Library Programs. Library Literacy Program : Abstracts of Funded Projects 1986.

This publication provides abstracts of the 239 literacy activities supported through projects funded under the Library Literacy Program, Title IV, of the Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA) during fiscal year 1986. The abstracts have been grouped for easy reference by type of activity. In cases where the projects cover more than one topic, they have been included under the topic that appeared to be the main emphasis of the project. Abstracts are arranged under the following topics: (1) innovative approaches; (2) targeted populations; (3) urban and rural programs; (4) librarian training; (5) tutor recruitment and training; (6) coalition building; (7) employment-oriented projects; (8) computer-assisted approaches; (9) public awareness campaigns; (10) collection development; and (11) general literacy services. The library name and address, project director, and amount of funding are provided for each project. Appendices include an analysis of fiscal year 1986 applications for funding and an index which lists the projects by state and by the library within the state. (KM)
