TARGET-->Role changes for Elementary Library

[Joan Kimball <wjkim@LLWCNY.LL.PBS.ORG>]

------
------------------
If the library's mission has been to provide reading
incentives for everyone, to provide all types of literary
and informational resources, and to help children and
staff to use resources within the framework of the
curriculum, how do we fulfill our mission now with the
proliferation of materials (even small libraries)
throughout the building?

As teachers creat large collections of uncataloged trade
books, CD ROMs and laserdiscs in classrooms and labs how
does our mission and our role change?  What positive
changes can or should we make?

If this query is answered in the archives, I apologize.
Without a gopher I don't have access to the archives,
but if enough of you reply, I'll post a hit.  TIA.
You'll help me redesign my program.
