  • Illinois Task Analysis Project: Phase II, A Study. Ricking, Myrl Administration Job Analysis Labor Force Development Librarians Occupational Information Public Libraries Task Analysis Validity The primary objective of this study was to test the validity of the American Library Association policy statement on Library Education and Manpower by applying it to the tasks described in Phase I of the Illinois Task Analysis Project. (Available as ED 040 723.) A Model was to be developed in which the tasks would be arranged in accordance with the definitions established in the policy statement, on the basis of the consultant's experience and judgement and bearing in mind the scaling of all appropriate factors by SERD (Social, Educational Research and Development, Inc.). This would be the exact process which would have to be followed by an administrator attempting to apply the new manpower policy in an individual library, and the result, besides serving as a test of the policy's validity, should also serve as a demonstration to administrators of how to make such application to positions in their own libraries. The study was based on public libraries. The list of tasks indicating the sort into categories upon which the report is based is an appendix to the study.
