Crystal Reports Collection Analysis Rolling Ridge Elementary 1-800-245-9540 FAX: 1-800-369-5490 Email: [email protected] web site: www.mackin.com 3505 County Rd 42 West, Burnsville, MN 55306-3804 Collection Analysis Summary Rolling Ridge Elementary Thank you for using Mackin's free Collection Analysis service. We will be contacting you to review the analysis and consult with you about free solutions to improve your collection. In the meantime, here is a summary of your analysis. In putting the analysis together, we first indicate the average age and number of titles in each part of your collection, then we compare it to a brand new "exemplary" collection that would meet size standards for the number of students in your school. You should then be able to see some of the potential problem areas in your collection and where the collection may fall short of standards. Obviously, what is exemplary for one school may not be completely right for another school, but this does give us a good starting point. You know better than we how your collection is used, so please adapt these recommendations as you see fit. The following summaries highlight the areas that seem the most in need of attention in the report on the next few pages. Please look at your report closely to determine detailed size, age and weeding needs. v With the information you supplied, we were able to successfully categorize 100% of your MARC records. v Throughout the collection, the average date of publication is 2007 or 14 years old. v The average age is 4 years older than recommended. v You currently have 19,921 titles in your collection, of which 19,919 were classified. v When looking at the overall balance of each Dewey section, additional titles needed are 345. v Overall your books per student is 32, while your goal is 15 books per student. This calculation does not include the "Unclassified" Category. v Size deficits are greatest in the 500s, 700s and 600s areas. v The oldest areas are the Reference, 900s and 700s. "Research consistently demonstrates that well-equipped, quality school library media centers with professional staff directly relate to the academic success of their students." --Keith Curry Lance, 2005 These facts may be helpful when presenting your analysis to others: v One of the primary features of the LSL program—increasing the size of the book collections—was significantly related to increased test scores. On average, each additional book per student that libraries obtained was associated with an increase of 0.44 percentage points in student test scores.¹ v Students are more likely to succeed when they have library programs that are well staffed, well funded, technologically well equipped, well stocked, and more accessible.² Reference: 1.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Shadow of the Titanic The Extraordinary Stories of Those Who Survived by Andrew Wilson 100 unsinkable facts about the Titanic. Her last signal rocket flared out a century ago. And the desperate cries from her decks became still a long time past. R.M.S. Titanic, perhaps the most famous ship that ever sailed, hit an iceberg, and the next morning — April 15, 1912 — sank beneath the North Atlantic waves. She took 1,517 women, men and children to the bottom of the ocean with her, including some of the most famous names of her time. Posted! A link has been posted to your Facebook feed. Interested in this topic? You may also want to view these photo galleries: But Titanic's voyage continues - in movies, books, TV shows and the public's fascination. Part historic chronicle, part human drama, part paranormal thriller, the tale of the doomed ship still has us in its hooks. Today her story shifts like starlight sparkling on sea ice. Accounts and numbers differ, research changes "myth" into "fact," and vice versa. But her saga won't end. So to mark the 100th anniversary of her loss, we give you 100 remembrances of the Titanic. 'The ship of dreams' 1. At the time of her launch, the Royal Mail Steamer Titanic was the largest man-made moving object on Earth. 2. The Titanic cost $7.5 million to build. 3. The White Star Line's Titanic and her sister ship Olympic were designed to compete with the famous Cunard liners Lusitania and Mauretania.

    BREAKING THE ICE THAT KEEPS CHILDREN FROM HISTORY Pe?zs the Titanic Bear. Daisy Corning Stone Spedden. Intro. Leighton H. Coleman 111. Illus. Laurie McGaw. Little, Brown and Co., 1994 (Madison Press Book). 64 pp. $19.95 cloth. ISBN 0-316-80625-0. As a worker in historical education, I applaud Little, Brown and Company's Polar the Titanic Bear. This book gives young readers a splendid visual picture of the upper-class world before World War One. As aparent, I am disappointed that the sagging text detracts from the publisher's claim that touts Polar as a "delightful read-aloud picture book." The story, written by Dorothy Stone Spedden in 1912, chronicles the world travels of the wealthy Speddens with their only son and his stuffed polar bear, Polar. Polar accompanies his young "master" aboard luxurious ocean liners, one of them the Titanic, whose sinking they both survive! Our enchantment with historical mysteries, such as the sinking of the Titanic, helps ensure healthy sales for this book. Serious disadvantages plague the story which was originally written over 80 years ago as a child's Christmas gift. Without the excitement of the Titanic disaster, the story seems long and tedious. The overly charming prose style further adds to squirming by young listeners. The introduction and epilogue penned by the discoverer of the manuscript, Spedden's relative Leighton H. Coleman, areintended to explainpre-World War One life. However, few young readers have the patience to read beyond the story, and, when read aloud these mini-essays become further passages to "translate" to children.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER c. 1955 (910.45 Lor) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. If you read only one book aboutthe Titanic, this should be it. This is the book that all other authors refer to.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE NIGHT: THE CARPATHIA, THE CALIFORNIANAND THE NIGHT THE TITANIC WAS LOST c. 2009 (910.45 But) This is a very readable account of the other ships so closely tied to the Titanic — the Carpathia who rushed to her aid and the Californian who saw Titanic’s flares but did nothing.
