| contents | Public Library Service for the Urban Disadvantaged. Casey, Genevieve M. And Others Disadvantaged Experimental Programs Librarians Library Education Library Services Program Evaluation Public Libraries Urban Population An experimental program of the master's level to prepare twenty students for public library service to the urban disadvantaged is reported. The institute had two general purposes: (1) to recruit and prepare twenty students to be effective librarians working with the poor in urban public libraries and (2) to test a variety of common assumptions about what constitutes relevant and productive education for service in public libraries of today and tomorrow. This evaluation of the program is aimed at answering two questions: (1) Were the "right" people recruited for the program and (2) Was the curriculum developed the "right" series of experiences through which students could develop attitudes, skills, competencies, and understandings necessary to function as change agents and as creative public librarians. It was demonstrated that librarians from minority groups are in great demand and that highly capable candidates can be recruited. The program's success and failures are assessed in this report for the benefit of the library educators who grapple with the same problems. (Author/NH) |
