The Modern School Library. Second Edition.
Saunders, Helen E.
Detailed information about school library media center (LMC) organization and services is provided in this manual. The first chapter contains discussions of the history of school libraries, 1975 standards, basic elements of LMC programs, program development, and public relations. Subsequent chapters deal with the librarian as a member of the instructional team, effective use of the LMC, and LMC services to specific academic departments. Reference services, selection and acquisition of materials and equipment, technical processes and circulation, facilities, personnel, and evaluation of program and personnel are also covered. A sample LMC services handbook for teachers, sample specifications for the facility, a list of selection tools, and an annotated bibliography are appended. (LS)
