  • Adult New Reader Collection - Model Project. Final Performance Report. Dawood, Rosemary Adult Literacy Adult Reading Programs English (Second Language) Library Material Selection Library Planning Library Services Literacy Education Nontraditional Education Program Administration Program Evaluation Reading Materials The Adult New Reader Collection-Model Project proposed to serve five targeted groups by providing literacy, language development, and English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) materials. The five groups included: literacy tutors; students identified by the staff and matched to their trained tutors; adult library users not connected to a literacy program who browse through the collection; adults learning to read English who need special ESL materials; teachers working with adults learning to read English and their students. The project established three major goals: to significantly enlarge the current adult new reader collection; to develop and enlarge the basic language building collection of materials already part of the literature section's collection; and to expand the ESL collection of print and non-print with multiple copies for greater availability. Details of administration of the project are provided, including a breakdown of staff time and use of funds. (KM)
