Re: flex.sched. literature?

Hi Amy,

I just went flexible scheduling in my K-6 media center this past year. I
found Jan Buchanan's book "Flexible Access Library Media Programs" very
helpful. It is published by Libraries Unlimited, Inc. of Englewood, Colorado.
I had 2 presentations to my staff before we went flexible. One that i
explained how I felt it would benefit us and one from a media specialist
at another school that had gone flexible the year before.

Good Luck
