contents Staff Training for Automation in ARL Libraries. SPEC Kit 109. Wilding, Tom Academic Libraries Computer Literacy Higher Education Library Automation Library Personnel Library Planning Library Surveys Needs Assessment Policy Program Descriptions Research Libraries Staff Development Training Based on the results of a June 1984 survey of 30 Association of Research Library (ARL) member libraries, this kit contains documents related to automation training programs for ARL library staff members. A summary of survey results indicates that few libraries performed formal needs assessments before embarking on programs related to automation training; 14 libraries are planning or have already implemented plans to provide basic training in automation; and only one library in which a specific automated system has been installed requires training for all staff members. The survey form is provided, and the following documents are included: (1) policies and program plans from the University of California at San Diego, Emory University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Missouri, and Stanford University; (2) needs assessments from the University of Missouri and Massachusetts Institute of Technology; (3) staff development program announcements and descriptions from New York University, the University of Tennessee, Emory University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and (4) staff training and trainers' manuals from New York University, Princeton University, Stanford University, the University of Texas, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. An eight-item bibliography and an ARI Systems and Procedures Exchange Center (SPEC) kit evaluation form are also provided. (KM)
