        1) What are the one or two most pressing needs of
           your PA school or library for the implementation
           of effective and sustainable telecommunications
           programs?

One of the problems we have at Schenley HIgh School is finding money to
keep the technology updated.  Most of our computers are already antiques.

The second problem is maintaining the equipment.  We have a teacher and
one student who is attempting to maintain our computers. The problem is
the teacher has a full class load and a department head.  The student is
given one period to learn enough so he can help out.


        2) How do the needs of schools and libraries differ,
           and how are they complementary?

There is little difference except that we are all looking for funding to
purchase and maintain the technology in our schools and libraries.

        3) How do the needs of rural schools and libraries
           differ from those of schools and libraries in
           urban areas?

I believe the rural schools have less funds available to them.
