Abstract

The State of Iowa, through a bill reorganizing the intermediate county education systems into fifteen intermediate area education agencies providing special education, media, and auxiliary services, has mandated that the media division shall provide a professional library and curriculum laboratory for the area that it serves.

The area media center is not a new concept in Iowa as there are presently sixteen such centers in the state

that provide a variety of services to the schools in their area with a few centers providing curriculum laboratories for the teachers in their area. These sixteen centers 4 became a part of the area education agencies on July 1, 1975, and will provide the basic services mandated by law.

The Area 15 Education Agency Media Center, Ottumwa, Iowa, has had a limited professional library but has not had a curriculum laboratory. The intent of this study is to provide the media center staff with information and ideas concerning a variety of classification systems in order that they may implement a system that will be easily maintained by the staff and, more importantly, easily used by those they serve.
