Book The Impact of Subscription Electronic Resources on Selection Decisions by Media Specialists and Utilization Practices by Teachers and Students in Elementary Library Media Centers

Download or read book The Impact of Subscription Electronic Resources on Selection Decisions by Media Specialists and Utilization Practices by Teachers and Students in Elementary Library Media Centers written by Seamus B. Eddy and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Media specialists' selection decisions for collection development determine the materials found in elementary library media centers and schools. Our study examined the extent to which subscription electronic resources (SERs) effect elementary media specialists' selection decisions. Subscription electronic resources also must be effectively utilized by teachers and students. Therefore, we also determined to what extent teachers and students effectively utilize SERs in elementary library media centers. Results indicated that SERs did not have a major effect on media specialists' selection decisions for other materials in elementary library media center collections. We also found that media specialists do not prioritize adding additional SERs with existing SERs. The SERs generally do not have a significant influence on the addition of many materials specifically designed to supplement the use of SERs or superseding other materials found in elementary library media centers. Findings also showed that although SERs support school curriculum, they are only marginally utilized by teachers and students. Elementary library media centers were also found to have adequate technological hardware and support personnel for use of SERs. The results of this study provide a foundation for future research related to SERs impact on media specialists' selection decisions and on the effective utilization of SERs by teachers and students in library media centers.

This book was released on 2021-01-02 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1.1 Preamble Schools are the production centres endowed with the noble responsibility of producing learned, civilized and worthy citizens of a country Every school has its own plan of action with a set of well-designed curriculum objectives. The aim of the school is not just academic achievement of the students, rather the development of overall personality of them. And so, emphasis is being given on scholastic, co-scholastic and non-scholastic skills of the students. Libraries in the schools are the strong supporting centres which supplement and complement the accomplishment of the objectives set forth by their parental bodies. They are the knowledge facilitation points in every school. According to the U.S. Commission on Libraries and Information Science (2005), “Students in schools with good school libraries learn more, get better grades, and score higher on standardized test scores”(p.4). As Ranganthan(1962) quoted ‘ The result of modern re-thinking on education is to make the library the heart of the school, from which every activity in the school radiates and by which it all gets irradiated’. International Association of School Librarianship (IASL) Policy statement on school libraries remarks that the school library is essential to "the development of the human personality as well as the spiritual, moral, social, cultural and economic progress of the community"(p.1).
