As a result
of the end of federal core funding, The Centre is dismantling its library, once
the largest English-language adult literacy collection in Canada, and the only
one providing service across the country.
Many parts of
the collection are being relocated. We have sent our Easy-to-Read materials to
the Fraser Hickson library, and our ESL teaching and learning materials to the
Eleanor London Côte Saint-Luc Public Library, while Our Learning Disabilities
collection has gone to the Montreal Centre for Learning Disabilities. Teaching
and learning materials in the areas of adult and family literacy, numeracy,
aboriginal literacy, women's education, and workplace literacy and training are
going to the Centre de documentation sur l’éducation des adultes et lacondition féminine (CDÉACF). We will make announcements as these materials
become available.
The Centre is
keeping its research and policy documents related to adult literacy. We will
make an announcement when we are able to make these documents publicly
available again.
