Handbooks and annual reports covering all aspects of the Media Development Center, formerly called Audio Visual Services. The annual reports cover 1969-1973. They provide a detailed overview of the Center's activities, staff, budget, equipment, services and future requirements. The handbooks are meant as brief guides to the services and personnel of the Center. They list the Center's hours, procedures and policies for use, and service capabilities. The handbooks cover much of the 1970s, although copies for the beginning and middle of the decade are not represented in the collection.

Several miscellaneous reports include a catalog of audio-visual aids and equipment available at the Eau Claire State Teachers College in 1946. It was compiled by Louis E. Slock, chairman of the committee on visual aids and a specialist in the field. This was probably the first such catalog of audio-visual services available on the campus. An additional report (ca. 1966) provides five- and fifteen-year projections regarding the need for audio-visual services and the growth necessary to meet those needs.
