Necessary Computer/Tech. skills

[Corey Hansen <crhansen@STUDENTS.WISC.EDU>]

Greetings,

This is my first posting to LM_NET so I hope I have followed protocol
correctly.

I am a graduate student in Library and Information Studies hoping to be a
school media specialist when I finish the program.

I am in a summer school class and am seeking information about the
technical and computer related skills that school media specialists should
possess in order to carry out their jobs successfully.  I realize this will
vary from district to district because of size and staffing differences,
but I am simply gathering data at this point.  I would greatly appreciate
answers to the following questions from willing individuals:

1) If you were writing a job description for your current position, what
technical/computer oriented skills would you put into it as desired or
necessary?

2) What technology related personnel is your district currently employing
(MIS, tech. support, etc.)?

3) How large is your school district? ( estimated numbers of students or
buildings)

Thanks much.
