Background In the spring of 2000, Gail Bailey, Chief of the School Library Services Branch at the Maryland State Department of Education, recommended that a group of school library media administrators study the feasibility of forming a statewide consortium to take advantage of cost-effective licensing of fee-based online services for K-12 schools in Maryland. A survey was prepared by Della Curtis, Coordinator of Library Information Services, Baltimore County Public Schools. The survey of local education agencies in Maryland showed that many are licensing online services, the costs are not consistent throughout Maryland, and the costs are too high for some counties to afford. Licensing or access fees for electronic resources may constitute a major portion of a district-level or local school budget. However, through a consortium buying arrangement, the discounts for these services are quite significant. For example, the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction estimated that the cost of providing Wisconsin's

Maryland MacArthur Project Teacher Education Reform: To maintain the progress of K-16 science education reform, future science teachers will need deep and interconnected knowledge of their subjects. This will enable educators to align science teaching with learning goals. Teacher education should be designed to produce science teachers who are committed to increasing understanding of connections between science, mathematics, and technology as well as understanding of the social, historical, and philosophical contexts of scientific knowledge. Science curricula should stress the key concepts of science, their observational basis, and the history of their development. Science-teacher education must engage students in discussions about substantive issues of teaching and learning closely connected with the everyday work of teaching. This work should take place in K-12 schools where the best science teaching practice is in place. In response to the need for reform of science teacher education, a collaborative effort has been initiated among the Center for Science and Mathematics Education, College of Science and Mathematics at Towson University (TU), the
