[tasla] FW: help! - from Cindy Buchanan









Dear TASLA members: 

I was recently contacted by an analyst from the Legislative Budget Board 
who is gathering information for the School Performance Review.   After 
our call, I have quite a bit of homework to gather to answer his questions 
about school libraries.   The officers of TASL and TLA staff are working 
on this as well.  This is a great opportunity to share information about 
school libraries in Texas. 

To this point, I need your help.  How do you implement the Standards and 
Guidelines in your district?  Do you have a formal evaluation of your 
school libraries using these guidelines?  If you have data you have 
collected, forms you use, etc, would you send me a copy?  Do you mind my 
sharing your information with the analyst?  He was very interested in how 
these guidelines are used by individual campuses/districts.  Of course, I 
told him we had to state-wide data because there is no means for that data 
to be collected.   

Interestingly enough, he also wants information on states who have 
mandated guidelines.   


Thanks in advance for your help, I will keep you posted. 

:)Cindy
