the choices for a career in information field.
It has endless information on Career Possibilities for Bookworms, Careers in Libraries, Careers in Book Publishing, Careers in the Private Sector, Careers with Magazines and Newspapers, Careers in Glamour Industries, Careers in Education, Careers in Research, Careers with the Government, More Career Opportunities for Bookworms.
This book gives an insight of the vision the authors have for old and new professionals in the field.
One may wonder why all this focus on print medium, and not a single chapter dealing with new incarnations of the book: e-books, desktop publishing, etc. Hope and pray the next edition will incorporate the newer paths, and show that the box is not limited, anyways.

GOOD OPPORTUNITIES
23. Mai 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Do you love to read and wish to turn your love of words into a new career? If so, this slim volume describes a number of jobs for people who love to read. Bookworms share their career experiences for those who love the written word and want to do more with their skill of reading.
The book describes the particular field in which a Bookworm can utilize their skills ( librarian, teacher, copy editor, etc.), tells you of any educational requirements needed, and gives a brief bibliography of additional resources at the chapter's end.
Careers for Bookworms is good in that introduces you to the various careers out there available for advid readers. Unfortunately it fails to discuss any internet possibilities for bookworms. Although it lists the jobs available, it fails to give in depth descriptions as to how one finds these jobs. The book certainly needs a revision but is a good start in those seeking career opportunities in reading books.
