ABSTRACT
Each year the Federal Government prepares and releases thousands ofquality publications. These publications include a large body ofcurriculum and instructional materials to train individuals for a widerange of employment opportunities. The,.-Vocational EducationAmendments of 1968 mandate the Office of Vocational. and AdultEducation in the. Department of Education to effect broad utilizationof vocational education materials, especially those developed underpublic sponsorship. To respond to this mandate and to the currentneeds of and practices in vocational education, the Department ofEducatibn contracted with Human Resources Management, Inc. (HRM)to update a set of listings of curriculum and instructional materialsreadily available from federal organizations, except the Department ofDefense. In actuality, the current listings are a set of new listings.The new listings cover both print and nonprint material developedor revised since. 1975. The listings include materials for the seventraditional vocational program areas of agriculture and agribusinesseducation, trade and industrial education, marketing and distributiveeducation, allied health education, business aria office education,technical education and vocational home economics. education. Inaddition .to the traditional vocational education program areas, effortswere made to locate and annotate materials for use with the handicapped,disadvantaged, older Americans, ,displaced homemakers; youth andclientele of BETA programs. Also, general refeiences for vocationaland career education are included in each of the listings. Thesematerials are cited' in eight volumes which are organized around theseven vocational education program areas and around an eighth bookfor special ,needs groups. While these listings are by no meansexhaustive, they are representative of materials wgich can be obtainedfree or for a nominal charge from over ninetytwo federal organizationssurveyed;
A national Advisory Group of vocational educatort representingall regions of the United States; all vocational education program areas,'levels and types of organizational settings; and the special needs groupswas formulated to provide guidance on the project Informational andpromotional leaflets describing the listings were distributed tovocational educators across. the country. The Government PrintingOffice printed the listings and has them available for sale. Thisreport describes the activities of the project and provides insights andrecommendations. The overriding conclusion is that the FederalGOvernment produces a wealth of material which vocational educators .
would find helpful. However, additional means for informing vocationaleducators about these resources is needed.

Chapter One:EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
4
The Federal Government prepares andreleases 'thousands of duality curriculum andinstructional matecials which could be utilizedby vocational educators. The VocationalEducation Amendments of 19F8 mandate theAssistant Secretty of the Office of Vocationaland Adult Education of the Department ofEducation to fund'activities which facilitate thedissemination of information about these materialsand resources to potential users.
As part of the effort to fulfill that mandate,the Department of Education contracted withHuman Resources Management, Inc. (HRM), ofWashington, D.C. (under contract ,No. -300-790420), to conduct a survey of curriculum andinstructional materials readily available fromfederal organizations except thi Department ofDefhse. HRM 'performed this contract fromAugbst 1, 1979 to August 15, 1980. More thanninetytwo federal organizations were surveyedand contacted and over 5,000 items wereidentified and selected as relevant to the concernsof vocational edUcators. The final result of thiseffort is a set of eigh't separate volumes of
. annotated citations. The selected materials coverthe vocational fields of agricUlture andagribusiness, home -economics, allied healtheducation, technical education, marketing anddistributive education, and office education. Inaddition, efforts were made to locate and annotatematerials for use with the handicapped,
-disadvantaged, older Americans, displacedhomomakers, youth and clientele of ,CETAprograms. A separate booklet contains citationsfor these special groups.
In 1971, a similar survey was conductedand seven listings of materials were prepared atthat time. These Listings are now obsolete andneeded to be revised and updated to be responsiveto current needs and practices in vocationaleducation.
Thus, the current project has served toupdate the'1971 Listings. The current Listingsare, in fact, new since 1975. While these Listings
-are not exhaustive, they are representative of
the many different types of.. materials andresources available and do provide the potentialusers access to the sources of the items.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LISTING PLANentailed laying the foundation for projectimplementation, the formation and use of anadvisory panel and specific details of a work planwhich was developed as a guide for projectactivities. The Plan described be overall courseof action to be taken to ensure that the goalsof the project would be met. Specifically, thefollowing three major endeavors occurred:
o Review of background materials. Sincethis project was' originally conceivedto be a revision of the 1971 Listings,vre reviewed them and the final projectreport, and held discussions with thedirector of that project. This servedas a basis for identifying the guidelinesand procedures which had been usedpreviously for material identification,selection, and acouisition. Otherrelevant materials which were reviewedincluded: bibliographies, guides andCongressional reports.
o Establishment and use of a nationaladvisory panel of vocational educators.A panel was formulated on a nationallevel and coordlnated to review andadvise on the project. Designated asthe Advisory Group, this panelrepresented vocational program areas,the eight special program groups,secondary, postsecondary, and adultlevels of vocational educationalprograms, varied ethnic backgrounds,both sexes among Others. Eventually,fifteen Advisory Group members wereselected from a list of 33 potentialpanel members.
Components of the Listing Plan. Thefollowing elements were addressed anddetermined ,in detail:
Information Sought
Criteria for Selection of Materials
Classification andSystems
Sources of Materials
Coding
Materials Receipt and Annotation
Organization Plan for theListings
Printing and Distribution
Sources- andCollection of--Material-s. HRMhad to select those agencies which had theappropriate materials for the project. The typesof sources to be used, how those sources were tobe selected, the means for contacting thosesources and recording the information gathered,and the transport of the materials were carefullyconsidered.
The criteria for the selection of the sourcesclosely paralleled those suggested for use in theselection of materials. Agencies whose majorprogrammatic thrust was directly related to anyof the seven subject areas and/or the specialneeds groups were immediately identified.-Sources which had readily available materialsproduced or revised since 1975 at a resonablecost to the consumer were also Selected. grnongthe other key factors which were considered Wereproximity of the sources to Washington, D.C.,and the cost to HkM of accessing the materials.
The HWY, Project Director made initialcontact with the highest person in command withinthe particular level and area within the agencyfrom which information was desirLd. Starting at
.the top of the organization proved to be mostuseful in obtaining the authority and cooperationneeded to contact the varied personnel throughouta given department", agency, or clearinghouse. Ingeneral, federal personnel provided excellent andgenerous cooperation.
HRM staff members were given orientationand training sessions, , and were proviga withsample kits of materials. Over a three monthperidd-, these staff members interviewed persennel
1.2
in as many agencies as possible and collectedmateriali from them. The following provide anexample of some of the noteworthy facts whichemerged:
o Over 120 federal organizations werecontacted and deemed to be realsources of materials.
Several hundred personnel inapproximately 92 different federalorganizations were interviewed andprovided materials.
Of all the federal organizations usedas sources of materials, 17 hadmaterials which cut across most of thevocational program areas and specialneeds groups.
o 19 federal organizations are responsiblefor the development, collection ordistribution of materials covering alarge range of subject matter withina given department.
o 56 agencies with specific programmaticfocus were contacted for materials.
PROCESSING OF MATERIALS. BAs a resultof the selection and collection of materials, HRMstaff members:
o Identified eve" 5,000 curriculum andinformation materials from federalagencies.
Reviewed, annotated, keyed into theword processor and corrected 1,146items.
Included approximately 1,0P5individual citations in the booklets.
Specifically, the following were included inthe processing of materials:
Development of a System for Processing Materials.A classification schema for organizing materialsand one hundred forty-three subject areas wasdeveloped. In addition, various.file systems suchas a title card file, source card file and a
pub lisher card file were developed to facilitate
the processing of materials. An automaticretrieval system was very' important to theefficient grouping Of citations into subject areasand a tape code system for GPO (GovernmentPrinting Office) printing, developed by GPO, wasalso essential.
Steps in the Processing of Materials. Essentially,materials were processed from initial receipt,screened for suitability, and given an accessionnumber. Then they were reviewed, -classifiedinto the appropriate area(s),- annotated, andprepared for- inriut into the automatic retrievalsystem.. Various printot4ts were proofed foraccuracy and a computer tape was submitted toGPO which 'produce cameraready copies.
Develtl tp_atrit and Format of etta_tions. Indeveloping a citation format, various styles wereconsidered and eventually, HRM staff and theAdvisory Group selected one which is clear andreadable. Thorough bibliographical and sourceinformation were combined with the annotationsto provide concise entries.
ORGAN IZAT ION_AND_COWILATIONOFTHE LISTINGS. Numerous organizational optionswere proposed and considered, and the followingfour categories of Information were organized:
0

o Information on how to use the listings.
Citations for the seven vocationalprogram areas,
Citations for the special needs groups,
Information on sources, and
After. the collection and annotation of materials,the decision was made to develop eight booklets.The seven .vocational_ areas each constitute _abooklet and the special_ needs_ groups materialtconstitute an eighth booklet. The exact title ofthe booklets are at,follows:

An important objective of thisproject was to create an awareness that thelistings would be useful to vocational educationteachers in their search for relevant curriculumand instructional materials. To create such anawareness informational and promotionalbrochures were distributed effectively to acaptive audience. The response was excellentand requests for -further information about theproject were received from many individuals,mostly vocational educators.
The eight booklets were printed by theGOVerriment Printing Office. Ten thousand copiesof each booklet were printed and a GPO rldr'rorder of two thousand was requested for eachbooklet. Thet&booklets are available for purchasethrotigh GPO...1 However, free copies, of thebooklets wer distributed to those individualswho request' d them by returning the detachableportion of the information brochures.

