Extractions: (Continued) Philosophy, Structure and Theoretical Base Librarianship is, first and foremost, a service profession. Librarians are concerned with the organization of collections of documents (physical documents such as books, journals, manuscripts, musical scores, prints, etc.) and facilitating their use by clients. Their tasks concern continually selecting from the growing record, organizing and maintaining the collection (bibliographic control), developing and maintaining the tools enabling them and their clients to determine what is in the collection and where it is (increasingly as well determining what is available in virtual collections and how to obtain material not owned), and providing reference service to guide clients in their use of records in and beyond the library's collection. The Master of Science in Library Science program prepares students for professional employment in information and library service. The degree is designed to educate students for work involving the collection, organization, storage, and retrieval of recorded knowledge for a variety of individuals and groups. Analysis and design skills are emphasized. Curriculum Structure The curriculum of the Master of Science in Library Science is a 48-credit hour program, designed around five functional areas: organization, collection and retrieval, communication, design and evaluation, and management. Basic computing knowledge is an entrance requirement. Elective courses build upon required courses in each of these areas.

Extractions: Curriculum/workplace-appropriate resources are necessary for the effective use of technology in the school system. Whether on-line information, networked application software, or software that resides on stand-alone computers, resources must be available on an as-needed basis to encourage effective curriculum-specific research and workplace use. Effective, efficient operations depend on how well the system resources are selected and utilized. All schools have a media advisory committee that uses the Selection of Instructional Material policy (9.6100/11.9200) as a guide for acquiring resources. A copy of this policy may be found in Appendix E. The Person County School system has been fortunate to partner with four other North Carolina school systems in the ABC Technology Challenge Grant. This alliance has provided $750,000 in funding that has directly or indirectly provided considerable growth in all technology resources. Although now included as free services within NC WISE OWL, electronic resources such as Scholastic on-line resources and on-line encyclopedias were acquired by grant schools and in use prior to the current service provided by the state.

Extractions: Students Jareau, Rakeya, and Adam reading "Why Mosquitos Buzz" outside the Durham County Library When Matthew Mickens' science teacher recommended him for the Library Youth Partnership Program, he didn't know what he was getting into. The senior from Hillside High School in Durham, North Carolina, had to interview last year for one of 12 coveted spots for the young teen training and employment program that marries science, literature, and fun. Run collaboratively by Durham's Museum of Life and Science, the Durham County Public Library, and two high school media centers, the Library Youth Partnership lets adolescents earn while they learn to create and deliver storytime presentations for younger children. Matthew thought working with other teens and training at the Museum would be fun. He did not know that it would also lead to a paid part-time position with the library. He said, "I was interested in it, and then I just fell in love with the program."
