This report on one of the activities of the Maine State Library Literacy Project, which was funded in 1986 through the Library Literacy Program, Title VI of the Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA), presents discussions of literacy, adult new readers, literacy programs in libraries, serving adult new readers, selecting materials, and how to use these publications. A brief description of the 40-page bibliography which resulted from the project notes that it is aimed at assisting local librarians and volunteers in selecting the most appropriate and desired materials for use with adult new readers, and was developed to give the user as broad a picture as possible of available materials for readers below the fourth grade level, with a few selections at the fifth grade level. The bibliography, which is then presented, includes a list of bibliographies and guides; the names and addresses of publishers of materials for, and about, new adult readers; annotated lists of fiction books, biographies, and comprehension texts; listings of reading and word mastery materials, content area and vocational materials, and films; materials for tutors of new readers; materials for learners of English as a second language; and books on religion, values, and cultural subjects.
