| contents | Toward a Just and Productive Society: An Analysis of the Recommendations of the White House Conference on Library and Information Services. McCook, Kathleen de la Pena Geist, Paula Access to Information Economic Development Futures (of Society) Information Policy Information Services Library Services Lifelong Learning Public Policy This paper assesses the recommendations made during the 1991 White House Conference on Library and Information Services (WHCLIS) from a public policy view, and identifies their meaning for the public's uses and needs for library and information services. Recommendations from the WHCLIS conference which fit best with national goals were found to focus on four policy areas: (1) lifelong learning; (2) industrial policy; (3) economic stimulus: rural and urban development; and (4) information infrastructure. Each of these four policy areas is identified and discussed in terms of library and information services. WHCLIS recommendations that are relevant to meet goals for these policy areas are identified by number (keyed to the appendix). Following the analyses of the policy areas, possible implementations of the recommendations are discussed, and an analysis of policy recommendations is appended. Each WHCLIS recommendation is numbered and identified with the area it is relevant to; some contribute to more than one goal. (JLB) |
