LSTA Grants for School Library Media Centers by Jane E. Smith, Grants Coordinator, State Library Division. 801/715-6742 or jsmith@state.lib.ut.us What is LSTA? LSTA required each state to develop its own Five-Year Plan for allocating funding to libraries. A new LSTA Advisory Council worked to draft this plan, set priorities for unding statewide services to libraries and also established the guidelines, funding categories, match requirements, eligibility criteria, application process for a Competitive Grants Program. Since 1997 Congress has appropriated funding to support the LSTA programs in all states. For the past two years Utah has received approximately 1.2 million dollars annually. Half of this money is expended on statewide services to libraries (statewide planning, evaluation, continuing education and other library development activities; database licensing to support PIONEER: Utah's Online Electronic Library; resource-sharing incentive grants to fund inter-library loan transactions; and support for the Utah Regional Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped). The other $600,000 is used to fund the Competitive Grants Program. Which Libraries are Eligible?

A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Educational Programs That Work - 1995 Davis County Indian Homework Centers Program (IHC) Davis County Indian Homework Centers Program (IHC). A tutoring program to increase the achievement scores of Indian students in the Davis County (Utah) School District. Audience Indian students grades 1-12 who request or agree to be tutored. Description Evidence of Effectiveness The Stanford Achievement Tests (SAT) was the instrument used to measure student (grades 1-12) achievement gains. A pre- and post-test design was used. Supporting evidence was obtained through parent questionnaires. The treatment group sample included all of the Indian students who received at least 30 hours of tutoring over a 27 week period and who took both the pre- and post-tests. Results showed that students made significant gains in reading and mathematics. Gains were medium in magnitude at the elementary and junior high levels and large in magnitude at the high school level. The questionnaire showed that all parents had a positive attitude toward their children's involvement in the program and that they felt their children had gained in academic achievement. Requirements For 60 students: ten qualified part-time tutors and one part-time tutor supervisor trained in Native American Culture for the Tribes represented in the geographic area to be served; access to elementary and secondary school libraries or media centers; Native American Indian Culture Kits; and criterion tests.

The Improving Literacy Through School Libraries (LSL) program promotes comprehensive local strategies to improve student achievement by improving school library services and resources. The LSL program is one component of the Department's commitment to dramatically improve student achievement by focusing available resources, including those of school library media centers, to ensure that no child is left behind. School library media centers have an important role to contribute to the success of local improvement plans especially in the literacy area by increasing collaboration between instructional and school library media center staff, providing additional instructional materials and resources, and extending hours of operation during non-school hours. This program provides competitive one-year grants to districts in which 20 percent of the students are from families with incomes below the poverty line.

Some use the library. The use of computers at home and at a friend or relative's home is not significant to grade level. In other words, all students report that they frequently use computers at home or at a friend or relative's home regardless of grade level. Those who "never" use computers in the library increases with grade level (48.7% elementary; 35.9% middle school; 31.6% secondary). The use of computers in the classroom "by myself" increases with grade level. For complete frequency and mean data for each item in this section, see Appendix D. Table 36 shows the frequency of these responses for weekly and daily use of computers.
