10. Legislation Proposed To Set Standards For Library Media Centers: Fact Sheet FACT SHEET massachusetts school Library media centers. THE PROBLEM massachusetts education policy makers are not supporting the power of school library media centers to help students achieve. http://www.mslma.org/legislation/legislationfactsheet01.html

FACT SHEET: Massachusetts School Library Media Centers THE PROBLEM: Massachusetts education policy makers are not supporting the power of school library media centers to help students achieve. There is great inequity in access to quality literature, information and library professionals in schools throughout the state. Of the fifty (50) U.S. states, Massachusetts ranks: in providing its public school students with state-certified library media specialists, in teachers who agree that school library materials are adequate to support educational objectives, in providing its public schools with school libraries and in mean circulation per pupil per school of all library materials. The 1999 Simmons Study of MA School Library Media Centers found that: of Massachusetts elementary schools did not have full-time library professionals on staff, of public schools did not have a library media center, an average of $12.00 per child is spent for school library books – less than half the average cost of one hardcover children’s book. The MA Department of Education has no administrator designated to provide leadership and set standards for school library media programs statewide.

14. Library Media Program Objectives, Librarian Responsibilities, And Evaluation Form, from the Beyond Proficiency document of the Kentucky school media Association massachusetts Standards for school Library media centers. http://www.wlma.org/Professional/responsibilities.htm

Library Media Program Objectives : Defining the Librarian's Responsibilities and Evaluation Objectives Objectives for school library media programs adhere to the concepts found in the Information Power guidelines . Defining objectives is a function of the school library media specialist in partnership with administrators, teachers, staff, students, and parents. Objectives for the program become the school librarian's responsibility within the school and the library. The school librarian's evaluation should be based on the performance of those defined responsibilites. Here are some examples of program objectives that a school library media center might have, illustrated with sample action items (the school librarian's responsibilities). Learning and Teaching Objective: We will provide resources and activities to promote student achievement and teacher knowledge, working collaboratively to help students achieve the Washington State Essential Academic Learning Requirements and district learning requirements. (Sample action items here) Information Access and Delivery Objective We will provide access to information technologies, print resources, and systems, working collaboratively to help students and teachers achieve academic and personal success.

NEW JAMA STUDY: MANAGED CARE COMPETITION AFFECTS ABILITY OF MEDICAL SCHOOLS, TEACHING HOSPITALS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH Separate Task Force Report Reveals NIH Provides Inadequate Support of Direct and Indirect Costs of Research Conducted at Academic Health Centers For more information, please call: LINDA LORANGER TEL 301-652-1558 lindalo@burnessc.com JANET FIRSHEIN TEL 301-652-1558 janet@burnessc.com WASHINGTON, DC, March 23, 1999 Despite significant growth in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) budget, new analyses have found that medical schools and teaching hospitals in highly competitive markets are experiencing difficulty in conducting research and securing federal research grants. A study in the March 24 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association shows that medical schools and teaching hospitals—known as academic health centers (AHCs)—in highly competitive markets have fewer discretionary funds to support research than their counterparts in markets not dominated by managed care. In fact, internal funding for research was almost twice as high for AHCs in less competitive markets such as Chicago or Atlanta (6.1 percent of total funds) than it was in more competitive markets such as Minneapolis–St. Paul or San Diego (2.5 percent of total funds). The study indicates that this discrepancy is cause for concern given that many researchers are highly dependent on internal funding for their work.
