| contents | New Media in Public Libraries; a Survey of Current Practices. Brown, James W. Audiotape Recordings Audiovisual Aids Case Studies Educational Media Film Libraries Films Library Extension Library Services Library Surveys Public Libraries State Libraries Television Over 200 brief reports and some 85 case studies, developed from responses to a national questionnaire, report the state of the art for new media activities in public libraries. Through these case studies of large and small libraries throughout the United States, a picture of public library use of television, audio programs, mediamobiles, plus all types of film is presented. Some of the library activity descriptions are rather general; others are quite specific. All reveal an interest in expanding media use; many indicate the clientele toward which the new media service has been directed; some also present cost and evaluation efforts. Survey responses are organized by state. The case study material is organized in media-specific groupings. A list of 25 sources of additional information is appended. (KB) |
