The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) is the primary federal entity for collecting,

analyzing, and reporting data related to education in the United States and other nations. It fulfills a

congressional mandate to collect, collate, analyze, and report full and complete statistics on the condition

of education in the United States; conduct and publish reports and specialized analyses of the meaning

and significance of such statistics; assist state and local education agencies in improving their statistical

systems; and review and report on education activities in foreign countries.

NCES activities are designed to address high priority education data needs; provide consistent, reliable,

complete, and accurate indicators of education status and trends; and report timely, useful, and high

 Introduction

This report contains data on state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia for state

fiscal year 1996. The data were collected through the State Library Agencies (STLA) Survey, the product 1

of a cooperative effort between the Chief Officers of State Library Agencies (COSLA), the U.S. National

Commission on Libraries and Information Science (NCLIS), and National Center for Education Statistics

(NCES). The FY 1996 STLA Survey is the third in the series.

Background

A state library agency is the official agency of a state charged by the law of that state with the extension

and development of public library services throughout the state, which has adequate authority under law of

the state to administer state plans in accordance with the provisions of the Library Services and

Construction Act (LSCA) (P.L. 101-254, as amended). Beyond these two essential roles, these agencies

vary greatly. They are located in various departments of state government and report to different

authorities. They are involved in various ways in the development and operation of electronic information

networks. They provide different types of services to different types of libraries. STLAs are increasingly

receiving broader legislative mandates affecting libraries of all types in the states (i.e., public, academic,

school, special, and library systems). For example, their administrative and developmental responsibilities

under LSCA Title III (Interlibrary Cooperation and Resource Sharing) affect the operation of thousands of

public, academic, school, and special libraries in the nation. STLAs provide important reference and

information services to state government and administer the state library and special operations such as

state archives, libraries for the blind and physically handicapped, and the State Center for the Book. The

STLA may also function as the state's public library at large, providing service to the general public and

state government employees. This report provides information on the variety of roles being played by such

agencies and the various combinations of fiscal, human, and informational resources invested in such work. 

The definitions of terms used in this report are provided in the survey facsimile at the end of the report.

Purpose of Survey

The STLA Survey provides state and federal policymakers, researchers, and other interested users with

descriptive information about STLAs in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Data on STLAs

complement NCES data collected on public, academic, school, and federal libraries, and on library

cooperatives. The public library data collected by the STLA survey, when added to the data collected by

the NCES Public Libraries Survey, will help complete the national picture of public library service. In

summary, the STLA Survey data will join the results of these other NCES data collections to provide a

comprehensive, national profile of libraries and information services.

Congressional Authorization 

The STLA Survey is conducted in compliance with the NCES mission "to collect, analyze, and disseminate

statistics and other information related to education in the United States...", P.L. 103-382, Title IV,

National Education Statistics Act of 1994, Sec 404 (a). 
 
The State Center for the Book is part of the Center for the Book program sponsored by the 2

Library of Congress which promotes books, reading, and literacy, and is hosted or funded by the state.

 Highlights

Governance

# Nearly all state library agencies (48 states and the District of Columbia) are located in the executive

branch of government. Of these, over 60 percent are part of a larger agency, the most common being 

the state department of education. In two states, Arizona and Michigan, the agency reports to the

legislature (tables 1a and 1b). 

Allied and Other Special Operations

# A total of 17 state library agencies reported having one or more allied operations (table 2). Allied

operations most frequently linked with a state library agency are the state archives (10 states), the state

records management service (11 states), and the state legislative reference/research service (eight

states). 

# Fourteen state agencies contract with libraries in their states to serve as resource or reference/

information service centers. Seventeen state agencies operate a State Center for the Book (table 2). 2

Electronic Network Development

# In all 50 states, the state library agency plans or monitors electronic network development, 43 states

operate such networks, and 46 states develop network content (table 3). 

# State agencies also provide significant support to library access to the Internet. All of them are

involved in facilitating library access to the Internet in one or more of the following ways: training

library staff or consulting in the use of the Internet; providing a subsidy for Internet participation;

providing equipment needed to access the Internet; mounting directories, data bases, or online catalogs;

or managing gophers, file servers, bulletin boards, or listservs (table 3).