REVIEW OF BACKGROUND MATERIALS
Since this 'project was original' -.1 conceivedto be a revision and updating of seven listingsprepared by the Northwest Regional EducationalLaboratory in 1970-71, we reviewed the sevenbooklets and the final project report and helddiscussions with the director of that project whib
also served on our Advisory Group of VocationalEducators, After a study of the overall'orginization arid content of the listings and thefinal project re'port; we were able to identify theguidelines and procedures which had been used
.for material Identification, selection andacquisition. We also gained valuable informationon working with the federal agencies Whitt' Weresurveyed. We were then able to draw _up a liStcomparing and contrasting the scopes of,work ofthe 1971 and the current protects and identifythose components and procedgres which might bemaintained for this project ankithose Whitt' wouldneed to be modified. Some of the key differencesin the current project were at follows.:
The inclusion of no-op-rirr-t. as Well, asprint material \
o A search for material to be used byvocational educators in Working; withspecial populations inck,didg thedisadvantaged, ,handicapped, displacedhomemakers, unemployed youth, urbanand rural youth, older Americans, andclientele of CETA Programs. Thiscreated an additional:eighth volume oflistings .-
"-*o The identification and placement in
the listidgs of spetial materials forGuidance' and dountelIng CareerEducation, and Consumer Education-only if they %vete specific to vocationaloccupations and could be categorizedwithin thoseareas in the appropriate
, booklet
o Use of a different' format for theannotations
A new organization plan for thebooklets' which includes WireinforMation on the sources from whichmaterials can be ordered
o Revrsion of the names of the bookletsand the program areas for which
Cab

,
materials are cited to correspond toprogrammatic shifts and terminologychanges which have taken place overthe past ten years
Inclusion of material 'developed orrevised- only. since 1975; and
o Ad- ditional promotional anddillemination activities.

A number-of other materials were reviewedfor various purposes. Other bibliographies suchas The Center for Vocational Educitiehis METRICEDUCATION: AnAn netated Bibliography for'V o-cat t Education we reexamined for ideas on organization of the listingsas well as annotation formats. The 1972
ecatietial=itistructiOnal Materials for Studentsetith--SpetlalNeedi was scrutinized for helpfulhints to seeking materials for the handicappedsection of. the Special Needs Groups, our volumeeight. t!
The 1976 Identifying and Planning for Newand Emerging Occupations: A Suggested Guidewas read since we were to, include materials fornew and emerging occupations As they wereavailable. Many taxonories of instructionalprograms, classifications of educational subjectmatter and standard references of ,terminologyfor curriculum and instructional programi werealso reviewed.. A more thorough discussion of'these latter references can be found in the sectionpn Classificaticn in'this chapter. -
Staff members of the Committee on.Governmental Affairs of the U. S. Senate andtheir report of May 1979, Lack of Accountabilityin Government Public Information and PublishingPrograms provided insight into some of theproblems in' accessing the thoosands ofpublications printed by the government. ANational Advlsoriv_Grouji of Vocational Educatorswas formulated and coordinated to review andadvise on 'the project. The group as a whole wasto represent the following:
/The seven vocational program areas oftrad,e and indusiry;
'agriculture /agribusiness, marketingand distributive education-, businessand office education, allied health

education, vocational home, economicsand technical education
Eight special program areas or groups-including youth (rural, innercity andunemployed), older Americans,displaced hOmemakers, new andemerging occupations, disadvantaged,manpower programs, CETA programs,and_bilingual vocational education
Secondary, postsecondary, and adultlevels of vocational education programs
Varied positions_ including teachers,teacher_ educators,' state ;departmentsof Vocational education, statesuperiisors,- Regional CurriculumCoordinator Centers
o Varied ethnic backgrounds
o Both sexes
o Different organizational settings and
o As4nany. U.S. Department of Educationgeographic regions as possible.
HRM obtained a lengthy list ofrecommendations for Advisory Group membersfrom HRM staff, HRM vocational educatorcontacts throughout the U.S. and Office ofVocationa! and. Adult Education vocational'education area specialists. Office of Vocational.and Adult Education professionals who were mosthelpful included these individuals: Jim wykie,Pill Dennis, Ed Nelson, Bryon Rawls, Lorettagrown, Harriett McDerus, Doris Gunderson, JackWilson; Barbara Kemp, and Ann Donnovan.Department 'of Education (ED)'. professionals GillChevaz and Dorothy Shuelier assisted in locatinga- Advisory Group member representing CETA,manpower, and bilingual vocational education.
FIRM presented ED with a list of 33 potential.Advisory Group members w'th seven listed assuggested members and the remaining twentysixas alternates. After receiving approval from.ED,HRM staff contacted potential .Adv.Isory Groupmembers to inform them about the project andassess their interest in and availability to serveon the Advisory Group. A final list of AdvisoryGroup members was submitted to ED..
4 '35,
A checklist of seventy _activities- forsuccessful completion for Advisory Groupmeetings was drawn up and implemented. LettersOf invitation to serve on the Advisory Groupwere mailed to each individual consenting to servealong with eight different attachments which weredeemed helpful as background information inplanning for the first meeting; These inclu4edthe following: (1) HRM corporate description;(21 a project summary, (3) excerpts from theHRM peoposal for the project, (4) a list ofesuestions, i.e., issues for Advisory Group input,(5) _a list of references which had been used indrafting issues for Advisory Group discussions,(0) logistics sheet including directions for.and tothe meeting, (7) a copy of the 1971 listing mostclosely related to the Advisory Group members'specialty area,_ and (8) an information form onthe Advisory Group member.
HRM =was quite pleased that the fifteenAdvisory Group members selected representedsuch a rich blend of vocational educators inspecialty areas, types of positions held, typesand levels of organizations where employedvethnicbackgrounds, sex and geographic regions. Exhibit3.1 demonstrates the extent to which thesevocational educational program variables were 'sothoroughly represented. Exhibit 3.2 shows theAdvisory Group members and their affiliationsand addresses.
The first meeting of this group was heldon October 23, 1979, at the Ramada Inn inRosslyn, Virginia. This meeting was structuredaround these three quWions-: (1) What are the-informaticin needs of vocational educators forinstructional. materials?, (2) What criteria shouldbe used in selecting and evaluating materials?,and 13) What format and paCkaging of the listingswould be most useful and appealing?
To facilitate more productive discussion,Advisory Group members were divided into threegroups of five members, each with an HRMdiscussion leader. Advisory Group members weremost enthusiastic and helpful in theirsuggestions. The substance of theirrecommendations can be found in the Listing
Exhibit 3.3 contains those materials used.thi4dvisory Group meeting.

Following the Advisory Group meetings, Dr.Doug Towne, former director of the precedingproject (1971 Listing) and an Advisory Groupmember, provided HRM with consultation; Wewere fortunate to have his continuing input whichallowed us to build upon what was learned andp oduced previously.
During this second quarter, the DraftListing Plan was mailed to the members for theirreviews and comments. The responses receivedStated that the Advisory Group's suggestions werewell incorporateel\)nto the Plan and the memkerswere in agreement\with the Plan.
One Advisory Group member did expressconcern that the need to keep the project tomanageable proportions night dilute the qualityand scope of the' final, product. Anotherquestioned why Career Education and Guidanceand Counseling were given lower priority. Thesame member also wondered how materials wouldbe scrutinized for meeting sex equity criteria.These concerns were discussed at the AdvisoryGroup meeting and are addressed as much aspossible in the next section on the Listing Plan.
COWONENTS OF THE LISTING PLAN
As stated previously, the Listing-Plan laythe framework for carrying out project activities.We will now discuss some of these componentsin more detail.
INFORMATIONN-EEDS. The first questionaddressed by HRM staff with input from theAdqisory Group was "What are the informationneeds of vocational 'educators?" More specificquestions raised. regarding information-needs werethese: .
(1) What are the information needs forinstructional materials specific to thefollowing vocational areas?

