ABSTRACT: This is an annotated directory of literature,
films, training aids, and consultants on personnel and labor
practices related to equal employment and affirmative
actions issues. It was created to provide the working
affirmative action/equal employment specialist with
information that may facilitate the successful
implementation of affirmative action programs in business,
industry, government, and educational institutions. The
introduction gives a brief history of publications in this
field--very few existed before the mid-sixties--and defines
key terms such as "employment opportunity" and "employment
discrimination." The directory is organized into the
following six chapters: (I) books, monographs, and
pamphlets; (II) articles; (III) periodicals; (IV)
consultants; (V) films and cassettes; (VI) training kits,
programs, and tools. A series of appendices provide sample
forms, procedures, and other information deemed useful by
affirmative action practitioners. The directory concludes
with four indices: name index of authors and consultants;
title index for books, articles, and periodicals; title
index for films, cassettes, and training kits; index of
publishers and distributors. (Author/KH)
