Course Questions On p. 4 of HTT, it says that the 1960 Standards for School Media Programs "stopped short of recommending that the roles of the educational media specialist and librarian be combined." Don't understand the significance, in part b/c I am not familiar with the term "educational media specialist." Do you want us to respond to peers' thought provoker questions?
