1 FTE clerical- who also does all our entries into our OPAC, budget,
ordering, etc. and 1 PT clerical-who does our overdues also

Video previews and purchasing, off-air taping, cable TV to classrooms
through our office, overhead projectors, bulbs. Kind of whatever details
the teacher needs we try to help with.

TV/VCR units, overheads, there will be some computer peripherals available
to teachers. Students can use videos and equipment in school only,
because teachers do not want them to sign out instructional videos.

We work closely with the teacher in charge of technology and plan with
her, but we also function independently.

Really, the just-in-time help describes our services.
