Trends identified include the funding of more specific projects, resulting in less population being served by greater funds; the increased visibility of programs dealing with health information; the increased use of compact discs; the use of technology to deliver information; steady use of interlibrary loans; and the funding of literacy programs. Also discussed are long-range planning projects, needs assessments, support for institutional programs by local or regional libraries, and common problems encountered by institutional librarians. In addition, a tabular summary of LSCA-funded projects by state includes, for each project, the participating library and project number, a brief project description, the amount of LSCA funding, the amount of state or local funding, and the total amount of funding.
