Extractions: The Development of School Libraries in South Carolina The following speech was delivered by Margaret Ehrhardt on March 31, 1988 as the Third Annual Deans' Lecture of the University of South Carolina College of Library and Information Science. Ms. Ehrhardt was Supervisor of School Library Services for the South Carolina State Department of Education from 1970 until the early 1980s. THE CRUCIAL YEARS: SCHOOL LIBRARY MEDIA CENTERS The years 1945-1985 were crucial years for school library programs, not only in South Carolina, but for the nation as well. The ALA Handbook for 1944 showed that only 15 states had school library supervisors. It was interesting to note that seven of these were Southern states, including North Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Tennessee. Tonight I should like to explore with you some of the significant events that have helped to shape the development of school library media programs in our state. The first significant factor was the employment by the State Department of Education of the first Supervisor of Library Services. It is seldom that one can pinpoint the beginning of a library media program, but this is not true of school library media services in South Carolina. The date was March 29, 1946, and the time was 11:00. It was then that an announcement was made to the School Library Section of the South Carolina Education Association which was in session at University High School here in Columbia that the State Department of Education had received a grant from the General Education Board (of the Rockefeller Foundation) to employ a Library Supervisor. This was the first attempt to bring structure into what had been haphazard library development in the schools.

As such, it has been designed to merge and reflect Governor James B. Hunt's goal of having North Carolina's schools First in America by 2010. This will be done by supporting and enhancing the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's mission of high student achievement; safe and orderly schools; quality professionals; effective, efficient operations; and community and family support. High Student Performance Technology is a tool that enables teachers and administrators to work more productively, offering solutions for time management, student monitoring and intervention, and more interesting and effective lessons and classroom activities. Technology is a tool that enables students to interact with and explore the world, bringing a wealth of information and experiences into the classroom, thus potentially overcoming geographical isolation, physical barriers, and economic hardships. Technology is a tool that encourages student creativity and self-direction and helps students develop skills that prepare them for responsible citizenship within the nation and world. Ultimately, technology is a tool that helps every teacher and student be successful

As a society, we have become numb to the senseless anonymous violence in the impoverished urban war zones of the big cities of the North. But beginning in 1997, lethal violence began to invade the heartland of the country from Fayetteville, NC to Columbine, CO. These killings seemed particularly senseless. People want to know why this is happening, and how to prevent it...
