Learning Resources Programs That Make a Difference. A Source of Ideas and Models from Exemplary Programs in the Field.
Schmidt, William D.
Case studies for 27 exemplary learning resources programs, varying in scope from the more traditional audiovisual services center to the integrated learning resources center, are presented in this volume. Public tax-supported programs selected by a national survey of learning resources leaders are included. The programs described are classified by institution as: (1) doctorate-granting universities; (2) comprehensive universities and colleges (i.e., institutions that offer a liberal arts program and have one or more professional or occupational programs but lack a doctoral program); (3) two-year colleges and institutes; (4) public school districts; and (5) regional education agencies. In addition to data about the institution and program--e.g., its physical size, enrollment, and faculty--each case study provides a program description and information on budgeting and financial support, current projects/practices, and staffing. Photographs, organizational charts, and floor plans accompany the case studies. Brief descriptions of 14 additional programs, additional information on the case study programs, and an index of learning resources applications, projects, and services conclude this report. (MES)
