Program II: System Film Collection and Film Programs
Objectives: To develop the System collection of non - curriculum 16rca and
8mm films, to make them available to individuals, organizations and
libraries in the System, to prepare programs to enhance their use
by agencies and educational organizations, and to provide maintenance
and annual updating of collection.
Performance measurement (Evaluation):
1. Circulate half of collection of 16mm films once each month.
Current collection - 400 films approximately. End of year
collection - 500 films approximately.
a. Showings: 225 per month; 2,700 per year.
b. Reach an average audience of 25 people per showing.
Audience: 5,625 per month; 67,500 per year.

c. Audience: 250 people per month; 3,000 per year.
3. Circulate 16mm films for use by groups in public education,
enhanced by program packages to supplement film.
Estimate for new year:
a. No. of program packages: 5
b. No. of group showings: 10 per month beginning Jan.; 80 per year
c. Audience: 250 per month; 2,000 for the year.
4. Circulate collection of 8mm films 8 times during year. Collection
currently consists of 675 films for 27 libraries.
Estimate for new year: 5,400 films circulated.
Activities:
1. Assistant System Librarian will select new titles for collection
of 16mm films for use of individuals, clubs, adult education classes,
programs for the elderly, job training groups, hobby groups,
and other organizations involved in community information and
education. Film collection will be housed with MRC film collection;
requests will be filled from both collections. A catalog of holdings
will be printed and distributed.
Workload:
Selection of approximately 100 new films.
Order of additional storage cabinet.
Printing of original catalog in 500 copies with supplements.
Distribution of catalogs to libraries and interested agencies.
Subscription to basic film reviewing journals.
Timetable:
Ordering - throughout year.
Preparation of catalog in September; supplements in
January and May.
'e,
2. Assistant System Librarian will circulate 16mm films to
System members on individual requests.
Workload:
Boxing, shipping and maintaining circulation records on
individual request (200 films /month; 2,400 per year)
Cleaning and repairing film when returned.
Timetable: Continuous on request.
3. Assistant System Librarian will circulate 16mm films to System
libraries participating in monthly film circuit. A bibliography
of related books will be prepared to accompany films as an aid
in organizing programs. A survey will be taken of System
libraries and their film audiences to determine subjects for
future selection, needs among libraries for film projectors
and other equipment, and needs for training in film handling,
Librarian will prepare a film selection and circulation policy
on basis of survey.
Workload:
Selection of films (2 -3 per library participating - estimate
20 monthly)
Maintenance of scheduled (estimate 7 libraries with 10
showings monthly)
Boxing, shipping and maintaining circulation records for
20 films rotated monthly on circuit.

speakers to complement films. Publications, catalogs and brochures
listing films available for purchase, rental or free loan will be
obtained. Rental and free -loan films will be used in program
preparation. A descriptive list of program packages will be
printed and distributed to System members and community agencies
and organizations contacted for the program.
Workload:
Preparation of at least five basic programs on subjects of
current interest, such as Mexican- American culture, drug
abuse education, ecology, energy crisis, etc.

n.
NEED:
5. Assistant System Librarian will select additional titles for packets
for new system members and will replace worn films, and will
supervise their bimonthly exchange on the circuit.
Workload:
Selection, ordering and processing of 200 8mm films.
Printing 500 copies of catalog.
Mailing of packets on circuit (27 libraries x 6 months = 162 packets
mailed)
Timetable:
Selection and organization - by December
Circulation - bimonthly exchange of packets.
1. Request for films by area libraries: 75% have used 16mm films in the
first six months of operation. Area circulation now excee$s Corpus
Christi use of films. All have and use 8mm films.
2. Xo System member other than the MRC currently holds 16mm films.
3. At an average cost of $250 -30q few libraries individually can
hope to begin a 16mm film collection.
4. Film collections are more useful if they can be shared, since groups
having seen a film once probably will not use that film again for a
certain period of time. (An exception would be job training or adult
education classes, which might want to use a film for each new group
starting training.)
5. Eventually, programs of loaning films from one System to another will
be developed, extending the usefulness of individual collections.
6. E�rery community supplied at least one agency request for film
subjects. Total agency response in the first year: 153
7• Large portion of System population is low income ($6,91+9 mean income
of families and unrelated individuals and little education (average
of median school years completed by county - 8.55). Traditional
library materials in the form of print cannot assist the illiterate
and semi- literate, while films can educate, inform and provide
recreation for them.
8. Collection of 8mm films has circulated as much as 93% in one month
(630 circulations of total collection of 675). Use is high, since
large percentage of population owns or has access to 8mm projector.
Average cost of films is no more than cost of book. Films tend to be
of high interest until patrons have seen entire collection; therefore,
circuit of films (exchanging packets of 25 monthly) among 27 libraries
should keep titles current.
