This report summarizes studies related to school library media that have appeared in "Resources in Education" (RIE) or "Current Index to Journals in Education" (CIJE) between June 1981 and December 1985. Reports and papers on library media programs are discussed in the following three broad categories: (1) Library Media Programs (the current status of programs, the impact of media programs on learning, the role of state agencies, library skills instruction, student use of library media centers, the use of technology, and school/public library cooperation); (2) School Library Media Resources (censorship; availability of resources; resource needs, losses, and funding; technical processing; networking; and district level services); and (3) Personnel (the role of the school media specialist; competencies and certification requirements; school media staff; and district media staff). It is concluded that the role of the library media program in the educational process has emerged as a major concern in several areas, including the impact of media programs on learning, library skills instruction, student use of libraries, and use of technology. A 101-item bibliography is provided. (KM)
