Special Problem (Master of Library Science)--University of the Philippines Diliman March 1977. This study aims to accomplish the following: (1) to describe and analyze the characteristics of school librarians in private non-sectarian secondary schools in Metropolitan Manila in terms of: (a) their personal background; (b) their educational background; (c) occupational status; (d) mobility; and (e) professional activities; (2) to identify the problems and needs of the professional school librarians which serve as impediments to their professional growth and proper acceptance or recognition from their fellow librarians; (3) to direct the attention of the school administrators, the Bureau of Secondary Education, library educators, and the Philippine Library Association to the present condition of this particular group of librarians as well as the libraries they serve and indicate how the existing conditions could be remedied; and (4) to propose for further investigation problems relating to the secondary school librarians. The questionnaire method was used in this normative survey. The data presented in this study were drawn from the responses of the female school librarians since there is no conclusive ratio between males and females. Analysis of the data has led to these conclusions: The female secondary school librarian in a private non-sectarian secondary school in Metropolitan Manila -- (1) is 32 years old, married, and a holder of a Bachelor of Science in Education degree, major in Library Science; (2) is not a civil service eligible; (3) receives an average monthly salary of P454.00 and works 45 hours a week; (4) serves an average of 1,789 secondary school students in a school library with an averaga book collection of 8,427 volumes; (5) has held the position of a high school librarian for an average of 7 years; (6) performs more non-professional tasks than professional functions; (7) does not have an adequate budget and time to attend professional development activities. Neither does she have the resources to read professional periodicals; (8) works in a school library where resources and facilities are inadequate; (9) does not have a varied work experience; and (10) is neither a member of the integrated Philippine Library Association nor of any local professional library organization.
