Library Directors

[lois smits <loismits@FREENET.MACATAWA.ORG>]

I had a meeting with our school superintendent yesterday.  We discussed
the future of our K-12 media center program.  He questioned the wisdom of
having a K-12 media director withother individuals working in the five
buildings in our system.  I didn't ask if they would be certified media
specialists but my question for all of you is what do you think?  Are
there any school districts that have a media director?  Does he/she
function as MS in any of the schools or is it an adminstrative position?
I am not sure of the direction our administration wants to go with this
but I did emphasize the inportance of finding out what other schools have
and how their hierarchy works.   Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks.
