Administering the School Library Media Center

Since the 1992 publication of the third edition of Administering the School Library Media Center, schools and school libraries have changed significantly. AASL's publication of Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning, with its emphasis on the collaborative teaching role of school media specialists, the increasing importance of information literacy, the proliferation of new technologies, and the introduction of the Internet have all had a significant impact on the administration of school library media centers. This new edition encompasses all of these innovations as it covers the basics of administration, facilities management, selection of materials, staffing, budgeting, organization, and the like. There is much that is all new: all chapters have been reviewed and updated and the text has been carefully reviewed to bring it in line with school libraries of the 21st century. It is aligned with the new AASL national guidelines for school library media.

This book is an introduction, and therefore its purpose is to provide point of entry for those for whom librarianship, as an anticipated career, is only beginning to be understood. But it is also a personal book, as it must be, for no two people view the same scene with identical predispositions and from the same point of view. The author has attempted to broaden its scope by inviting assistance with some of the chapters. But these contributors, too, have brought to their task their own emphases and their own enthusiasms. The book is intended to be not a philosophy of librarianship, but a testament to the depth, richness, and comprehensiveness of librarianship as a career.

The second edition of this work chronicles the contribution that African American librarians have made to librarianship and to the organizations they have built to provide information resources for their people. Like in the first edition published in 1977, chapters on pioneering individuals are juxtaposed with historical descriptions of early organizations. Other sections treat the important contemporary issues of information technology, services to African Americans, and library education. Of special interest is the section on African American resources, which covers archival and fugitive literature, library holdings, oral history programs, and museums, with several chapters on awards. Other features include a completely new section on libraries, library education, and publishing in Africa and a section of information on the role of African Americans in selected areas of the knowledge industry. Of interest to all library professionals, bibliophiles, bibliographers, and students of American culture, this handbook fills a niche in American cultural history.
