In the past, the thought of working in manufacturing might have conjured up images of standing in front of a conveyer belt. Today, manufacturing jobs are far more challenging and more rewarding. Technology has brought about progress in virtually every industry, and the manufacturing industry is no exception. Participation in collaborative, STEM-based work spaces known as makerspaces offers a great advantage to those interested in manufacturing. This comprehensive guide offers readers essential information about the manufacturing industry, including areas of specialization, job growth, and outlook, as well as information about the groundbreaking makerspace movement and how to get involved.

      Gr 7 Up-Job options in design, electronics, manufacturing, welding, and more are explored in this series, and connections to makerspaces are highlighted, especially in Careers in Robotics. Each book is divided into chapters: definitions of the career, how to get a head start and land a job, industries that offer opportunities in each field, and the history of related concepts. Sample interview questions and advice on how to go about searching for jobs in each industry are included. Advanced concepts in this series make it ideal for grades five and up, but caregivers could guide younger readers through it, especially if they're enthusiastic about career possibilities in STEM. Many identities are represented, including a woman wearing a hijab while working in the book about welding. VERDICT There's something for every hopeful scientist, designer, or engineer in these books. Ideal for a large school or public library collection.