- The Advisory Group_ members were evenlysplit into three groups regarding where the focusof the materials collected should be: (1) theseven 'traditional vocational program areas 'listedin the lePP.,, (2) the special interest groups, and(3) informail al materials_ and how to obtainthem. The_ L ing Plan suggested that HRMsurvey federal agen es to obtain materials whichaddiessed all three nformation needs, thuseffecting broad coverage of instructionalprograms and subject matterThis coverage wasresponsive _to both the Bureauts (Office ofVocational and Adult Education) hundate underPiL." 40-576 and to Office of VoCatmal andAdult Education1s priorities for vo tional
,education (see June 6, 1979 Priorities forVocational Education). Exhibit 3.4 presents
general listing of the categories for whichmaterials were sought. A more exact and.specificbreakdown of these general categories can be seenin Exhibit 3.6 under, the discussion ofclassification of materials. Even the breakdownin this Exhibit was not always specific enoughto access the materials sought. In addition, thesystems by which each agency had its materialsclassified varied. Therefore a specific list ofkey ,words used to identify materials. wasdeveloped In conjunction with knowledgeablepersonnel at each source. Thus, the lists werealways viewed as tentative and were adapted totap the information or classification systems asthey existed at the sources.
The Advisory Group' -members and otherindividuals queried thought that materials fornew and emerging occupations could be obtainedwith the keyovords used in Exhibit 3.4.. Theyfelt that materials for these occupations couldbe placed within traditional vocational educationprogram/occupational areas.
While Career Education and Guidance andCounseling were included in the suggested list ofmaterials sdught, HRM recommended that higherpriority be given to the seven vocational programareas and the special groups.
CRITERIA FOR SELECTION OFMATERIALS. There are a number of factorswhich were used to determine what materialswould be selected for inclusion in the listing.The following list provides some of the questionswhich were answered in the Listing Plan andprovided guidelines for materials selection:
USERS. HRM and the Advisory Grouprecommended that the materials sought beprimarily for teachers and students. Much ofthis material can probably be used by teachereducators and state level personnel also
TYPES OF _M_A2TE_RIALS. It wasrecommended that a wiiie variety of print andnonprint material be sought. However, the typesobtained were dependent on the sources used andwhat was readily available at the sources. MostAdvisory Group members suggested that we keeptypes of materials limited to several categoriesin both print and nonprint categories. The firsttwo types under both categories on Exhibit 3.5

are those given highest ratings by the AdvisoryGroup as most desired by teachers. Other typeswere not recommended. Our identification ofmaterials was to be first by those titles whichseem appropriate as instructional materials for
,vocational education. We, recommendedconcentrating on locating useful and availablematerials regardless of type. Some types ofmaterials would be more important to certain usergroups. For example, cassettes, records and audiotapes would be especially helpful for the visuallyimpaired. We would be sensitive to the needsof special user groups and types of materialswhen we selected sources and when we disCussedour needs with agency personnel.
The Advisory Group felt that while therewould belraterials specificto special groups such,-as ,older Americans, the vocational instructionalmaterials would not vary so much by special usergroup as b,y _vocational program content beingstudied. Therefore, much of the material to be
used_with_the special groups was to be sought Inconjunction with 4 vocational program area andhopefully listed under that program area. Thatwould help limit the scope of the material to be,sought, especially under a topic as broad. as"Youth.".
\ LEVEL OF MATERIALS. Handbook XI AClassification of Educational Subject Matterst ;0.s that the "categorization of educationallevel\with respect to age and competency appearsto be' ecreasing-significantly. Many of the 'ritesof pass el from one educational level to anotherhave be eliminated to accommodate studentenrollment at multiple' levels or to allow forcompeten based education programs."Secondary schools are increasingly offeringsubject matter that has traditionally been theprovince of postsecondary education. To a lesserextent, the revers is also true. Postsecondaryinstitutions offer curses at the secondary levelas elements of adult asic or remedial programs.Much of the instruc Tonal material used invocational education pr. rams Is not earmarkedfor a given level. For thesereasons, the AdvisoryGroup recommended that HAM not spend timetrying to identify the levels of materials. If, thelevels are to be given in the, sources used byHRM, they would be indicated iri\the annotations.If not, no Advisory Group member felt this wouldbe an important omission. Exceptions most likely
3.14
would exist in the handicapped area wheredifferent levels are Often indicated and are morenecessary in teacher selection of materials:
-INFORMATION ABOUT SOURCES. ManyAdvisory Group members strongly recommendedthat the listing(s) include .a more detailed sectionon sources of vocational curriculum andinstructional materials. This section could containbrief summaries of the sources used by thisproject and other sources net used but which arepotential sources of information and materials forvocational educators. Information given for eachsource could include a short paragraph on theagency's general mission (especially as relates tovocational education and materials); names andtelephone numbers of contact persons;instructions and addresses for ordering materialsand placement of name on mailing lists, if theyexist; and ether information pertinent to a
.particular agency. The sources could be presentedeither in, alphabetical order or grouped bylibraries, clearinghouses, or agencies.
MATCH WITH PRIORITY AREAS. One ofthe first criteria to be applied will be the extentto which the materials fit the priority areasincluding the seven vocational areas, the'specialgroups,- the intended 'users, and the types ofmaterials sought.
AVAILAPILITY. Only those materialswhich were readily available were to be includedIn the listings. This means (1) that the agencymust have the copies in stock, (2) the agency,must have a mechanism in place for respondingto requests, and (3) the material listed could beordered directly from the source.- Whether ornot these criteria would be met in a givensituation would be determined by collaborationbetween HRM staff and the agency contactperson(s) in charge of the materials. Whether ornot a "sufficient" number of copies *availablemight depend on (1) what minrmum number ofcopies in stock the agency feels it must havebefore agreeing to respond to requests, (2) thespecific tiPpe of material and a "guesstimate" asto whether; it would be a "low demand" or "highdemand" item, and (3) the amount of difficultyin producing more copies, depending upon thenumber of pages' or bulk of the item and the formor packaging of the item.
DATE OF P_LIB_L !CAT ION. Only' notematerials which have been developed or revisedsince 1975 would be selected for Inclusion in thelistings.
COST; The. amount of money vocationaleducation programs have to spend on materialsvaries greitly .(from $200 $6000 per year).The Advisory Group recommended that material-ranging in price from free to several hundreddollars per item be dontidered reasonable. Thiswould not eliminate the more expensive itemswhich some programs might desire and be. ableto afford.
VAMDATION. Validation of the listingswould eventually occur throtigh general use ofthem, the development of further documents andperiodic revision 'of the listing.
CLASSIFICATION AND CODING SYSTEM.A single) coherent system for classifying .theMaterials was needed, regardless of the levels ofinstruction, intended users, sources from which'Obtained or types of material. HRM suggested aSystem after a careful: review of ,severalof.thecurrent and most 'widely used classifications of;SUbjett matter and related instructional programs.
Since 1971, the StandarderCurriculum and Instruction in Local and State_School Systems (Handbook VI of the StateEducational Records and Report Series) has beenwidely used by local, state and federal agenciesand 'institutions. The National Center.°forEducation Statistics (NCES) is currentlypreparing an instructional program classificationof subject matter which will replace bothHanbdbook VI and the HEWS Taxonomy (ATaxonomy of I nstr uctionar krograms_ InHigherEducation). After a review of these. twoclassification systems, HRM discussed with NCESstaff the new system currently being developedfor the Vocational Education Data System (VEDS).A copy of the preliminary draft was obtainedand reviewed. The exact categories and theirprecise order for the new classification wouldnot be available until the project end date. HRMdeveloped a suggested classification system' basedon the preliminary draft from NCES but alsoincorporating categories from the latest HandbookA Classification System if they were omitted orvire clearer by the older system (See Exhibit3.15)
As seen in Exhibit 3.6, there are seven first,order and one hundred fortythree second orderareas in the Classification. The coding structurewould be characterized by the use of two digitsfor each order in the Classification. The firstorder, representing the subject matter area, wasindicated by the first two digits. Eachsubsequent two digits represent anotherdescending order of the subject matter.Schematically, this may be represented as. ollows:
Agriculture
01.01 Agricultural Production
.01.0101 Animal Science
"f01:0102 Plant Science
01.01-03 Farm BusinessManagement
The Advisory Group recommended that HRMnot ilassify citations by more than four digits.For example, all' entries for animal science, plantscience and farm management science would becited under 01. Agriculture 01:01 AgriculturalProduction rather than under each separatecategory (01.0101 Animal Science, 01.01Q2 PlantScience, and 01:0103 Farm BusinessManagement). Group members stated that thenumber of entries under any one fourdigitcategory would not be large enough to prohibitteachers prom reading through the entirecategory. The use of four digits would alsoprevent having some categories in the listings forwhich there might be only one entry.
If a citation 'consists of a combination oftwo or more subject=matter elements, and if thesubjecto=matter elementi are subeiements, of asingle and more aggregate entry, the ayaregateentry would be used for coding. The aggregateentry may be at the first order, second order,or third order. The title of the article and the -definition of the subject- matter element fronithe NCES Preliminary Draft and old' HandbookVI would assist ih identifying the subject mattercategories and entry levels for existing citations.
If a citation consists of two or more distinctsubject matter elements which are Loynd inseparate subject matter classificatioar listedunder each separate classification- category:

Additional subject matter materials notIncluded in the suggested classification schemecould emerge as materials are collected andreviewed. An "Other" category for such materialswould be used under the first order category.If the citations under "Other" varied considerablyin title and content, then the word "Other" wouldbe retained in the printing of the listings. Whenpossible, however, a more specific classificationtitle representing the materials listed would bechosen and used in place of "Other."

