    The role of the school library in the career choices of Grade 12 female learners: a case study of a rural school in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

    This study investigated the role of a rural secondary school in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, in assisting grade 12 female learners in their career choices. Choosing the right career is becoming increasingly important in the context of limited work opportunities. Data collection was by means of a self-administered questionnaire distributed to 39 female learners and two focus group discussions with the same group of learners. Findings revealed that the learners had clear career information needs relating to their future possible careers. However, the school library lacked the necessary resources to support the female learners in meeting their career information needs. Space in and opening hours of the library were among the challenges identified. Recommendations included the need for visits by potential employers and experts from different fields to the school to offer career information to the senior learners.
