Public Library - School Library or Both?

[L Stahl <readingranch@YAHOO.COM>]

Fellow LM_Netters,



        My high school library used to be (and technically still is) classified

as a community library.  A person from my central office is really

pushing us to renew our commitment to that end.  I would love to have

suggestions, ideas, or any advice about having the HS library also function

as the community library.  We do have a community library about 5 miles

from here.  Does anyone else exist under these cricumstances?

        When we had a visit from the comptroller last year, we were below

acceptable standards already on our collection numbers.  I would love to

know how someone else makes this work well for the community and more

importantly for the students at the school.



TIA,



Lacy Stahl
