Not only book materials, but an ever-widening range of nonbook formats--computer software, filmstrips, records, models, study prints, and other types of media--are available within Hawaii's schools. This wide selection presents both an opportunity and a challenge to select the best mode of introducing or reinforcing learning for today's student. In recognition of the need to select the best nonbook materials available for the media-oriented student and to make optimum use of schools' financial resour- ces, School Library Resources has been provided. It supplies a list of nonbook materTiTTIFat have been evaluated according to their currency, relevance, and value to Hawaii's educational programs. Educators are encouraged trl draw upon the resources annotated in this list as they continue to develop and maintain effective instructional delivery. IL is hoped that the materials represented in this supplement will be a valuable selection tool in an on-going effort to provide high quality resources to sup- port instruction.
