This report describes a study undertaken to identify the salaries and related characteristics of school library administrative personnel in Kansas during 1978-1979. Information was gathered through a survey questionnaire sent to 24 persons who were designated as full-time school library media directors (SLMDs). Seventeen SLMDs responded, supplying data on their annual salaries, monthly salaries, years employed as SLMDs, educational attainment, school district enrollment, certification, and other details. The report reviews related literature on the compensation of administrative and supervisory personnel, describes the survey methodology, and presents findings, interpretations, conclusions, and recommendations. A bibliography lists relevant ERIC documents, books, dissertations, and theses. Data are displayed in tabular form, and a copy of the survey questionnaire is provided. (FM)
