My School District is currently looking at restructuring our Library/Media
Services Department to become something like "Information Services and
Technology."  This would include possibly changing the role of our current
district computer specialist.  He is now basically in charge of computer
curriculum, hardware, training for teachers, and working with teachers who
have their classes in the lab.  (I apologize to him for forgetting to
mention all of his other duties.)  We are looking at making a systems manager
to manage the computer networks for the district, and I'm not really sure
what else.  The "librarian" jobs will probably remain as they are at the
high school and middle school levels (we have networks and CD-ROM towers
that we manage, etc., etc.).  Currently we have one elementary school
librarian who covers 6 schools, with the help of full-time assistants at
each school.  These jobs could change with the addition of being in charge
of technology at the elementary schools (with the hiring of 5 more
media specialists?)  Please don't quote me if you live in New Hampshire, all
of this is speculative.  My question is this -- and I apologize for taking
so long to get here -- do any of you have situations like I am describing
for our possible future plans, and if so, do you have any job descriptions?
Please e-mail me directly, and I will post a hit if there is interest.
Thank you SO MUCH, and thanks for your patience in reading through my
rather lengthy explanation.
