1 There is no federal constitutional requirement for school districts to provide school libraries; each individual state, therefore, has the discretion to pass legislation and regulations allowing school libraries to be established, operated and maintained in schools. Alabama: Funds certified school librarians in all schools. Instructional support units are calculated in the classification of principal, assistant principal, counselor, and librarian as recommended in the accreditation standards for elementary schools, middle schools, secondary schools, and unit schools of the commissions that comprise the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). Alabama Admin. Code: Alaska: Established a public school library collection development grant program with maximum grants of $3,000 per fiscal year for eligible public school libraries to expand and improve their library collections. To be eligible for the grant program, a library must be a public school library established and supported by the school district where the district contributes from its budget an amount no less than the grant award or contributes in-kind value of services. Alaska Stat. Ann (a),(b) (West 2008) Arizona: Does not require school libraries, but the governing board of a school district may establish, maintain, and report on its libraries to the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Arkansas: Requires public schools to budget and spend yearly for purchasing and maintaining library resources and include input from teachers, parents, and students in the acquisition of instructional materials. The role of the library media center shall support technology as a tool for learning. Schools with more than 300 students must employ a full-time, licensed library media specialist; schools with more than 1500 students must employ two full-time library media specialists; schools with fewer than 300 students are entitled to employ a halftime, licensed school library media specialist. The library media specialist(s) shall ensure that access to records and resource data bases shall be available to students and assist students in the development and use of research skills. Also requires a collection of at least 3,000 volumes or at least eight (8) books per student enrolled and that each media center is equipped with one computer for administrative purposes only for multimedia/networking capacity.
