Extractions: Metro Nashville Public Schools participate in a consortium of libraries in the middle Tennessee area. The consortium, known as Nashville Area Library Alliance (NALA), includes many academic libraries, the Tennessee State Library and Archives, and the Public Library of Nashville-Davidson County. The first project of NALA is Project Athena , a joint listing of resources of the participating libraries. Metro Nashville Schools connect to Project Athena through a partnership with the Nashville Public Library. Each school library media center can obtain an institutional borrowing card and can borrow items from the Public Library or academic libraries in the area. The items are delivered directly to the school library media center by the school delivery system and are returned to the lending library the same way. Future plans call for the holdings of the school library media centers to be listed in Web compatible format. This will allow students and faculty to search the online card catalogs of their school and the other schools in Nashville Public Schools. The school district will then be a full partner in the project. To connect to Project Athena through the Nashville Public Library

Extractions: The Impact of the Indymedia Movement When the World Trade Organization met in Seattle in November 1999, hundreds of journalists and thousands of protesters converged on the city. The journalists represented, by and large, a handful of corporate media organizations, while the protesters represented a diverse group of interests with complaints against the WTO and its policies. Concerned that the major news organizations would fail to cover the WTO protests adequately, if at all, a group of Seattle media activists planned a proactive approach. Months prior to the WTO meeting, they formed the Independent Media Center (or Indymedia). They gathered donations, organized volunteers, registered a Web site, www.indymedia.org , and set up a newsroom with computers, Internet lines, digital editing systems and streaming audio and video. When the WTO showed up, Indymedia offered volunteer journalists a place to file stories, photos, and videos of the protests and upload them to the Web. As Indymedia's behind-the-scenes reports of the protests came online, "an amazing thing happened," reported the Christian Science Monitor.

Extractions: Eileen Maxwell IMLS Responds to Challenge to Help Children Learn Washington, D.C.-Museums and libraries across the country are welcoming America's students back to school. With increasing frequency, schools and school districts are tapping museums and libraries to help teach and enrich the K-12 curriculum. Some students whose schools link their curricula with nearby museums and libraries are even reporting scoring higher on standardized tests. Launching his annual America Goes Back to School effort, U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley is calling for greater community involvement in education: " America Goes Back to School is a special time for communities to reaffirm their commitment to learning and education." By providing crucial Federal support (grants and technical assistance) to the nation's museums and libraries to carry out their educational mission, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) reaffirms its commitment to learning. Museums and libraries are natural partners in education. IMLS recently funded a nationwide survey, "True Needs, True Partners," which found that 88 percent of museums provide K-12 educational programming. Seventy percent have at least one full-time paid staff member who administers K-12 educational programs. Museums report substantial use of school curriculum standards in shaping educational programs for a variety of school subjects. IMLS grants for musuem-school partnerships have involved 82,000 students, 228 schools, and 82 museums.

Extractions: by Barbara I. Dewey, Dean of Libraries, University of Tennessee How can we provide access to several hundred songs to 1,300 students who enroll annually in the History of Rock course? This was the initial question to be answered by the University of Tennessee (UT). The answer ended up to be two workable models and accompanying collaborative spaces for production and creation of digital media content for the campusthe Digital Media Service and the Studio. Formulating the answer required close partnerships between the library, the Office of Information Technology, and faculty from across the campus. As early as 1999, UT librarians and technologists began collaborating on pilot projects to evaluate both the feasibility and suitability of delivering multimedia content in the form of course reserves over the Internet. As with all large research universities, the ability to scale efforts to high-enrollment classes was essential. Fortunately several realities were in place to ensure progress: A track record existed among technologists, librarians, and faculty in digitizing print and audio in partnership.

Skills. Not by Library School Alone , an article in the October 15, 1999 Library Journal , addresses the question of how a librarian attains practical skills. Because library school teaches only theory, on-the-jobs skills may go undeveloped. With the introduction of computers into libraries, job descriptions have begun to reflect the importance of these necessary skills. The descriptions I found contain terms such as HTML, JAVA, UNIX, Internet searching, SuperCat, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, OCLC, SIRSI, INNOPAC, Innovative Interfaces, database management and GALILEO. These are just some of the new skills employers are now seeking. Non-library jobs and positions in special libraries increasingly require such technical skills. excellent oral, written communication and interpersonal relation skills
