23. Library Media Program Objectives, Librarian Responsibilities, And 1997), by Doug Johnson, District media Supervisor at Mankato Public schools in minnesota. Massachusetts Standards for school Library media centers. http://www.wlma.org/Professional/responsibilities.htm

Library Media Program Objectives : Defining the Librarian's Responsibilities and Evaluation Objectives Objectives for school library media programs adhere to the concepts found in the Information Power guidelines . Defining objectives is a function of the school library media specialist in partnership with administrators, teachers, staff, students, and parents. Objectives for the program become the school librarian's responsibility within the school and the library. The school librarian's evaluation should be based on the performance of those defined responsibilites. Here are some examples of program objectives that a school library media center might have, illustrated with sample action items (the school librarian's responsibilities). Learning and Teaching Objective: We will provide resources and activities to promote student achievement and teacher knowledge, working collaboratively to help students achieve the Washington State Essential Academic Learning Requirements and district learning requirements. (Sample action items here) Information Access and Delivery Objective We will provide access to information technologies, print resources, and systems, working collaboratively to help students and teachers achieve academic and personal success.

Arts High School Media Arts Program The Media Arts Program teaches students to use elements and tools of current and emerging technologies to create works which express feelings and ideas. Students are challenged to appreciate, analyze and create works through photography, cinema, sound, digital arts and interactive media. Students obtain four credits in four semesters of intensive sequential curriculum using the block system. The lens based curriculum covers key concepts such as sequencing, montage, sound and image relationships, and the elements of time and motion. Junior students are introduced to a variety of genres and approaches to subject matter, basic technology, and criticism in an historical and cultural context. Students develop critical and creative thinking skills by creating works that convey their own ideas. Senior students learn advanced skills and techniques, advanced history and theory, career planning and portfolio, and work on an independent senior project of their choice as they develop a personal vision. This program weaves together five focus areas in the theme based curriculum: CREATE: development of ideas, aesthetics, skills, techniques, forms, genres, exhibition
