JACKSON Board Will Review Center Proposals etnHv nf oresent facilities in Douglas County, along with what they determined future needs to be. they also worked closelv with several school teachers and administrators Ruark said a great deal of the groundwork had been done by a committee of county edu cators. He also said tins in dicated the desire of these edu cators to establish such a fa cility in Douglas County. The report recommends that after miking a basic decision to move ahead with an IMC plan, the county board should appoint an advisory committee representative of the school boards within the county. The function of the committee, for which the group says Barne burg should be chairman, would be to aid and advise the super intendent and the 1ED board in the formation of policies for establishment and operation of the center and for the selection of a director. Function Explained The primary function of the center should be to establish a centralized pool of instructional materials, beginning with a bas ic educational film library of between 800 and 1,000 prints,1 and moving into additional and specialized types and kinds of materials and services as needs develop. The advisory group said the administrators, and advisory board should establish a policy calling for the continuous eval uation of the functions of the IMC and constant movement to ward complete operations and an integrated and coordinated program based on the four ma jor functions of: (a) A central ized pool of variety materials: (b) planned and continuing in- service work with teachers; (c) maintenance of equipment and materials in the local districts as well as at the IED center level; (d) provision and en couragement for local produc tion of unique instructional ma terials not otherwise available.
