Abstract
The provision of comprehensive, well-organised information on educational courses, jobs and career opportunities has been recognised as a key component of careers services in schools since the inception of such services. Recent position papers on desirable career education programs and training programs for careers teachers/coordinators in Australia have reinforced the important role of adequate information resources. Some of the recommendations of these papers are summarised and recent Australian research on adolescents' life concerns and the perceived value of a range of potential sources of career-related information is reviewed. Findings related to information seeking by over 5000 high school students in some new research are described and discussed.
