Instruction in the Use of Books and Libraries; A Textbook for Normal Schools and Colleges - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
Preface This text-book is the outcome of an actual need in giving courses in Library Methods to teachers. There are excellent teaching outlines such as Miss Gilson s Course of Study for Normal School Pupils on the Use of a Library; Mr. Ward s The Practical Use of Books and Libraries, for high school classes; and the Course of Study for Normal School Pupils on Literature for Children, by Mrs. Harron, Miss Bacon, and Mr. Dana; but there is no one text-book to put into the hands of normal school students. It is believed that such a textbook will be a saving of time and effort for both students and instructors. The text has been planned for the use of students in normal schools and for teachers taking normal courses in summer schools. I ts purpose is first to teach such students how to use books and libraries so that they may in turn impart this information to children in the schools; second, to help them acquire that knowledge of literature for children which a teacher must have in order to encourage in children an appreciation of literature. College and normal school courses in English literature do not generally put any emphasis on books that have been written for children and hence the teacher misses the very important and practical acquaintance with childrens books that she ought to have. Part III is reserved for the purely technical subjects of classification, cataloguing, etc.
