contents A Study of the Library Skills Instruction of Entering Freshmen to St. Francis Seminary High School. Fischer, Denise Reineke Elementary Education Elementary Schools Grade 9 High School Students Library Instruction Library Skills Masters Theses Middle Schools Using a 40-student sample from the entering freshmen class of St. Francis Seminary High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, the library skills instruction in elementary and secondary schools was evaluated. A questionnaire was sent to 61 schools previously attended by the students in the sample to gather information on their library instruction programs. The subjects were given a reading test and a library skills test early in the term prior to any library instruction. No significant difference could be determined between the library skills of students who had received formal library instruction and those who were trained informally, although it was shown that formally-trained students scored higher in some areas. Because of the general lack of library skills, formal training at the secondary level was recommended. A 33-item bibliography and the questionnaires and quizzes used in the study are appended. (PF)
