cljbooks_at_mtu.edu

The peer-reviewed Community Literacy Journal seeks book and/or multimedia
reviews for Spring 2007 issue. We are soliciting reviews of books and/or
multimedia, along with book/multimedia suggestions for review, that
address any social, cultural, rhetorical, or institutional aspects of
community literacy.

We invite you to submit reviews that you feel should be included in our
budding conversation about literacy work that exists outside mainstream
educational and work institutions. It can be found in institutionalized
programs devoted to adult education or lifelong learning or work with
marginalized populations, but it can also be found in more informal, ad
hoc projects.
