BookWhere 76 PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA TO BE AUTOMATED WITH SIRS MANDARIN M3 SIRS Mandarin, Inc. announces that 76 public schools in Indianapolis, Indiana will be automating their library collections with the SIRS Mandarin M3 Library Automation System. SIRS Mandarin was selected the library automation vendor of choice by the Indianapolis Public School District, which serves more than 45,000 students. The contract includes the M3 networkable Core Package, district-wide Internet access and training. The school district also plans to convert approximately half a million records contained in its district-wide union file using SIRS Mandarin¹s retrospective conversion services. "The Indianapolis Public School District is excited about converting our media centers to the M3 system. It will increase and improve our opportunities to service and assist our students, staff and community using state-of-the-art software," stated Donna Smith, Program Coordinator of the Indianapolis Public School District media centers. A selection committee composed of high school media directors, elementary and middle school media specialists, the district technical services and instructional media reviewed automation software from seven companies before choosing M3. "We tried not only to find the latest features on the market," explained Smith, "but also features which were unique to the needs of Indianapolis public schools."

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.
