RE: List #1 -   Management and Administration or Administrative Duties or
Leader, Planner and Manager.  These are the choices we have so far. Any
preferences?

I browsed through the archives to make sure I had not missed anyone's
comment on this topic.  Next, I examined Ruth Rogers' extensive
compilation of tasks that librarians do (posted 11 Jan in archives) and
Susan Allison's MEMA job description (posted 12 Jan).  Whew!  I then
proceeded down the lists indicating what *might* be under the
administrative heading, but I may have missed some and I may have included
some that others do not agree with.  Shall I proceed to enter and to post?
And I will then *count* on all of you professionals out there to edit the
list.

But, I noticed a message from Debbie Abilock asking for software
availability so everyone can work on this document together. I don't know
about any software, however . . .

I have one suggestion; everyone who is interested could forward Ruth's
list to me with one letter abbreviations placed in front of each task
indicating where the task should be placed (keeping in mind I am
responsible for compiling the management list :-)


                MA  - Management and Administration
                T   - Technical Service
                I   - Instructional Process
                P   - Professional Responsibilities
                IP  - Interpersonal Relationships  (?)

                        or

                L   - Leader, Planner and Manager
                T   - Teacher
                I   - Information Specialist*

*I like this set because we keep talking about our roles.

Ruth, Michele, et al. would you direct me, please?
Thanks.
