Thanks to all of you who have used this site over the last seven years. Also, thank you to James Madison University for providing the computer services required to provide this site. I'm grateful. JMU people are WONDERFUL. In particular, I appreciate the support of Dr. Linwood Rose, JMU's President, and Dr. Ronald E. Carrier, JMU's Past-President. For the last seven years, I have tried to maintain this site as an aid to educators. In this seven years, I have received no remuneration of any kind. Like so many Internet site providers, I am overwhelmed with objectionable e-mail. People are even using my e-mail to bombard other sites with viruses. Recently, I became aware that others were taking my work for profit. Thank you to all you educators, especially you school librarians, who are educating our youth. I know how hard you work.

Back to Survey VEMA Survey: The Budget Results Home In the Mediagram's last issue an overview of the VEMA sponsored survey "The Status of School Library Media Specialists in Virginia" was printed. Dr. Linda Wilson, now retired Associate Professor in the Educational Media/Technology program at Radford University, administered this survey. With the end of the school year approaching and next year's budget in place it might be helpful in planning operational expenses to examine the following results to budgetary questions in the survey. In what range does your total media center's annual budget fall? (Include local, state, and federal sources.) TABLE 6 Budget Frequency Percent Less than $1000 More than $30,000 Frequency missing = 13 Comments : About a third of the respondents indicated that their annual budget is between $5001 and $10,000, making this answer the most frequently chosen from the choices given. Considering the escalating cost of books and the additional funds needed for technology, it is appalling to think there are even a small number of school libraries (10 respondents in this survey) that operate with annual budgets under $1000.

Back to Publications Home Preparing Students For A World of Information School Library Media Specialists... are key players in preparing students for a world of information. Library Media Specialists help prepare students with information literacy skills that will last a lifetime. As recommended in the ALA publication, Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning , Library Media Specialists promote the following: Information Literacy Accessing information efficiently Evaluating information critically Using information effectively Independent Learning Pursuing information for personal interests Appreciating literature Social Responsibility Recognizing importance of information to democracy Practicing ethical behavior Participating effectively in groups Are Library Media Specialists important to schools? Patricia Taylor, Assistant Superintendent of Instruction in the Frederick County Public Schools, remembers a special librarian during her career. A special librarian who "invited all staff-and especially her principal-into an understanding of how to do our work more effectively. That librarian and many after her have reminded me of the power of a place in a school where all of us who are there to teach and to learn can come together and find the resources to do our best." Mrs. Taylor was speaking of Clara Beard, now retired and living in Richmond, who said, "If children can read and comprehend, they can have anything they want. When we serve children, we serve the future. They are our immortality."

ED372759 May 94 The Impact of School Library Media Centers on Academic Achievement. ERIC Digest. Author: Lance, Keith Curry ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology, Syracuse, NY. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC INTRODUCTION Advocates of school library media programs have long been convinced of the relationship between quality library media programs and academic achievement. Most studies of this relationship were conducted between 1959 and 1979, were limited in scope, and usually used a small number of subjects in a limited geographical area. This study was designed both to update the existing research and to examine the relationship between library media programs and student achievement. METHODOLOGY Ideally, schools included in the sample for a study such as this would be selected on a random, stratified, or quota basis. None of these sampling designs was possible, because schools included in the sample had to have library media centers that responded to the 1989 survey of school library media centers in Colorado and had to use the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) or Tests of Achievement and Proficiency (TAP). These data were available for only 221 of 1,331 public elementary and secondary schools in Colorado during the 1988-89 school year. The study relied entirely upon available data about school library media centers and their school and community contexts to predict norm-referenced test scores.

Media Centers The Library Media Center is sometimes call the "hub" of the school. The purpose of the LMC is to serve the student body and faculty by providing books, magazines, newspapers, pamphlets, audio-visual materials and machines which may be useful for the various courses offered in the school; to give personal service to those who seek information concerning those materials; and to promote better reading habits. It is the desire of the librarians to create an atmosphere conducive to study, courtesy, good citizenship, and cooperation which are expected from all students. The LMC provides help and enjoyment for all. It can only do so when all show consideration for others. This means returning books promptly, handling materials with care, and returning them to their proper places. It means observing common courtesy by avoiding loud talking or any other disturbance which makes it difficult for people to concentrate, PEQUEA VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY MEDIA CENTER Mrs. Virginia Kuklewski - Librarian

Editors: Barbie Shelby bselby@virginia.edu Earlene Viano Virginia Libraries Volume 45, Number 1 DLA Ejournal Home VALib Home Table of Contents for this issue Search VAlib and other ejournals Library Instruction in K-12 Schools by Lisa Denton A school library media center is a very busy place. In It are students, teachers, and library media Specialists as well as books, reference tools, audiovisual and electronic resources. There is but a single motivation in bringing all these factors together: the effective access and use of information and ideas. The new Information Power II (American Library Association, 1998) informs the school librarian that the mission of the library media program is to "ensure that students and staff are effective users of ideas and information." In the swiftly moving world of information, library instruction must now be fashioned to achieve that goal. Librarians with files full of lesson plans on the illustrious Mr. Dewey and the Reader's Guide have found themselves waking up on the wrong side of the bed with the new dawning of curriculum integration of library skills. It is widely accepted that library skills should not be taught in isolation. Collaboration is now the shape of library instruction. This type of library instruction integrates Information Literacy Skills with the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOLs). Information Literacy Skills are enumerated in the publication Information Literacy Standards for Student Learning prepared by the American Association of School Librarians with the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (ALA, 1998). They are designed to provide school librarians and teachers with a framework for information proficiency, student achievement and life-long learning skills. They address those skills necessary for proficiency in three main areas: information literacy, independent learning, and social responsibility.