Chapter Four:SOURCES AND COLLECTION OF
Each year the _.departments; offices andagencies of the Federal _Government prepare andrelease tens of thousands. of publications andmaterials. These. publications and materials rangefrom small pamphlets, _multi-volume reports, andabstracts to curriculum materials and includeboth print and .non-print items on thousands ofdifferent subjects. Some are available free andsome are: fist sale;
HRM had to select those agencies which hadthe appropriate materials for the project. Thischapter discusses the types of sources used, hewthose sources were selected, the means fbecontacting those sources and recording tileinformation gathered, and the transport Of thematerials;
CR I T ER I A -FO-R-S-E-LEC-T-1-014-0-F-S-0-U RCES.The_ criteria for the selection of the sourcesclosely paralleled those suggested for use in theselection-of materials; First, those agencies whosemajor programmatic_ thrust is directly related toone of the areas listed in Exhibit 3;6 Wereidentified and matched with the VetatiOnalEducation or Special Group to. which it.correspondedw- When there was more than onesource-,_ the sources were lifted In priority or Inkeeping with all of the herein Stated criteria.Sources which had readily -available- Material (seeSection on Criteria for SeleCtlen Of Materials)produced or revised since 1975_ at a_ reasonablecost to the consumer were selected. It wasexpected that the sources could be grouped intoat least three types: 11) those which' containlistings or actual_ items *tint many Sources; thesewould include librarlei, ,clearinghouses, and theGoyernment Printing- Office and its depositories;(2) Offices Of Publications, Informationand/or Communications of the major Departments;and (3) the specific agencies which produce thedesired_ occupational and curriculum materials.Ptexi-Mity of _the sources to Washington, INC. andthe nest to HRM of accessing the materials werealso key fietOrt.

STAFF TRAINING FOR :INTERVIEWING.Project staff were given an orientation sessionand _training before their assignments to visitagencies. A' sample "kit" of materials wasdeveloped for their reference. This kit includedthe following: an example of a potentialconversational narrative. for their initial visitswith agency personnel;: an explanation of thecriteria for materials sought, -the list of sourcesfor them to follow up and contact; the form whichthey were to fill out when interviewing agencypersonnel; the form which would be used byannotators once materials were received; andexamples of potential annotations for citations tohelp them concretely describe the eventual resultsof the project to individuals interviewed. Exhibit4.2 is a sample of the form used to recordinformation when interviewing agency personnel.
P ROCEDU R E-S- F-GR CO NT ACT T H _THESOURCES; The HRM Project Director madoinitial contact with the highest person in commandwithin the particular level and area within' theagency from which cooperation was desired.Starting at the top of -the particular:organizationproved to be most useful in gaining the authorityand cooperation needed to contact the manyindividuals throughout a given department,office, agency, or clearinghouse. During thisinitial telephone conversation, the purpose of, theproject and its intended products were explained.A follow-up visit to the same individual wasthen made to more clearly lay out the materialssought and to identify those particular individualsat the source who could be helpful to HRM inaccessing the materials.
At the initial interview with the: ndividualidesignated as key_ contacts, HRM explained theproject 'and provided examples of materials fromthe _1971 L isting' and _a starter list of key :wordsto be used in . the current" search. -As manyfollow-up .visits as necessary to obtain and/orreview the materials were made to the agencies.
TIMERECitt I RFD FOR CO Lt ECT FON- OFMATERIAL-S. The time required ,.tocontact thevarious agencies and organizations was consistentwith that projected. This was expected to bequite extensive and to depend on how broad acoverage of materials was sought as well as howmany federal organizations per subject'or programarea would be contacted; Preliminary informationon sources was gathered. from the onset' of theprojeqt.. Thus, many contacts were made to thosehigh in-- command of organizations : while theAdvisory Group. was _being formed and the DraftListing Plan developed. By the time the ListingPlan was approved, all the initial contacts, withpotential sources had been made, permissionreceived to progress, and the actual staff personsto be worked with were.now identified in manyagencies. This phase of the process coveredapproximately four calendar months.- Of course,much was also learned during this time about thekinds of materials that might be available in someof the sources as well as what the logical strengthsand constraints might be.
18
An intensive effort was made over a three-month period by HRM stiff members to interviewpersonnel in as many agencies as possible andcollect the materials. , Since the organizationsselected were those with readily availablematerials, the time to actually have the materialsin hand was vey short. In many cases, staffmembers were able to leave the interviews withboxes of materials. In other. situations, thematerials were packaged and-mailed to HRM withinseveral weeks of the interviews.
__CO_OPERATlON OF FEDERALPERSONNEL.. ._Based on HRM staffs previousexperiences with _federal personnel. as well_ asinput from the' director of the 1971 Listings..project, we expected excellent cooperation from.the individuals to be contacted:at various federalorganizations. This prOved. to be correct._ Notonly were_ federal personnel generous in _giving ustime for interviews to obtain inform.ation about

NUMBER OF- -AG-EN-CI-E-S--AND PEOPLE-1-N-TERVIEVIED. Approximately fifty-ninepotential sources of materials were submitted tothe Office of Vocational and Adult Education inthe Listing Plan. By the time implementationof the plan was effected, over one hundred twentyfederal organizations had been contacted and weredeemed to be real sources of materials. Severalhundred personnel in approxiinaterY ninety-twodifferent federal organizationS were' interviewedand available materials were collected from them.Without project budgetary and time constraints,the collection process could have been endlesssince there are hundreds of federal organizations,including the agencies and clearinghouses, whichstaff people full time year after year to prepare,process and distribute the types of materialsso4ght by this project. Thus, the number ofpeso. nnel interviewed in the agencies and theamount of material collected reflect what waspossible within the project framework, and arenot exhaustive. Exhibit 4.3 is a ,list of thosefederal organizations from which materials werecollected, reviewed, and annotated.

TYPES OF SOURCES-USED. Of the variousfederal organizations used as sources of materials,seventeen had material which cut across most .
vocational program areas and special interestgroups as well as across most federal agencies.These included the Government Printing Office,the National Audiovisual Center, the Library ofCongress, ERIC, the Consumer Education ResourceNetwork, and the National Technical informationService. These organizations collect, review,and distribute materials across a wide range ofsubject areas from as many government agenciesas possible.
Nineteen organizations contacted areresponsible for the development; collection ordistribution of materials covering a large rangeof subject matter within a given department ofthe Federal Government. These organizationsincluded offices, of commurIcations, information;public affairs, printing or publication specific tofederal departments or agencies. Examples ofthese would be the extensive materials madeavailable by the Department of Labor's threepublication .offices or by the Depatment ofAgriculture's Office of Communication andConsumer 'Information.
Fifty-six agencies with specificprogrammatic focus, and thus materials limitedto their subject. areas, were contacted formaterials. Examples of these agencies are theSoil Conservation Service of the Department ofAgriculture, U.S. FishandWildlife Service ofthe Department of interior; the Job Corps programof the Department of Labor, the Federal HighwayAdministration of the Department ofTransportation, and the Federal Employment forDisadvantaged Youth Division of the Office ofPersonnel Management.
OVERVIEW OF THE SOURCES. In 'thefollowing sections we will discuss some of themajor sources used

