Faculty members of many different library schools participated in an Institute on Library Service to the Blind and Physically Handicapped at Florida State University, August 27-September 1, 1978. These proceedings from that Institute include the instructional materials--revised as a result of the discussions at the Institute--used in five core courses at the Florida State University School of Library Science; five presentation papers on library services to the handicapped; a selected bibliography on library services to the handicapped; and a list of the institute's consultants, speakers, and participants. The subjects of the core courses described are foundations, administration, information services, materials, and research methods; the subjects of the papers are national library service for the handicapped, an historical summary of library service to the handicapped and institutionalized, current research on library service to the handicapped, standards for such library service, employment of handicapped librarians, and audiovisual materials on the handicapped--the latter paper also provides a directory of producers and distributors and a subject index to the materials.
