Steven Hofmann and Karen Sheets have also played important roles
in making the 2000 SLMR possible.

best of ERIC, and more.  We hope to have features for dissertations
and professional publications coming along in the next few months.

Four articles are posted in full-text for Vol. 3 and at least four

to launch Vol. 4 in January 2001.

The Role of the Principal in a Information Literate School Community:
        Design and Administration of an International Research Project.
        Dianne Oberg, Lyn Hay, and James Henri
        Support of the principal is a key factor in the implementation
        of effective programs in schools. One of the unique features
        of this international study was the use of online data
        collection and analysis techniques.  In part one, the researchers
        describe the design and administration of the study.

        Cross-Country Comparisons from an International Research Project
        Dianne Oberg, Lyn Hay, and James Henri
        An international research project conducted in Australia,
        Canada, Finland, France, Japan, Scotland, and South Korea

School and Public Library Relationships: Essential Ingredients in
        Implementing Educational Reforms and Improving Student
        Learning
        Shirley A. Fitzgibbons
        One of four manuscripts commissioned by the U. S. Department
        of Education which will be published through SLMR.
        This paper explores the range of successful, cooperative
        relationships between public libraries and school library
        media centers.  The author delineates factors that need
        to be considered when building successful relationships.

Children's Search Engines form an Information Search Process Perspective
        Elana Broch
        Two search engines are profiled.  Some of the difficulties
        children have searching the Web are discussed in the
        context of Kuhlthau's Information Search Process (ISP)
        model.

SLMR is indexed by H. W. Wilson and ERIC.
