The 1993 National Adult Literacy Survey estimated that one on four Floridians lack fundamental literacy skills. Florida is fortunate to have a wide selection of adult education and literacy programs that provide free or low cost instructional services. Public libraries, community based literacy organizations, public schools, faith based organizations and community colleges work together to provide a continuum of services that range from reading and English language tutoring to classes and on-line adult high school and GED instruction. Libraries and library based literacy programs have been an important partner in this educational system, often serving as a catalyst in establishing literacy programs and support services in underserved communities. All libraries in Florida support literacy efforts, and they provide direct services in thirty of Florida's 67 counties. Ninety-three per cent of them provide one-to-one tutoring. Eighty-nine percent provide small group instruction, and eighty-nine per cent use volunteers for instruction. Seventy per-cent use computers for instruction. This publication profiles five library based literacy programs that have established successful instructional initiatives in different program areas. 1.
