- Narrative Evaluation Report On The Institute For Library Technical Assitant Educational Programs At Rutgers University, Graduate School of Library Service, New Brunswick, New Jersey 08903 (August 23 to September 4, 1970). Deininger, Dorothy F. Shaughnessy, Thomas W. Behavioral Objectives Curriculum Design Evaluation Criteria Field Trips Institutes (Training Programs) Library Education Library Technicians Professional Continuing Education Program Evaluation Twenty-five educators participated in a two-week program to study the roles for library technical assistants and the program for their education. Speakers offered introductory and background presentations on the following topics: library education and manpower policy, the qualifications of library technical assistants for various types of libraries, and the influence of political and social factors on library technical assistants. These presentations and discussion among the participants led to the development of a proposed curriculum for the training of library assistants in junior and community colleges. In general, the participants agreed that the program had been fruitful. They noted a new awareness of the technical assistant in libraries and media centers that they could carry back to their regions. Some suggested program modifications were: the program should be extended to a longer period; a more limited objective should be set; and the director's administrative duties should be lessened. Appendixes include brochures, a list of participants and staff, and the ALA Criteria for Programs to Prepare Library Technical Assistants. (CH)
