Certification Manual for Public Librarians Program Approval Manual for Certification Library Development Links on the ODL Website Services to Libraries Public Librarian Certification The certification program has been developed by the Oklahoma Library Association and ODL to fill a library education "gap" in the state. Professional standards are established for librarianship in larger public libraries and school library media centers, but the majority of Oklahoma's smaller public libraries have no standards established for librarian training. The limited funding of smaller libraries and the inaccessibility of library education programs to many areas of the state are the major contributors to this educational gap. It is the vision of OLA and ODL that public libraries in Oklahoma be administered and staffed by trained personnel. Continuing education is necessary to assure that librarians keep abreast of developments in the information age. This, in turn, upgrades the library profession, enriches the individual librarians and promotes quality library services.

Oklahoma Farm Bureau Policies for 2002 COURTS/PENAL SYSTEM 80 The Judiciary 80.1 Supreme Court Terms We favor limiting the terms of state Supreme Court judges to a maximum of 16 years with mandatory retirement at 75 years of age. Judicial Review We recommend that the committee currently being considered to study the reformation of our current judicial system in Oklahoma should include at least one-third lay people in addition to attorneys, judges and legislators, to get a full scope opinion of our legal system. Judges We believe District and Associate District Judges should continue to be elected. Hold-Harmless Payments The state court system shall be required to continue to fund county government for so-called hold harmless payments to compensate for loss of revenue from justice of peace courts and county courts; also portion of utility and janitorial bills for court occupied areas. Make My Day Law We desire to see the "Make My Day" law expanded to allow easier access for permits to carry weapons, also providing extended protection to the victim. We should have the right to protect our property and lives without fear of prosecution. We endorse and request the continued firm enforcement of laws and ask for the right to use force to protect our private property, including deadly force if needed. Criminal Litigation We recommend setting limits on the rights of criminals presently incarcerated to litigate against the prison system.

BOARD OF ED. OF OKLAHOMA CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS v. DOWELL 111 S.Ct. 630 January 15, 1991 On writ of certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit Chief Justice Rehnquist delivered the opinion of the Court. From the very first, federal supervision of local school systems was intended as a temporary measure to remedy past discrimination. Brown considered the "complexities arising from the transition to a system of public education freed of racial discrimination" in holding that the implementation of desegregation was to proceed "with all deliberate speed." 349 U. S., at 299-301 (emphasis added). Green also spoke of the "transition to a unitary, nonracial system of public education." 391 U.S., at 436 (emphasis added). It is so ordered.

EagleForum.org updates More info about Visit our STW page Back to Jan. Ed Reporter NUMBER 180 THE NEWSPAPER OF EDUCATION RIGHTS JANUARY 2001 STW - Sweeping Down the Plain in Oklahoma Linda Murphy By Linda Murphy When Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating vetoed the state mandate for School-to-Work (STW) in May 1995, supporters of traditional education considered it a victory. However, he later approved a state STW plan and appointed a STW Council by executive order in an attempt to oversee and alter the plan according to the Council's direction. I served on the STW Council in 1996 while also serving as Deputy Commissioner of Labor. Previously, I served as the Governor's education advisor from January through December 1995. In 1994, I ran as the Republican candidate for State Superintendent of Public Instruction on a platform that focused on academics and rejected OBE. I received 49.5% of the vote. After the election, Governor Keating appointed me to his Cabinet as Secretary of Education. This infuriated the Democrat leadership, who perceived that their tight control over the education establishment and its allies was threatened. They refused to confirm my cabinet appointment, and waged a battle in the media against the STW Councilmembers who were advocating change. They appealed to the Democrat Attorney General, who stopped the Council and declared that the Governor's executive order was an unauthorized use of power. The end result is that Oklahoma's STW plan remains in place and is moving forward.

Dear Black Excel Student and Parent Supporters This is a quick gateway (below) that you should consider immediately to resource help. Each state has aid sources you should inquire about. No question about that! These aid sources cover a wide range of programs, sometimes including resident and fee reductions, "incentive awards," grants, scholarships, loans and more. High school guidance counselors should be keeping you abreast in regard to what's available. Often, however, this has not been the case. This is a BLACK EXCEL tip. Call or write the appropriate state agencies for information packages and assistance. Getting your state "info and financial aid" packages could mean savings to you and your child/students. -Isaac Black, Black Excel S T A T E A I D S O U R C E S ALABAMA Alabama Commission on Higher Education Suite 205 3465 Norman Bridge Road Montgomery, Alabama 36105-2310 State Department of Education Gordon Persons Office Building 50 North Ripley Street Montgomery, Alabama 36130-3901
