  • Report to the National Interest Council: March 7 and September 15, 1972. Brooks, Jean Adult Education Community Involvement Continuing Education Centers Educational Programs Independent Study Libraries Library Role Library Services Public Libraries To outline what has been accomplished within the first six months period of the Independent Study Project (ISP) without delineating minute detail is the purpose of this report. While it is a "state of the art" report, it should be recognized that a continual trial and error and evaluation process has been and is still being engaged in by all participants. The SMU faculty's interest and cooperation in the total project and the empathy of those who have conducted workshops and provided tutorial guidance have greatly enhanced the image of ISP. The statistical sheet which indicates College-Level Examination material requested, number and types of inquiries, and the number of study guides taken is attached. A copy of the first workshop schedule is also attached. At the end of the first six months of ISP it is obvious that tremendous numbers of independent students rushing through the library doors is not happening. No one knows how many independent students should be expected to come through those library doors. It is too early to say more than that the Project has been a stimulating library learning experience. (Related documents are: LI003916, 003917, and 003919). (Author/NH)