abstracts. Some are available free and some arefor sale. Even though not all agencies send twocopies of every single publication they develop,GPO has a multitude of material to distributeand/or sell. For example, in fiscal year 1978,the Government Printing Office's Main ProductionDepartment and six field printing plants printedgovernment publications at a cost of $1 80 millionWith $60 million for various federal agencies.This printing of material was above that printedby many_agencies themselves. Many of the morepopular federal publications are printed and soldthrough the Sales Program administered by GPO.for the public. Approximately 25,000 differenttitles are on sale on a continuing basis for domesticand foreign customers. The 25,000 titles breakdown into subscriptions and publications. Asubscription provides the subscriber with anumber of issues during a stated period of time.A publication identifies a single book, set, report,pamphlet, map or form.
At present, GPO does not publish a singlehardcopy catalog listing of the titles available,_for sale. Most of the titles appear in one ormore of the 270 Subject_ which aremade available free of chargei Exhibit 4.5 listsforty-nine bibliographies which we found helpfulin identifying materials for this project.
GPO also offers for sale over 400 differentperiodicals and basic manuals with supplementarymaterial. Each of the available subscriptions Iscatalogued in G c_als_and
All of the publications referred to so farwere most helpful to project staff in identifyingand locating some of the materials annotated inthe Listings. In fact, these publications includedfar more relevant material than we would havebeen able to annotate. Thus, only the materialwhich most obviously met our criteria was selectedfor review.
GPO also maintains a computer searchcapability This GPO. S-aies-Reference_ _F_Ile- (PRF) is available in 48Xmicrofiche which can be read on a microfichereader with reductions ranging from 24X to 48X.It is issued bimonthly and is sold by subscriptionat $50.00 per year domestically. We did notfind this resource a reasonable one to use withinthe framework of the project. To access thetitles from this computer list alone would havetaken months of staff time because very specificoccupational titles and other very specific "buzz"search words would have to be used.

provide bibliographic assistance. Instead, itspurpose is to direct those who have questions toresources that )ave the information and arewilling to share it with others. This includesnot only traditional sources of information suchas technical libraries, information- anddocuMentation centers, and abstracting andindexing services, but also such sources asprofetsional'societies, university research bureausand institutes, federal and state agencies, hobbygroups, and .grassroots citizens organizations.The criterion for registering an organization isnot its size but its ability and willingness toprovide information to others on a reasonablebasis;
HRM staff found the Referral Center avaluable mechanism for ensuring that our selectionof federal sources was thorough and the mostappropriate in terms of our needs.
NATIONAL LIBRARY SERVICE FOR THEBLIND AND PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED (NLS).
free national library program of braille andrecorded materials for blind and physicallyhandicapped persons is administered by the NLSof the Library of, Congress. With the cooperationof 'authors and publishers who grant permissionto use soty.:1 righted works, NLS selects and
---firottaii fulllength books, magazines and othermaterials in braille and on recorded disk andcassette. Reading materials are distributed toa cooperating network of fiftysix regional andmore than one hundrecridbregional (local) librarieswhere they are circulated to eligible borrowers;Reading materials are sent to borrowers andreturned to libraries by postagefree mail.Anyone who is unable to read or use standardprinted materials as a result of temporary orpermanent visual or physical limitations mayreceive service.
Linda Redmond of NLS spent several daysof her time searching the NLS computer database to assist us in identifying materialsappropriate for this project. Once again, wefound NLS to be a source with more materialsthan we could annotate. We were very surprisedat how many. federallyproduced publicationsrelated to vocational education the NLS hadacquired and transformed to the braille orrecorded forms. For example, numerousDepartment of Agriculture publications had beenprocessed this way;
THE NATIONAL AUDIOVISUAL- CEN-TER(NAC). The National Audiovisual Center of theGeneral Services Administration has thousands ofmotion pictures, film strips, slide sets, and videoand audio tapes which it makes avaialble toschools,:educational; civic, and community groupson a sale, rental, or free distribution basis,depending on the particular film. The 'range ofsubject matter includes training; vocational,educational, documentary, and military films,made for and by Government agencies. HRMstaff was pleased to learn that the NAC has manymaterials which are specific to vocational programand occupational areas listed in our criteria.Diana
toarranged for the NACis computer
staff to run a very thorough search using keywords in our list as well as the NAC's accesslist. This search turned up' many good materialswhich were annotated and included in the_Listings.
CO N U ME R_ ED UCA_T_I_Oisl_ NET_WOR ICSMany: government agencies now have consumereducation branches which are responsible formaking the public aware of relevant and usefulconsumer information developed through_ _theprogram offices; These blanches publishcatalogues which are widely diStributed throughfederal facilities and private nonprefitorganizations. There is material which istechnical.in nature but written for the consumerwhich cover's almost all the special subjectcategories for which HRM staff sought material.
Some of the consumer offides. which weremost helpful were the Consumer 1tiforinatiOtiProgram Office of the General ServicesAdministration, the Office of Communication andConsumer Information in the Department ofAgriculture and the Consumer Education ResourceNetwork (CERN) of the former HEW. CERN hatincorporated items into a computerized retrievalsystem which became operational in 1980. These,systems will be an excellent source for vocationaleducators In the future.
OTHERLA-RGE DATA BASES. There area number of large data bases which now containmany references to materials which Vocationaleducators would find useful., Apparently, thesedata bases previously did not contain usefulvocational education materials. The materialswere too technical and "researchy" in I nature.
4.31
More recentlyi though, vocational curriculum andinstructional materials have been keyed into thesesysterni. HRM staff were able to include someof the materials from these systems but theamount of appropriate materials in these systemswould take years to incorporate into the Listings.Also, vocational educators are aware of some of'these systems and make use of them already.These systems include the following:
MEDLARS, the computerized literatureretrieval services of the National Libraryof Medicine
Educational Resourr..-es- information Center(ERIC), a national information systemsupported and operated by the NationalInstitute of Education now within the newDepartment of Education.
Tb-eNat itinaVT4chtical-1-riforntatiOn--ServitetNITIS),_ the centrai' point in the UnitedStates for the public sale of governmentfunded research and development reportsand other analyses prepared by federalagencies, their contractors, or grantees.Administratively located within theDepartment of Commerce.
PUBLICATION OFFICES. Many federal:._agencies haVe publication offices Which are
excellent sources of reference materials foryoacational educators. In most cases, whenmaterial is not available from these offices dueto an exhausted supply, the material can beobtained from another sourc such as theGovernment Printing Office or the NationalTechnical information Service. These publicationoffices sometimes serve entire departments suchas the 1979 Publication Catalog of the U.S.Department of Health, Education and Welfare.In other cases, the publication office may bespecific to a given _federal program office, suchas the Bureau of Mines Publications and Articlesin the Department of the interior. TheDepartment of Labor has three offices whichshould be primary 'sources of materials forvocational educators. These are the publicationoffice of the Employment TrainingAdministration, the Information Office of theBureau of Labor Statistics and the PublicationsOffices of the Employment StandardsAdministration.

