Resources in Louisiana Libraries : Public, Academic, Special and in Media Centers. Report of a Survey / Sue Hefley.

The purpose of the survey was to compile a descriptive catalog detailing the strengths of Louisiana's library resources. The catalog should be a useful tool at all levels for interlibrary loan, patron referral, collection development, and for the identification of outstanding reference and bibliographical materials in academic, public, special libraries and in media centers serving schools at the administrative system level. The survey includes materials from all academic, public, special and administrative system-level media centers in Louisiana and analyzes library strengths identified by the participating libraries. The study is devoted primarily to printed materials. It does include descriptions of outstanding film and archival collections, but analyzes these materials only as far as the participating libraries have reported and described their collections. This report is a compilation of responses to the three questionnaires used in the survey. The libraries, state agencies and media centers to which survey questionnaires were sent are listed in alphabetical order. (Author/NH)
