For similar purposes certain bulletins are published by the accrediting department, such as the High School Manual, which gives detailed information as to entrance requirements and the conditions of accrediting; the Proceedings of the High School Conference; the Annual Report of the Visitor showing schools accredited and giving various studies, based on high school conditions, for the guidance and help of school authorities; a syllabus of H o m e Economics prepared by that section of the Conference in cooperation with the corresponding University department; a bulletin on Planning and Construction of High School Buildings; a bulletin, compiled in cooperation with the Conference committee, dealing with High School Libraries.
