contents California Literacy Campaign: Program Effectiveness Review II. Wurzbacher, Mark F. Yeannakis, Christine H. Adult Literacy Educational Assessment Library Services Literacy Education Program Descriptions Program Effectiveness Program Evaluation Public Libraries Questionnaires State Aid State Libraries State Programs Surveys Tutorial Programs Tutors This review of the California Literacy Campaign (CLC), a statewide, community-oriented, library-based program funded under the California Library Services Act, is designed to determine the extent to which CLC has been effective in carrying out its mission, the manner in which increased effectiveness may be achieved, and ways in which program effectiveness can be more accurately gauged in the future. Following background information on CLC, results of the study are presented in three chapters that describe the learners and tutors who participated in the evaluation, present descriptive information on the tutoring experience from both learner and tutor perspectives, and provide descriptive and analytical information on learner skills improvement and life enhancement outcomes. A final chapter summarizes the results of the study and provides recommendations for program modifications and future evaluations. Statistical information is presented in 17 tables, and the following information is appended: (1) a listing of communities served by the CLC; (2) a CLC program location map; (3) a CLC contact list; (4) a CLC status report; (5) the student interview guide; and (6) the tutor questionnaire. An executive summary is also provided. (KM)
