Abstract

This paper presents a study of the present use of auxiliary personnel in media centers in Washington State public schools. These findings along with documents received from school districts, the review of literature, and related knowledge of the field were used as a basis for the development of guidelines relating to selecting, employing, assigning, training, and evaluating of media aides.

The proposed guidelines are presented to aid school district administrators in developing their own policies and procedures relating to media auxiliary personnel.

Recommendations included a more extensive study incorporating a total population study, a study of existing training programs available for aides at higher educational institutions, and the development of guidelines for policies related to all auxiliary personnel that function in the role of instructional and/or clerical aides under the direct supervision of certificated teachers.