PR_OGRAlit__O_FFACES_. In some instances,the program offices of federal agencies print anddistribute their own materials. This seems tobe least true in those offices which are curriculumand instructional branches of agencies. Thesecurriculum branches altiicnh 'mandated by _lawto support the develov::ent of curriculummaterials_ seem to be appropriated the leastamount of money for.printing such materials oncethey are developed. Thus, a few single copiesof curriculum materials may sit_in governmentagencies or the offices of the developingcontractors, bnt are generally not available tothe public. This was also a finding of thedevelopers in the 1971 listings. Unfortunately,this dilemma remains for many curriculum officesand branches.
Chapter Five:PROCESSING OF MATERIALS
As a result of the selection 'ind collectionof materials, -HRM staff identified over 5,000curriculum and informational materials which areavailable from Federal Government Departments,Agencies, and Offices. However, some of thesematerials consisted of listings and bibliographies..Therefore, the actual number of individual itemswhich are available is far greater than the numberof which HRM staff obtained actual copies.Because of time limitations and the unavailabilityof some materials, HRM staff reviewed,annotated, keyed into the word processor andcorrected 1,146 items. After necessary deletionswere made, approximately 1,085 individualcitations remain. The total number of citailonsappearing in the booklets is greater due to thecross coding, thus causing an individdal citationto be listed under several subject areas. Theselistings are by no means exhaustive though it ishoped that they' constitute a comprehensivesample of the vast quantity of available materials.
,
, Because of such an overwhelming supply ofmaterials, an organized assessment method wasessential. One of the references which provedvaluable in the development of such a methodwas A Systematic Approach to Evaluating CareerEducation Materials at the Local Level. Thisdocument was also employed in identifying andclassifying materials and in determining theirusefulness. This chapter will discuss thedevelopment of a system for processing materials,steps in the processing of materials, and citationdevelopment and format.
DEVELOPMENT OF SYSTEM FORPROCESSING MATERIALS. A number of basiccomponents -of the processing system had to bedeveloped and put into place before individualcurriculum and instructional items could bereviewed. The first basic component to bedeveloped was a classification :schema fororganizing the materials. The following materialswere helpful in the development of the schema:
A Taxonomy of Instructional Programsin Higher Education (WesternInterstate Commission on Higher
EducationEducation)
for Department
o A Taxonomy of Instructional Programs(National Centee.for Higher EducationManagement Systems for the National'Center for Educational Statistics)
o Standard Terminology for Curriculumand Instruction in Local and StateSchool Systems, Handbook VI(prepared by the National.Center forEducational Statistics)
o A Classification of Educational SubjectMatter, Handbook Xi (prepared by theNational Center for EducationalStatistics)
o A comparison of HEGIS with the Newinstructional Programs Taxonomy(obtained from the National Center forEducational Statistics)
As discussed previously in Chapter 3 underClassification and Coding System, one hundredfortythree areas under which materials could begrouped were developed. ik Filing syster, whichwould maintain completed citation formsaccording to these subject -4-.:24s was :a ::t up.(This was accompits's ri by c:-eAting a separatefile for each subject arza.) Attar a citation waswritten for an item, ti cits.o.z.:1 form could bemaintained on file un,;.' ail iter, in that filewere ready for input inte the aut.3;:atic retrievalsystem.
The following thrte es were also set upand assisted in a smoot lc system:
Title Card_File., Title was setup so that each item uponreceipt by itsthan one copy of an Rt*.-,i 7:02 "!:"iitem would Z:e annotated 00,1, ;kr
each item was checked Agaiit: theCard File ta,:Vore it waA reviewedannotated. ,The accession nt:mbet theitem was also recorded or the title Gai.d.)
Source Car_d -File. An index card file inwhich staff could record the source fromwhich each item could be ordered wasdeveloped as materials were reviewed andannotated. Later, staff would compile theseseparate cards into the Source and OrderingInformation section which appears in eachbooklet; The information on each cardincluded an acronym code developed for thatsource, the exact name and address of thesources, and pertinent information on howto'order from that source.
Publistiers---Card- File. An index card fileon publishers. was developed to ensure thatreferences to the same publisher in differentcitations were .consistent in how thatpublisher's name was cited.
.A_utomatit- -Retrieval System. _ Another'component which was very important to theefficient grouping of citations into subjectareas was the development.of. an AutomaticRetriefill System. HRM used a wordprocessor .with the capability to storeiodiVidbal citations and then .group ("sort")therm into the one hundred forty7threesubject _areas. Each of _the one hundredferty==three subject areas was given anumerical classification code. Once theMaterials were reviewed and a decision wasMade as to which subject area or areas theitem belonged to, the correspondingtlassification codes were written, onto thecitation forms. Later; when an entirecitation was keyed into the word processor,the classification code was also keyed in.This system allowed a citation for anindividual item to be drawn from the system,for review, correction or 'revision, and yet,provided a mechanism for automatic groupingof the citations into as manysubject/citation groupings as was detired atany point in time.
Tape Code System for GPO -printing.Another coding system which had to bedeveloped was one which would indicate tothe automatic GPO pritrrert which sizes andstyles of print to use and how to space thematerials. This coding system was developedby GPO, given to HRM staff and keyed intoeach individual citation file in the word °processor.
I-N THE P ROCES 0 -FMATERIALS. This section outlines the generalsteps in the review and preparation of materialsfor Inclusion in the littings. A chart showingthese steps can be seen in Exhibit 5.1.
1. When Materials were received, theywere placed Within general subject andagency categOries before initial'screening.
5.2
Each item was initially screened todeterMine if It fit most of the selectioncriteria. The title of the Item waschecked against' the Title Card File toensure that the same item had notbeen processed previously.
3. An accession number wa!; assieesijo_.,the item and written boll, on the titlecard for the item and in the notebookon receipt of items. As each itemwas "received, it was numberedsequentially.
4. Uting the selection criteria discussedpreviously, the item was reviewed andclassified into the appropriatevocational subject/program areasand/Or special group areas;Classification numbers were thusplated-on the processing form for eachitem. These- classification numberswould later allow the automaticretrieval system to sort individualentries (items) into subject groupingsfor the final booklets.
5. The necessary bibliographicinformation was extracted Iron theitem and a description (annotation) ofthe item was written. This step willbe discussed in more detail underDevelopment ancLEarrnat of_Citations.
6. The item was placed: into theclassification system file with otheritems which would appear in thebooklets under the same subjectheading.
7. The code(s) which would allow theautomatic retrieval system to "group"the item s under the same headingwas/were placed on each item withina classification grouping.
8. The citation which was written foreach item was keyed into the automaticretrieval system.
. Printonts of the citations were proofedindividually for accuracy.
10. Corrections and revisions were madeto the citations once they were enteredinto the automatic retrieval system.
7rinteuts of thtf citations werere+ awe d by HRM staff, GPO staffand nt,.,er federal organizationlrsonne; to re.:rity current availability
nf
12. The items were then sorted by theautomatic retrieval system from theindividual citation files into subjectgroupings for the booklets accordingto the organizational schema approyedby ED.
13. A computer tape was then .generatedfrom .the.disks which stored the subjectsorts.
14. The c,,mputer tape was submitted toGPO.
15. GPO ran the tape and provided HRMstaff with camera ready prosorts which the staff revscorrected. GPO then r
fs of thewed andised and
corrected the camera ready copies.
1 F. The camera ready copies from GPOwere then submitted to the EDprinting officer along with othercamera ready copy of upfront text forthe booklets which bifere prepared bythe graphics staff engaged for theproject. ,

DEVELOP ME IstONI_D_F_Olt__M_A_T___O_F_CITATIONS. In developing the citation format,several styles were. considered and exhibited inthe Draft Listing Plan. These Styles appear inthis report as 'Exhibits 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. Inselecting a format, it was the intention of HRM:staff. and the AdYisorzoGroup to provide onewhich was clear and readable. In addition, everyeffort was made to provide 'format flexibility andthoroughness inthe Information provided. Exhibit5.6 presentt examples of the basic_ format whichwas selected. This basic format was alteredslightly to accomodate series entries.
The title of the series and other informationcommon to all its volumes are contained in thebibliographical information section. Followingthe iource section, individual entries for eachvolume are listed. This eliminated the repetitionof .,ommon information such as the series titleeach time an individual volume is cited; and yetIt allows each individual' title- to be cited andidentified as part of a series.
Each citation entry composed of threemain sections: Bibliographical InformationSection, Source Information, and an Annotation.These sections are detailed below.
BIBL-1-0-G-R-APH4CAL INFORMATION SECTION.'As a minimum, all citations include a title andthe federal sponsor and /or publisher (citationsfor the audiovisual materials produced by theGeneral Services Administration, NationalAudioVisual Center are exceptions). Federalsponsor and pOlisher infOrMation was omitted toallow for a thorough description of, the audiovisualmaterials.' However, in most cases, additionalinformation such as pub licaturnber, type ofmaterial, personal author, pagination and /or -pricewere available and thus were cited,. Furthermore,some citations do contain all nine componentswhich are listed below.

Publication-Number. In instances when thematerial contained a publication or a reportnumber, it was included in this section.
Type of. Material. If the materials cduldbe easily identified. by one of the categorieswhich appears on the Type of MaterialsList, Exhibit 3.5, then this descriptionwould be included. However, some citationsdo appear in the listings which do notprovide this _information due to the factthat some materials have been cited' frombibliographies.
Personal Author. The name(s) of up tothree personal authors were cited if theywere available.
Federal Sponsor. The federal agency whichsponsored and /or prepared the materials hasbeen listed as the sponsor. The actur mineof the agency at the time of public:itionhas been used and,, whenever possible, thename of the department or agency andspecific office within that department islisted.
Publisher.. This section contains the nameof the federal agency which published thematerial; in most cases the GovernmentPrinting Office. in a citation, two federalagencies are usually listed - the first oneis the federal sponsor and the second oneis the publisher. In cases e-e the sameagency sponsored and published the material,that agency will be mentioned only once.
PubUcation_Date. Only materials which havebeen 'Published or revised sit 1975 are
-cited in the listings. The year of ublicationis provided and Ina few instances the monthand year of publication were available andwere cited.
Pagination. Whenever possible paginationwas provided in the citation to give an ideaof the bulk of the material. In cases whereleaves were unpaginated or not Lonsecutivelypaginated, an approximation was provided.If the material -contained illustrations, thepage number was followed by theabbreviation "Ill." for illustrated.

