Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Standard Library Organization Suggested for Missouri High Schools
The standard library organization varies with the size of the school. The larger the enrollment, the greater should be the library facilities. A school enrolling 500 pupils should, for instance, have more books in the library than a school enrolling 50 pupils. The library of a high school which enrolls 300 pupils should have a full-time professionally trained librarian, whereas the library of a high school which enrolls only 100 pupils can be well cared for by a teacher-librarian who has pursued a short course in library methods. A separate room is practically necessary to accommodate the library in a high school of 500 pupils, but a classroom or a section of the study hall may answer this purpose in a high school of only 50 pupils.
