Extractions: Monday - Friday 7:15 A.M. to 2:45 P.M. The Library Media Services Department at Greater Lowell Tech contains one of the largest and most comprehensive collections in a technical secondary school in the country. It provides students with a wide variety of resources that are integrated into the curriculum and learning activities to help them become lifelong learners and discriminating users of information. There are four library/media centers at Greater Lowell Tech. The main one, the IMC (Instructional Media Center) is located on the third floor in the center of the building. Each of the three satellite media centers, SMCs, are located in a technical cluster. They are the Business/Graphics SMC, Construction/Automotive SMC, and the Personal Services/Health SMC. They hold print material for technical areas of instruction, as well as video carrels and computers, each connected system wide to a main source. The IMC contains material for the school's academic areas of study, as well as, general reference material and current periodicals. Additionally this area houses the Television Studio, Media Retrieval Center (which sends video programs out school wide), the Computer Resource Center, and the Media Preparation Room (photography, laminating, transparencies, cataloging of materials, etc.). The Media Center is a member of the Northeast Massachusetts Regional Library System

Extractions: School districts define the function of a library and the role of the library media specialist in a variety of ways. As a youngster growing up in Medford, Oregon, and graduating from its school system, I did not have an opportunity to meet a "real" librarian until entering junior high school in grade 7. In elementary school, classroom teachers filled the narrowly defined role of the librarian, which at the time was simply to assist students in checking out library books. In 1985, after a 16 year absence, I returned to Medford and became superintendent of schools. At that time, I found that the function of the library had remained basically the same, that is, a warehouse of books, but support for those responsible to oversee it had deteriorated even more. Classroom teachers had minimal involvement in the library. Non-certified staff, with no formal training in instruction, no child development background, no knowledge of reading levels of students, and no course work in libraries were ordering library books and checking them out to students. A concerted effort to place certified library media specialists in the district's thirteen elementary schools, two middle schools, and two high schools began in 1986 and was completed in 1990. At the same time, the classified employees previously assigned to the library media center were retained and inserviced to support the program to ensure that the certified library media specialists had time to perform the duties for which they had been trained.

The Safetyzone | State School Safety Centers CommunitiesSafe schools Model, technical assistance, publications, web site, information house, media campaign, and a oregon State school Safety Center http://www.safetyzone.org/state_centers.html
Extractions: In an effort to address the immediate concerns of the Colorado education community, the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence (CSPV) introduced the Safe Communities-Safe Schools initiative in the fall of 1999. This project will consist of the following strategies that will be available to all school communities in Colorado: information about the Safe Communities-Safe Schools Model, technical assistance, publications, web site, information house, media campaign, and a long-term response plan. The SSCC seeks to stimulate discussion, collaboration and action against youth violence by bringing schools, police, youth-serving agencies, the judicial system, and other interested parties together in a statewide collaboration. The coalition, formed in 1994, involves more than 1,500 educators, police, and youth workers in activities and stimulates the creation of community-based violence prevention coalitions. It has assisted schools in developing new violence prevention programs and facilitated networking and information sharing among members through bimonthly forums, major conferences, training seminars, task groups, youth involvement, and in-depth consultation and technical assistance to schools and communities.

Extractions: Encyclopedias, dictionaries, atlases and specialized reference works form the backbone of a high school print reference collection. Most high school library media centers are equipped with standard reference resources, depending upon the size of their student body, curriculum specialty areas and, of course, budgetary limitations. Currency is often an issue because of financial constraints. Often gaps in collections occur because of budget shortfalls or changes in priorities. Purchases of high cost reference materials may be deferred in place of electronic or online resources. This may result in a spotty reference collection quite difficult to reinstate. Vertical files are often an important part of the reference section. Students are apt to use print encyclopedias, biographical dictionaries and atlases when large classes visit the library and electronic resources are limited. General reference materials in science, history, literature and art are used heavily for research papers. Specialized reference tools like "CQ Researcher" are helpful for current interest topics or for the student who needs suggestions for a paper concept. Students with specific research needs consult quotation books and poetry indexes in a limited way.

Departments High School Outreach Program: Information for Teachers and Media Specialists The Oregon Institute of Technology Library welcomes visits from high schools in the Klamath Basin. The Library's Outreach Program was created to promote collaboration with high school media specialists and classroom teachers. Our goal is to develop students' research skills and appreciation of the power of information. Library teaching efforts focus on the use of library resources, qualitative evaluation of information, and electronic search techniques. OIT librarians provide tours of the facility as well as hands-on class instruction in the use of traditional and electronic information resources. The program gives students the opportunity for guided exploration and use of an academic library. Make arrangements for the visit/instruction session at least two weeks prior to the scheduled date. OIT student use of the library must be our priority, therefore high school tours and instruction will not be available during peak-use hours or during OIT's Dead or Finals weeks.
