Dear librarians...
Some of you may know me from my years of work
with the Women's Presses Library Project (WPLP).
I'm still doing that work -- at least in the
Interet world at (www.litwomen.org/wplp.html) --
we should have some new publishers there
in the next month.
However, I also have another piece of work I'm
doing with issues of women and literacy. The
litwomen.org website is an umbrella not only
for WPLP but for another initiative I've been
working on since 1996 - Women Leading Through
Reading. I've recently updated their portion of the
website. It includes a resource list of BASIC
English literacy materials that address women's
issues, a desciption of the work we've been doing,
a manual about how to organize and do training
for the Women Leading Through Reading book groups,
and a questionnaire so that I can continue
to add resources. It's located at:
www.litwomen.org/wltr.html
[resource list:
http://www.litwomen.org/Resources.html ] ja
This website will grow and change over the next
few years as it is part of my dissertation project
and a future for my career work.
I've not had a chance yet to figure out how to
contact the ALA section for literacy but I thought
some of you might be interested in this
resource. anything you have to add will be
appreciated.
Thanks for your continued support.
Mev
