* Issue 3.1 Fall 2008 Titles

Our issue 3.1, Fall 2008, will be a special issue dedicated to papers
presented at the National Community Literacy Summit in Washington, D.C. in
the spring of 2007. The issue will be guest edited by Tanya Shuy, National
Institute for Literacy Program Director, who helped plan and facilitate
this first Summit, with the goal of "bringing together more than 80
community leaders, scholars, and literacy experts to begin a national
dialogue on improving and expanding literacy efforts at the community
level."

Tanya has edited a special issue of Scientific Studies of Reading (2006)
and works with national groups, literacy workers, and coalitions to assist
in the sustainable development of collaborations and research agendas. We
think this issue of the CLJ will be an important opportunity to learn
about emerging research and the range of community literacy experiences in
federal, academic, and provider contexts.
