Five Year Review of Progress Made toward Implementation of the Resolutions Adopted at the 1979 White House Conference on Library and Information Service.
White House Conference on Library and Information Services.
This report documents progress made toward the implementation of 55 of the 64 resolutions adopted by the delegates to the first White House Conference on Library and Information Services in 1979. It is noted that implementation of the resolutions has been occurring and continues to occur at various levels: some resolutions were implemented simply through communication to a specific governmental body, while others have been achieved through state or federal legislative or executive actions and through work by individuals, agencies, organizations, and associations. Due to the changing political and economic environment, some resolutions have had to be tabled until conditions change. The individual resolutions are presented in six categories: (1) Goals and Objectives--13 resolutions; (2) Organizations and Finance--17 resolutions; (3) Technology, Resource Sharing and Education--18 resolutions; (4) Special Constituent Concerns--4 resolutions; (5) International Issues--6 resolutions; and (6) Conference Follow-Up and Commendation--6 resolutions. The full text of each resolution is provided together with notes on implementation steps taken to date, agencies and organizations involved, and miscellaneous comments. (BBM)
