Ellenberger Covington & Burling Washington, D.C. Represented by I Jane Hammond of AALL 4 pennsylvania library association Rn Statement of the Pennsylvania Library Association regarding the Report of the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science The Pennsylvania Library Association endorses the goal ofthe National Commission to provide any individual in the U. S. with equal opportunity of access to that part of the total information resources which will satisfy his education, working, cultural and leisureneeds and interests, regardless of the individual's location, socialor physical condition, or level of intellectual achievement and the two major objectives toward attaining this 411 goal to strengthen, develop or create, when needed, human andmaterial resources which are supportive of high quality library and informa- tion services, and to tie together the library and information facilities in thecountry through a shared communication system basedon a framework of local, state and federal networks interconnected accordingto a unified plan and common standards. Pennsylvania libraries already recognize that efficient andeconomical library and information services for our citizens dependupon an effective national library network if we are to avoid costly duplicationof resources and services, and significant gaps in these services. Our recentlypublished Master Plan Report now under review by the State's librariesand librarians recognizes the need for a statewide system to correspond withthe interstate network proposed by the National Commission's draft.To quote the Master Plan (pt. 12, p. 24) 'L) 1 . r 2 It is our concern that the library development within Pennsylvania be in harmony with national and regional goals. The growth nationally of information networks and delivery systems makes possible the sharing of national resources. Library services within the State must be developed in sucha way as to take advantage of these systems and to insure that the Stateparticipates in their development and control. Networks should be designedto remove barriers to user's access to library resources and services. We further recognize that the national program considersstates as essential building blocks in the national information system, and thatone of its objectives is to strengthen statewideresources and systems. As a state association, we are particularly concerned with the role of statewide resources and systems in the NCLIS plan, andwill address the remainder of our testimony to this concern. 1. Funding. The national program statement declares that theprogram "[rests] on the understanding that the Federal Government would fund those aspects of the national program that are of commonconcern nationally in return for a commitment on the part of the states to accept, in cooperation with the local governments, a fair share of the responsi- bility of funding libraries within their own jurisdiction." Further, the draft states thatthe state government would accept the major share of the cost of coordinating and of supporting the intrastate components of the network as well as the cost of participating in multi-state planning operations."It is clear that fair share is a major share; therefore, we question the practicality of shifting to the states funding responsibilities for all library activities not under the Federal umbrella. Two categories of costsare given: developing and operating; however, the draft is unclear in its references tocosts. It would appear that the intent is for states to assume operatingcosts, with some Federal assistance for bringing state and local collections and services up to standard. The draft containsno estimate of the cost of either developing or operating the nationalprogram. Our ideals of services are unattainable goals if not accompanied by sufficient financing. 2. Priorities for Network Development. Limited funding will be a certain reality, and selectionamong your objectives is a certain requirement.
