contents Information Retrieval and Dissemination Center. Final Project Report 1968-71. Information Centers Information Dissemination Information Retrieval Information Services Library Cooperation Public Libraries School Libraries The Information Retrieval and Dissemination Center of Levittown, New York, was created in September 1968 and funded through ESEA Title II and Title III as a joint pilot exemplary project of Union Free School District 5 and the Levittown Public Library. It was established to provide teachers with a quantity of material to be used in a classroom situation so that students would be exposed to a variety of sources and would not be limited to the viewpoint expressed by their textbooks. The project was also designed to make readily available to students copies of material from several sources for detailed study at home rather than having them spend hours copying information from a few sources in the library. This final report of the project contains a summary of the findings, description of the services, objectives of the center, an evaluation of the project, and conclusions and recommendations.