Library Development Services

Services to Public Libraries

# Every state library agency provides these types of services to public libraries: administration of LSCA

(Library Services and Construction Act) grants, collection of library statistics, continuing education,

and library planning, evaluation, and research (table 4a). 

# Services to public libraries provided by at least three-quarters of state agencies include administration

of state aid, consulting services, interlibrary loan referral services, library legislation preparation or

review, literacy program support, reference referral services, state standards or guidelines, public

relations or promotional campaigns, summer reading program support, and union list development

(table 4a). 
A library in a business firm, professional association, government agency, or other organized 3

group; a library that is maintained by a parent organization to serve a specialized clientele; or an

independent library that may provide materials or services, or both, to the public, a segment of the public,

or to other libraries. Scope of collections and services are limited to the subject interests of the host or

parent institution. Includes libraries in state institutions.

vi

# Over three-fifths of state agencies provide Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) Group Access

Capability (GAC) to public libraries (table 4a).

# Less common services to public libraries include accreditation of libraries, cooperative purchasing of

library materials, preservation/conservation services, and retrospective conversion of bibliographic

records (table 4a).

Services to Academic Libraries

# Over two-thirds of state library agencies report the following services to the academic library sector: 

administration of LSCA Title III grants, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral services,

reference referral services, and union list development (table 4b). 

# Less common services to academic libraries provided by state agencies include cooperative purchasing

of library materials, literacy program support, preservation/conservation, retrospective conversion, and

state standards or guidelines. No state agency accredits academic libraries; only Washington state

certifies academic librarians (table 4b).

Services to School Library Media Centers

# Two-thirds of all state library agencies provide continuing education and interlibrary loan referral

services to school library media centers (LMCs) (table 4c). Services to LMCs provided by over half of

state agencies include administration of LSCA Title III grants and reference referral (table 4c).

# Less common services to LMCs include administration of state aid, cooperative purchasing of library

materials, and retrospective conversion. No state agency accredits LMCs or certifies LMC librarians

(table 4c).

Services to Special Libraries

# At least two-thirds of state agencies serve special libraries through administration of LSCA grants, 3

consulting services, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral, reference referral, and union list

development (table 4d). 

# Less common services to special libraries include administration of state aid, cooperative purchasing of

library materials, and summer reading program support. Only Nebraska accredits special libraries

and only Washington state certifies librarians of special libraries(table 4d).
A system is a group of autonomous libraries joined together by formal or informal agreements to 4

perform various services cooperatively such as resource sharing, communications, etc. Includes multitype

library systems and public library systems. Excludes multiple outlets under the same administration.

vii

Services to Systems

# Three-fifths of state agencies serve library systems through administration of LSCA grants, consulting 4

services, continuing education, library legislation preparation or review, and library planning,

evaluation, and research (table 4e). 

# Accreditation of systems is provided by only six states and certification of librarians, by only seven

states (table 4e). 

Service Outlets

# State library agencies reported a total of 154 service outlets. Main or central outlets accounted for 

45.5 percent of all outlets, other outlets (excluding bookmobiles) made up 48.1 percent, and

bookmobiles represented 6.5 percent of the total (table 5).

Collections

# The number of books and serial volumes held by state library agencies totaled 22.2 million, with New

York accounting for the largest collection (2.3 million) (table 7). Six state agencies had book and

serial volumes of over one million. In other states, these collections ranged from 500,000 to one

million (10 states); 200,000 to 499,999 (12 states); 100,000 to 199,999 (8 states); 50,000 to 99,999

(5 states); and 50,000 or less (8 states). The state library agency in Maryland does not maintain a 

collection, and the District of Columbia does not maintain a collection in its function as a state library

agency.

# The number of serial subscriptions held by state library agencies totaled almost 78,000, with New

York holding the largest number (over 14,200) (table 7). Ten state agencies reported serial

subscriptions of over 2,000. In other states, these collections ranged from 1,000 to 1,999 (5 states),

500 to 999 (19 states), 100 to 499 (13 states), and under 100 (2 states and the District of Columbia). 

Staff

# The total number of budgeted full-time equivalent (FTE) positions in state library agencies was

3,682 (table 11a). Librarians with ALA-MLS degrees accounted for 1,169 of these positions, or

31.8 percent of total FTE positions. Rhode Island reported the largest percentage (57.1) of ALA-MLS

librarians, and Utah reported the lowest (17.8 percent).

