II. Space Allocations
 A. Housing Materials
 1. Provide for each type of materials and equipment: pro-
 fessional library, films, filmstrips, slides, recordings, re-
 cording tapes, models, museum objects, vertical file ma-
 terial, and other materials and equipment.
 2. The amount of each type of material would determine the
 space needed.
 B. Distributing Materials
 Distribution of materials is one of the main functions of
 the county materials center. This involves several processes:
 booking, shipping, and repairing.
 1. Booking or scheduling materials requires office and desk
 space according to the size of the center and the system
 used.
 2. Packing and shipping materials are especially important.
 Storage facilities are needed in this area for shipping
 cases, boxes, and other necessary equipment. Some cen-
 ters place packaged materials in mail bags to be delivered
 by truck or school bus; some use the U. S. Mail; others
 have materials picked up by individuals coming to the
 center. These activities necessitate adequate provision for
 parking space in the school administrative area.
 3. Repairing materials, especially films, is an essential ac-
 tivity requiring space.
C. Previewing and auditioning by individual teachers or small
 groups
D. Conference rooms for large or small groups as needed
E. Offices and work areas are necessary for the professional
 and clerical staff to administer the center effectively.
F. Production facilities for graphic and photographic materials
 to be produced locally
