Working Paper, ACRL Ad Hoc Committee to Revise the 1959 "Standards for College Libraries". Totten, Herman L. Accreditation (Institutions) College Libraries Higher Education Library Associations Library Research Library Standards Literature Reviews Tables (Data) A review of the literature on college library standards was conducted in order to tabulate the elements found in the latest statements of accrediting agencies and library organizations. First, the published standards and guidelines of library associations and accrediting agencies were considered individually. A chart was devised for tabulating these 16 publications against 20 elements possible for inclusion in standards. Information from two studies of accrediting agencies was also examined and tabulated in a similar way. These studies considered requirements for libraries made by 21 accrediting organizations in such areas as law, business, health, etc. The elements most often checked on both charts were: resources, staff, financies, services, facilities, and administration.