Income

# State library agencies reported a total income of $795.6 million in FY 96 (84.0 percent came from state

sources, 14.6 percent from federal, and 1.4 percent from other sources) (table 13).

# Of state library agency income received from state sources, nearly $433 million (64.8 percent) was

designated for state aid to libraries (table 15). Eight states had 75 percent or more of their income

from state sources set aside for state aid. Georgia had the largest percentage of state library agency
The District of Columbia Public Library functions as a state library agency and is eligible for 5

Federal LSCA (Library Services and Construction Act) funds in this capacity. The state library agency in

Hawaii is associated with the Hawaii State Public Library System and operates all public libraries within

its jurisdiction. The state funds for aid to libraries for these two agencies are reported on the NCES Public

Libraries Survey, rather than on the STLA survey, because of the unique situation of these two state

agencies, and in order to eliminate duplicative reporting of these data.

Alaska and Kansas have allied operations, but the expenditures are not from the state library 6

agency budget.

income set aside for state aid (97.0 percent). Six states and the District of Columbia targeted no state

funds for aid to libraries. Hawaii, Iowa, Louisiana, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, and the

District of Columbia reported state income only for operation of the state agency.5

Expenditures

# State library agencies reported total expenditures of over $767.2 million (table 16). The largest

percentage (83.3 percent) came from state funds, followed by federal funds (15.5 percent), and other

funds (1.2 percent). 

# In five states, over 90 percent of total expenditures were from state sources (table 16). These states

were Massachusetts (93.2 percent), Maryland (93.1 percent), Georgia (92.5 percent), New York

(92.0 percent), and Illinois (91.2 percent). Louisiana had the lowest percentage of expenditures from

state sources (53.6 percent), with most of its expenditures from federal sources. 

# Sixty-nine percent of total state library expenditures were for aid to libraries, with the largest

percentages expended on individual public libraries (52.1 percent) and public library systems

(17.2 percent) (tables 21 and 23c). Most aid-to-libraries expenditures (86.0 percent) were from state

sources, and 13.8 percent were from federal sources (table 18). 

# Fifteen state library agencies reported expenditures for allied operations (table 25). These expenditures

totaled almost $19.7 million and represented 2.6 percent of total expenditures by state library agencies. 

Of states reporting allied operations expenditures, California reported the highest expenditure ($2.5

million) and Arizona the lowest ($127,000).6

# Twenty-eight state library agencies reported a total of almost $28.9 million in grants and contracts

expenditures to assist public libraries with state education reform initiatives or the National Education

Goals (table 26). Four-fifths of the expenditures were used to promote adult literacy and lifelong

learning, and almost one-fifth to promote readiness for school. Two state agencies (Nebraska and

Rhode Island) focused their expenditures exclusively on readiness for school projects, and nine state

agencies (Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, New Jersey, Oklahoma, and

Texas) focused their expenditures exclusively on adult literacy and lifelong learning projects.

Appendixes

 Appendix A—Survey Methodology

This report contains data on state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia for state fiscal

year 1996. The data were collected through the State Library Agencies (STLA) Survey, FY 1996, conducted

by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). The reporting unit for the survey is the state library

agency.

Survey Software

The STLA Survey software was designed to minimize response burden and provide NCES with state-edited

data requiring minimal follow-up for data quality. Respondents are alerted to questionable data during the

data entry process by pop-up messages that prompt them to verify or revise the data, as appropriate. The

software also produces error/warning reports of questionable data, for review and further editing, if

appropriate. The survey software and user guide are provided to respondents on diskette and over the Internet. 

The user guide contains the instructions for using the software and a facsimile of the survey. The completed

survey can be transmitted by mail or over the Internet. 

Mail-out, Editing, and Follow-up

To reduce response burden, the survey was transmitted with prior-year data for items where the data are not

expected to change annually--most of Parts A through G, or about 40 percent of the survey. The respondent

was requested to review the pre-entered data and update any information that had changed. All other numeric

data cells were initialized with -2. The software does not permit a data file to be saved by a respondent if a -2

remains in any data cell. The survey respondent was instructed to answer -1 to any numeric item if they could

not provide the data. Alpha-numeric items which are left blank indicate nonresponse (i.e., not reported or not

applicable). Missing data are not imputed. A zero (0) is a reported response and indicates the STLA had none

of the item. 

