We are conducting research on sexual issues in books in the libraries of
Middle and High Schools - grades 7 through 12.  This seems to be a very
neglected area in the research.  All responses are confidential. Identifiers
will be grade levels and geographic area.
Please respond to the following survey and return directly to
jamoinet@hotmail.com or rabook@aol.com (Jo Ann and Ruth Ann).  Thanks.

Are you the librarian of your school?  Number of years experience?
1. Does formal sex education happen in your school?  If so, in what
department?
2. Do you exclude books from your library on certain issues?  If so, which
issues?  Why?
3. Do you have current books on sexual issues in your library (fiction and
non-fiction)?
4. Do you limit access or checkout to any grade or classification of your
school population?
5. How do you use books on sexual issues in your library?  Ex:  booktalks,
displays, circulation, individual recommendation, etc.
6. Do you work with your school counselors, social workers and/or P.E.
teachers to use books that you have available on sexual issues for
bibliography?
OPTIONAL-
Give names of books you would suggest or recommend on the following topics:
