Popis: The authors have prepared below a bibliography of core holdings for libraries that include materials for teacher education. All the materials listed are held by over 100 libraries nationwide. Several of the titles are, in fact, held by over 400libraries. When the authors originally began to consider developing a core collection of educational materials they were motivated by a desire to target books that would benefit students in the Graduate School of Education (GSE). With the onslaught of reduced book budgets and diminishing staff in libraries and universities, it has become even more imperative to identify methods of helping students that are less labor intensive. Librarians at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) havedeveloped bibliographies of appropriate subject holdings for years, so updating an existing bibliography of educational materials seemed logical.