The survey was mailed to the states in mid-October, 1996 and had a due date of January 15, 1997. The last

submission was received on September 2, 1997. The Bureau of the Census was the data collection and

processing agent for NCES.

Nonresponse follow-up was conducted in February, 1997, and the data were edited from February through

September of 1997. After data submissions were received from all 50 states and the District of Columbia, the

preliminary national file and the tables for this report were reviewed for data quality by the STLA Steering

Committee, NCES, and Census. The states were contacted to request verification or correction of

questionable data.

The STLA Survey software performs four types of data edit checks:

1. Relational edit checks. A data consistency check between related data elements. For example, an error

message is generated if the STLA is designated as a Federal depository library but does not indicate the

type of Federal depository library.

2. Out-of-range edit checks. A comparison of data reported for an item to the "acceptable range" of values. 

For example, an error message is generated if annual Circulation per annual Library Visits is less than 0.5.
118

3. Arithmetic edit checks. An arithmetic accuracy check of a reported total and its parts to the generated

total. For example, an error message is generated if Total Operating Expenditures is not equal to the sum

of its parts (Total Staff Expenditures, Collection Expenditures, and Other Operating Expenditures). 

4. Blank/zero/invalid edit checks. A check of reported data against acceptable values. For example, an error

message is generated if Book/Serial Volumes is 0 or blank.

Survey Data Items

The survey collects data on 462 items, including governance, public service hours, number and types of

service outlets, type and size of collections, library service transactions and development transactions, support

of electronic information networks, allied operations, staff, and income and expenditures. Data are also

collected on STLA services to public, academic, school, and special libraries, and to library systems. The data

items and definitions are provided in the survey facsimile at the end of this report.

Universe

The state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia (51 total) comprise the survey universe.

Response Rate

Unit Response. The FY 1996 STLA Survey achieved a 100 percent response rate. 

Item Response. Most items had a 100 percent response rate. The lowest response rate to any item was

80.4 percent (library visits). Survey items with less than a 100 percent response rate are listed below by

response rate ranges, data item number, and name:

95.0 - 99.9 percent response 80.4 - 84.9 percent response

006 - Zip + 4 (physical location address) 114 - Library visits

011 - Zip + 4 (mailing address)

016 - Internet (chief officer)

021 - Internet (survey respondent)

095 - Serial subscriptions

096 - Government documents

111 - Interlibrary loans received from other

 libraries/document delivery services

210 - Academic and school libraries

Reporting Period. The FY 1996 STLA Survey requested data for state fiscal year 1996, except for

Part B—Governance and Part J—Staff data which were requested as of October 1, 1996. The fiscal year of

most states is July 1 to June 30. Exceptions are New York (April 1 to March 31); Texas and Hawaii

(September 1 to August 31); and Alabama, the District of Columbia, and Michigan (October 1 to

September 30).

Using the Data to Make Comparisons. The STLA data are not imputed for item nonresponse, so state

and national totals may be underestimated for some items. State comparisons should be made with caution

because states may vary in their item response rates, fiscal year reporting periods, and adherence to survey

definitions. The District of Columbia, while not a state, is included in the survey. Special care should be used

in comparing District of Columbia data with state data.

 sequence of still images that create the illusion of movement when 

 projected in rapid successions (usually 18 or 24 frames per second). 

 Motion pictures are produced in a variety of sizes (8, super 8, 16, 

 35, 55, and 70 mm) and in a variety of forms (cartridge, cassette, 

 loop, and reel). 

094 Video materials. These are materials on which pictures, sound, or 

 both are recorded. Electronic playback reproduces pictures, sounds, 

 or both using a television receiver or monitor. 

 

095 Serial subscriptions (titles, not individual issues) (exclude 

 microforms). These include subscriptions received, both purchased 

 and gifts. This count does not include the number of individual 

 issues, but rather each serial title. Report the total number of 

 titles subscribed to, including duplicates. Do not report 

 individual issues.

097 General collection. 

14. Enter <Y>es or <N>o for each item to indicate whether the STLA 

 maintains a special collection (i.e., at the support, research, or 

 comprehensive level of collection development) in a subject area. 

