Library Name Carlsbad City Library
Use this page and addtiond pages as needed to describe how your library d1 use the CLSA
matching ftnds for the California Library Literacy Services requested for Fiscal Year 1997198.
Carlsbad City Library will use 97/98 California Library Literacy Services
matching funds to upgrade and expand the instructional computer lab and for
ongoing support of tutors and learners:
Upgrade and Expand Instructional Computer Lab
(Equipment $22,500; Communications $420)
Over 90% of tutoring pairs now use the instructional computer lab as a major
component of their tutoring sessions. Technology advances, software demands,
and maintenance issues make it necessary to replace the server and the existing
hardware at the 6 stations with pentium units. A defective printer also needs to
be replaced. Additionally, instructional resources will be expanded through
Internet access to the online adult education network.
Ongoing Support " of Adult Learners and Volunteer Tutors
(Instructional Resources $2,200; Personnel $1,200; Other $2,537)
Funds will be used to purchase additional textbooks for adult learners, as well as
sets of comprehension development materials. Funds will also be used to
purchase the new version of LiteeuacyPro, the literacy program management
software, for more efficient program management. Part-time personnel hours
will be increased slightly for additional supervision of tutoring pairs and
computer use. Funds will also be used to support the annual recognition event
for learners and tutors and for support of tutor trainings.
