This SPEC KIT presents survey results and documents from 53 U.S. academic members of the Association of Research Libraries in 1990 who provided current information on student employment policies and practices. The survey results identify the following employment policies and practices: (1) funding sources and wages; (2) duties and rewards; (3) recruitment and hiring practices; and (4) supervisory, training, and evaluation methods. Issues and trends are also identified. Student library employment documents (e.g., supervisors' manuals, employees' handbooks, recruitment policies, and job descriptions) included in the kit were submitted by the universities of Alabama, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri (Columbia), Nebraska, New Mexico, Rochester, Southern California, Texas (Austin), and Washington, as well as Brigham Young University, Case Western Reserve University, Colorado State University, Indiana University, Iowa State University, Johns Hopkins University, Michigan State University, New York University, Princeton University, and Washington State University.
