Educational Resources Committee Members Rebecca Groom Te Velde, MMus, AAGO, Co-Director It is the mission of the Committee on Educational Resources to prepare and make available to AGO members books, monographs, articles, and audio-visual materials which will assist them in improving their knowledge and skills in organ playing, organ technology, keyboard skills, choral directing, church music, and general musicianship. The committee attempts not to duplicate educational aids that already exist, but aims to create new material in areas of study where no suitable publications are available. As a unit of the Educational Concerns area of the Guild, the committee maintains contact with other units within the educational activities of the AGO and attempts to respond to their needs, as well as to serve the membership as a whole. In particular the committee works in conjunction with the Professional Certification Committee to produce materials related to the Certification program. The Guild's educational resources include study guides for Guild certification, professional development publications, as well as materials useful for organ installation. The most recent additions include the DVD's of the "Master Series" that feature notable organists in recital and workshop presentations.
