| Abstract: | The purpose of this manual is to orient new system staff and advisory council members of the library systems in Texas to their roles and responsibilities. It contains information on the history, governance, funding, services, and administration of the systems. Chapter one, "The Role of Systems in Public Library Development in Texas," includes a chronology of library systems in Texas since 1962. "The Governance of Systems," chapter two, examines governance at the regional and state levels. Chapter three, "System Funding and System Services," discusses distribution of funding, systems performance measures, and direct and indirect costs of 1996 system operation grants. Financial and performance management, planning for system services, other operational areas, and contract and reporting dates calendars are the topics of Chapter four, "The Administration of Systems." Chapter five, "Essential Documents for System Management," examines state documents and system working documents. An appendix outlines roles and responsibilities of advisory council members. (MAS) |