Price. Up-to-date price information wasobtained and included for each citation.However, this type of information is notconstant.
Source Information. This 'section provideia Source .Code or Codes which give(s) thefederal organization from which the materialcan be ordered and the appropriate stockor order numbers or letters. A Source CodeList_ was' developed employing commonly-used acronyms as codes for easyidentification. It was assumed that mostreaders who are conversant with the FederalGovernment_ would recognize. a familiaracronym such as HUD as a code for theU.S. Department of Housing and UrbanDevelopment. This was done in an effortto eliminate interruptions so that the readerwould not have to refer constantly toanother section. The Source and Ordering.Information, however, does contain a list ofthe codes and the -corresponding __federalagencies. The United_StatesGoveritmentManuaL-andMaterials- P roduced b y --the ni ted- StateGovernment were among the reference toolsused in developias the source codes.'
Annotation_S-edtion. This section providesexplanatory notes detailing the _intendedusers and use of the material. A generaldescription of the material is often included.However, not all entries contain annotationsas they were used only if they werenecessary. For example, if a title did notreveal the contents 'of the material, anannotation stating the contents would havebeen Included. On the other hand, if atitle was self--explanatory, an annotationwould not have been necessary.
Chapter Six:ORGANIZATION AND COMPILATION OF THE LISTINGS
How to package the citations and what theother contents of the booklets might be weremajor questions addressed in the draft of theListing Plan. HRM recommended that the finaldetermination of the number of booklets, theirexact organization, and ,even whether or not"booklets* was the desired packaging approachbe made after two months of materials collection.We expected to have .a clearer idea of how muchmaterial would be available for our selection andwhether or not the amount of material woulddictate inclusion of the material as a section ofa booklet, or as an entire booklet.
There were at least four categories ofmaterials which had to be organized::
o the citations for ite seven vocationalprogram' areas,
o the citations for the special groups,
o the information on sources (agencies)and how to use them, and
o the other necessary Information on howto use the listings.
PROPOSED OPTIONS. There werenumerous options as to how to arrange, combineand Separate the citations for the variousvocational education and special group categoriesinto booklets. Five options suggested in the draftListing Plan were as follows:
1. One volume which includes thecitations divided into three sections:a) vocational program areas, (b)
special interest groups, and (c) sectionon sources and how to use them (total:one listing, three sections)
2. One volume which has citations forthe special interest groups integratedwith the appropriate vocationaleducation program areas with aseparate section on sources (total: onelisting, two sections)
6.1
3. One volume with the vocationalprogram area citations, anotherseparate volume with citations for thespecial groups and a third volumecontaining source information (total:three listings)
4. Separate volumes for each of the sevenvocational_ program, areas With twosections in the back of each volume:one _section containing citations for.special groups and another sectioncontaining citations_on sources Ind_ howto use them (total: seven listings,three sections each))
S. Separate volumes for each of thevocational program areas with thecitations for the special groupsintegrated into the categories to whichthey apply and a section in the backof eat...n volume on sources (total: sevenI:stings, two sections each) and
6. Sepirate volumes for each of thevocational prograin areas plus separatevolumes for three of the special group
areas for which there are manycitations with both a section on theother special groups and on sources inthe back of each volume (total: tenlistings, three sections each).
The panel members were evenly split intothree groups on how ..the .listings Should beorganized; One group recommended that -.therebe a listing for vocational prograntareas. Anothergroup felt there should be a listing for specialinterest groups. A third group wanted a listingfor sources only. The optionslisted above wouldrespond to and not exclude any priorityrecommended by the innel.
The choice of the organization plan wouldnot have to alter HRM's approach in surveyingagencies for materials in the three categories(vocational areas, special groups, sources).Rather, material would be collected and all
.appropriate codes for each citation recorded.After all materials were collected (or the timefor collection had been exhauiled), the preparedcitations could be examined to, determine howmany and what kind there were, and what thiswould say about the final organization.
FINAL ORGANIZ AT_I_O_N__-I-N-T0p-O-O-KLETS. After materials were collected andannotated, the decision was made to have eightbooklets. The seven vocational program areasWould each constitute a booklet and the materialsfor the special group would constitute an eighthbooklet. Thus, the final products of the projectare eight booklets of annotated citations. Theexact titles of the booklets are:
o Vocational Instructional Materials forAgrkulture and AgribusinessEducation Available from FederalAgencies '
o Vocational Instructional mattriali forBusiness and Office EdireitionAvailable from Federal Agencies
Homemakers -- EducationAvailable from Federal Agencies
Materials for Special Groups were placedboth Under the correct heading In the SpecialGroups booklet as well as under specific headingsin the other booklets when the two overlapped.An example of this is the item "PUildingEnvironments for the Elderly and theHandicapped: A Selected Bibliographiy" WhittWas placed under three categories. This itemwas printed under two areas in the Spettat NeedsGroups booklet, the sections on "Older Americans"and on the "Handicapped," and underand Construction" in the 1"-radeand IndustrialEducation booklets. Thus, material was classifiedboth under vocational education areas Whenspecific to those areas and under the,more general
-heading where it also belonged;
o Vocational Instructional Materialt forVocational. Home Economics__Education Available from-:Fec eralAgencies
Vocational Instructional _Materials forMar's ting and DistributiveEdu:ItIon Available from FederalAgencies
Vocational Instructional Materials forAllied Health EdUcation Availablefrom Federal. Agencies
o Vocational instructional Materials forTechnical Education Availablefrom Federal Agencies
o Vocational Instructional Materials forTrade and Industrial EducationAvailable from Federal Agencies
o Vocational Instructional Materials forSpecial Needs Groups --Handicapped, Disadvantaged,Older Americans, YouthEmployment, Displaced
6.2
EXACT-CONTENTS OF BOOKLETS. Thefinal format and organization of the exactcontents of each of the eight booklets are thesame except for the citations which vary, ofcourse, depending on the booklet. The contentsof each booklet are: __---
a front cover with the booklet title,
o an inside cover which lists all thebooklet titles and the GPO stocknumbers,
o a title page with the booklet title,the compiler's name (the HRM ProjectDirector), and the name and addressof the contractor (HRM),
o the back of the title page includes thecontract number, the exact name ofthe funding_agency and its placementwithin the Department of Education,and the standard disclaimer statement,
an "Acknowledgementsl page,
o a le of Contents,
o an Introduction,
o a section on "How to Use This Listing,"
a section containing "Source andOrdering Information,"
o the actual list of annotated citationsfor that particular program area andits subtopics,
o a listing of general reference materialsfor "Vocational Education,"
o a listing Of general reference materialsfor "Career Education,"
o a GPO order form,
a National Audiovisual Center orderform, and
a back cover.
The "Introduction" section in each bookletbriefly describes the project. The "I-low to Usethis Listing" section explains the individualcomponents of a citation and lists theabbreviations used throughwit the booklets. The"Source and Ordering Information" sectiondescribes how the items in the booklets -can beordered. The acronyms and the full names andaddresses of the federal organizations from whichthe materials can be ordered are given along withbrief descriptions of some of these souices.
In order that the booklets look like a "set,"the cover design is the same and the bookletsare printed in different colors to form a set.
Exhibit 6.1 contains those questions whichwere discussed by HRM staff and the AdvisoryGroup in initial attempts to determine the exactorganizational plan for the booklets.

Dear Dr. icily:
Human Resources Management, Inc. (1101), and the Office of_Education (OE) in_
HEW request your assistance in creating awareness of . valuable set of vocationaledvz.ztion materials readily available from federal agencies. Many agencies of -the
Un....1-States government develop a Large bady of ;urricuIum and instructional.aLsrial to train people for a'wide .!nnge of employment opportunities. The Office
of Education strives to effect bro;:u Use of these materials.

OBSERVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This study provided HRM staff with theportunity to delve further Into the workings
resources of federal organizations from .'a,:,vocational educator's point of view. The wealth!4af information and materials available is`phenomenal: The process of obtaining informationand;: materials was both simple and complex at
.timei This chapter will highlight some'the .ohservationi. and recommendations of the
`taff as a result of participation in the project.
BS-ERVA-TioONS: 7
1. , There is a vast .amount of material..readily available from .federalorganizations which could be useful tovocational educators;
. There are many sources of materialsfor any one program area or a given,occupation. For example, mostdepartments and agencies now have aconsumer education network ortleiringhOUSe: To find InfOrMationfor a given occupation or topic anindividual_ should consult or surveyeach Of these networks orclearinghouses as opposed to oneclearinghoUse In one location. Alsodifferent agencies in various.government:departments" as well as thevarious publication-public affairs; andcommunications offices. can provideMaterials for a *lien topic.
.The Amtent of the cooperation andhelpfekness Of federal personnelcontacted c = of be emphasized -too 7.much. Federal_ Peraoirine -in the officesreferred to above are knowledgeable'beet iothat materials do exist tortheiragencies and departMents.
4. There were several types oforganizations within each denartment 8.Which had readily aVallable material.Theil were the publication,communication or information offices
of tte-----;miiii'ag-Is en-cles, theclearinghouses within the departments,and the specific program offices ofthe agencies. Thus, within a givenhierarchy of a department such as theDepartment of Labor,' an, indlildualmust survey many different offices toexhaust the possible sources ofmaterials.
5. Since we were working on _a ;federal-contracti-ive--were- able to- obtaln__fr_eecopies Of most material requested withfew exceptions. The NationalTechnical information Service (NTIS)of the Department of Commerce has'recently compiled bibliographies ofmaterial which are specific tovocational educitioi and do fit the
.materials selection criteria of ,theproject. However, these bibliographiesare available only through sales,including .to_ other governmentagencies. Slone the project budget did
. not include sufficient finds to coverpurchase of the actual items ,we wereunable to include "for sale only"materials in our listings except in cases.where the actual materials . could bereviewed in publication offices.
No ormal permission was 'needed either toInterview personnel. or to obtain copies ofindividual items. Verbal permission.obtained from initial contacts with agencyheads was sufficient.'
Showing the agency personnel the project.insanitation list for the materials as wellas_severalexamples-of-appropriateltemt-iiii-In. effective way of clarifying for , themexactly . what types of material we wereseeking.
There are many, items which had beenidentified_ previously as print materialappropriate for dissemination to the general

pest of the sources surveyed were in theWashingtiO-,' D.C. area. There are valuableresources located elsewhere wiiiih we wereunable to tap due- to time and budgetaryconstraints. The National Energyinformation Center in Oak Ridge, Tennesseeis one example.
The activities ..of the project were often'-,intricately interrelated. Sometimes it wasdifficult to complete one task which logicallycame first without completing part of the -next .task..; For example, deterMinatioo of. 15.Criteria. for: materials selection logically isa-Atak which precedet agency contact. Yet,without _4104, .agency _contact to obtain ateeter/I-. Idea of what is available; it would

which each federal organization has Itsmaterial organized is different. Ourclassification system took this intoconsideration, facilitating contact withfederal personnel. This Classification system.Is specific enough that 'locator' wordscommunicated directly from our system toaccess materials fillip their systems.
In deciding under which vocational or special'needs topic .a given citation would be placed,the overriding criterion was whether or notthe educator might find the material useful.Thus, while definItiois of vocationalprogram areas and subject classificationsystems weri used as guide posts as to whereto,list a given item, cross referencing was'not limited to the macadamiaI n ter pretations.-----
The-, input of the Advisory Group was mosthelpful. The composition of the AdvisoryGroup played, a, key role. The grbuprepretented: all national. organizations andgeographical regions.. In addition., each ofthe group members had.experience it several!orals and areas, :including the 'grass roots"level. Thus, the' input received reflecteda true understanding of the 'needs' ofteachers in :the Classroom.
Items which could be used by vocationaleducators in the classroom' received thehighest priority of the type, of. materialssought...
The system; forms and procedures developedto process the materials from receiptthrough annotation worked very well. Inretrospect,. while some components of thesystem were 'slightly modified to conforinto new requirements throughout the Iroject,hiving a standard systeM, to work withroved most benefiCial.
Making sure that individual citations keyed'into the word processor were valid andcorrect before printing the citations out inbooklet format proved to be efficient. Thus,each citation had to be corrected once,rather than making changes each time itappeared \_\ Under a subject heading if It wascrosscoded to appear in several sections.
Arr
The :Title Card Index proved -to be anexcellent mechanism :for preventing, thesame item item from being annotated morethan once.
Project staff located much, more materialthan the prOject budgetallowed us to reviewand annotate. Thereforei bibliographieswhiCh contained several hundred or thousandappropriate items were annotated' as singleentities, rather than as individual items.
21. Most items located and selected were writtenand packaged in such a way that they couldbe used -at any program level. For example,some of the materials developed by theDepartment of Agriculture for junior highschool students were applicable to all levelsfor that topic and they were packaged sothat they could be used in adult programs.
22. The Inclusion of a detachable order form inthe informational leaflet was very effectivein treating awareness of the listings. Byproject end date many vocational educatorsacross the country had returned these formsrequesting thousands of the listings whichwere to be distributed free.
23. Since the return rate of the detachableorder form in the informational leaflet wasso high, it would probably be correct toassume that the means of distributing theleaflets were effective. Apparently, thecurriculum centers, state directors ofvocational .education and otherplaces /individuals to whom/where theleaflets . were sent did disseminate thempromptly to potentially interested users.By stating on the cover letters sent to, thedisseminators the list of all. of thoseindividuals and places ,dIsseminating thebroChures, duplication of effort wasminimized.
RECOMMFNDATIONS
While the obvious outcomes of this projectarethey
btioklets of annotated bibliographies,the recommendationS of prOjett staff are also.important so that valuable InsIghtt gained from
,,;,evidence and experience can be passed on. The
recommendations provided here not only. reflectFIRM staff experience, but also that of many ofthe federal personnel contacted and of vocationaleducators who are potential users of the listings.'Many of the recommendations listed in the 1971Listings project seemed to have been partiallyfufilled. There are more formalized systems todisseminate information about materials availablewithin many of the Departments. Most of theDepartments now have a more sophisticatedinformation system which in many cases iscomputerized; The Committee on GovernmentalAffairs of the United States Senate conductedan investigation into the Lac-k-of-Accountabitityof=Government-P-ublic-Infor m IshinPrograms. As a result of this investigation, newregulations are fostering federal activities whichpromote greater utilization of federally-producedinformation and materials.. Also, many agencieshave 'funded and are, presently funding studieswhich look more closely at how federal 'materialcan be more effectively disseminated to potentialusers.
Following are recommendations which are felt tobe most important for potential future activities:
1. A ofInformation- and Materialsfor VocationalE-aucatOrs should be prepared anddisseminated. There is a wealth offederally-sponsored information resourcesand materials which' would be helpful tovocational educators. Many of theseresources and materials are readily availablethrough_ telephone requests or simple mallorders for nominal charges or for free. Theissue is how vocational educators can bemade ,aware of these _resources. Acomprehensive directory -of resources wouldbe a simple and cost-effective mechanismfor disseminating this information.
HRM _staff reco end that this directoryinclude _sources of materials- Similar to thatIn the listings. So ces of information suchat_the National Referral' Center, consumer,.information' networks (e.g., those funded bythe Department of Education and the General.Services Administration), and othernetworks which have. toll-free. numbers andprovide on-the-spot teChnical assistance tousers should be ,Incorporated into this .
directory.

publications, , informationServices, teChnicil assistance _services,eligibility for use. requirements, bow-to-:order instructions, toil-free numbers,addrefies, and detachable information orService request forms.
These directories could organize the sourcessimilar to the grouping of them Exhibit4.3 Partial_ Listings of Sources Used. Also,en. Index of vocational education programand subject could be crossed with abreakdown of the types of services offeredfor easy reference.
Workshops to acquaint vocational. educatorswith federal' sources of information . and
,:material could be held.. National meetingsof professional organliatiohs, regional ornational meetings of state directors andsupervisors df vocational education, anddirectors of curriculum coordination centersmeetings would present opportunities forpresentations- on federal sources ofinformation services and materials.
. A=lotioe-1-4 tp_study_of the usage of the eightlistings should -be-conducted. To validatethe general 'opinion that listings ofannotations of materials is the bestdissemination. mechanism or makingvocational edticitori aware of federally-sponsored-materials and resources, a surreyof 'users and of ordering sources should be'conducted. Telephone calls made orquestionnaires sent. to potential users couldbe. mechanisms for.tletermining whether ornot the listings actuall_y_reached_vocational---educators teaching In the' classroom antic ifso itether or not they made use of thelistings. Further, contact could be madeWith the-National Audiovisual Center of the
-General Services Administration to tally the'number of orders they receiveclas a result
.
--of -the dlitribution of the -listings. Thisid be easy to determine since all thetations which can' be ordered from the
Center have as a part of their order numbera code which indicates that the ordirresulted from the reading of the listing.
