Following an overview of the Library Literacy Program, projects are reviewed and categorized according to 10 major subject headings, each of which constitutes a separate section: (1) General Literacy Services; (2) Coalition Building; (3) Public Awareness Campaigns; (4) Training: Librarians, Tutors, and Trainers; (5) Collection Development; (6) Targeted Populations; (7) Computer-Assisted Approaches; (8) Employment Oriented Projects; (9) Rural Projects; and (10) Shoestring Projects. Each section discusses the common elements that characterize the projects and includes selected examples. At the end of each section is a list of project grantees. Three appendixes are included: statistical information and analysis (funding history; fiscal year 1987 applications; and comparison of fiscal years 1986 and 1987 applications and awards); projects listed by state and library (provides library name and address); and activities engaged in by LSCA Title VI projects.