 Note: The American Library Association and the Association of 

 Research Libraries' North American Collections Inventory Project 

 identifies five levels of collection development. A special 

 collection is a group of materials in a subject area that are

selected and maintained at the support, research, or comprehensive

level. Do not report collections selected and maintained at the

basic level or minimal level as special. The five collection levels

are defined below. 

 Collection Levels 

 Comprehensive level. A collection in which a library endeavors, so 

 far as is reasonably possible, to include all significant works of 

 recorded knowledge (publications, manuscripts, periodicals, other
145

 forms) for a necessarily defined field. The aim, if not the 

 achievement, is exhaustiveness. 

 Research level. A collection which includes the major source 

 materials required for governmental, professional, and independent 

 research, including seminal works, materials containing research 

 reporting, new findings, scientific experimental results, and other 

 information useful to researchers. It includes all important 

 reference works, a wide selection of specialized monographs, as well 

 as a very extensive collection of journals and major indexing and 

 abstracting services in the field. 

 Support level. A collection intended to support legislative and 

 governmental interests and programs, network responsibilities, and 

 sustained independent study. It is adequate to maintain knowledge 

 of a subject required for limited or generalized purposes of less 

 than research intensity. It includes a wide range of basic 

 monographs, complete of the works of primary writers, 

 selections from the works of secondary or controversial writers, a 

 selection of representative journals, and the reference tools and 

 fundamental bibliographical works pertaining to the subject. 

 Basic level. A collection of materials which will introduce and 

 define a subject and indicate the varieties of information available 

 elsewhere. It may include major dictionaries and encyclopedias, 

 selected editions of important works, general surveys, important 

 bibliographies, handbooks, and a few major periodicals. A 

 collection developed at this level is not sufficiently intense to 

 support government programs or independent study in the subject area 

 involved. It may, however, include strong retrospective holdings in 

 subject areas that were, at one time, a higher priority of the STLA.

 

 Minimal level. A subject area in which few selections are made 

 beyond very basic works. 

 Subject Areas 

098 Agriculture. Materials on general agriculture, including farming 

 and land management; plant culture, including botany, horticulture, 

 landscaping, and gardening; forestry; animal culture, including 

 wildlife, livestock, pets, and veterinary medicine; aquaculture, 

 including fishing and fisheries; and hunting. 

099 Education. Materials related to the theory and practice of 

 education from early childhood education through higher education;

 special aspects of education, including its forms, social aspects, 

 and types; individual institutions and institutional organs; and 

 textbooks. 

100 Genealogy. Primary and secondary materials adequate to study and 

 document historical family relationships. Includes records of vital 

 statistics, such as births, marriages, deaths; publications 

 documenting established family trees, pedigrees, and lineages; 

 family histories and biographies; and materials on heraldry. Such a 

 collection may focus on the State, a region, the entire United 

 States, or the world. 

101 Law. Primary and secondary materials of the State itself including 

 constitutions, codes and statutes, session laws, and other 

 legislative documents and materials; court reports and rules, 

 appellate court records and briefs, opinions of the attorney 

 general; decisions, rules, and regulations of administrative 

 agencies and tribunals; digests and encyclopedias; citators, 

 indexes, local treatises, and practice books; publications of law 

 schools and bar associations; and primary materials of local 

 governments under the State's jurisdiction. Similar materials that 

 are regional or local in scope may also be collected. 

102 Library and information science. Primary and secondary materials

related to the study of librarians, librarianship, and library
146

collections, services, programs, and facilities; information

specialists and information centers; books, non-print formats, and

electronic sources of information; bibliography, copyright, and

censorship and intellectual freedom; and histories, statistics, and

other reports on individual libraries and groups of libraries. 

103 State history. Materials bearing upon the political, social, 

 economic, and cultural history of the State and its antecedent 

 colonial and territorial governments. Related regional and local 

 materials may also be included. May include printed histories; 

 maps; pamphlets, broadsides, and programs; pictures; newspapers and 

 periodicals; speeches and sermons; biographies, journals, diaries, 

 letters and other personal papers, and private manuscripts; and 

 books by State authors. Such a collection is usually kept 

 up-to-date through the inclusion of historical narrative and 

 statistical information relative to the present time.
