Over the past year, hundreds of individuals and organizations from across the country have contributed to creating the Summit's consensus document, >From the Margins to the Mainstream: An Action Agenda for Literacy. On September 7, the National Coalition for Literacy will release the document at an event on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Coalition members, lawmakers, and other partners will participate in the launch and panel discussion. Visit the National Institute for Literacy website, www.nifl.gov <http://www.nifl.gov> for all the details of the event. You'll also be able to view the event live via webcast from the Institute's website beginning at 12:15 p.m. EST on the 7th. You can join the webcast at any point or watch it later, since it will be archived and available for at least a month We hope that many of you will bring together your colleagues, students, and community members to watch the event and discuss how you might use the action agenda in your work. >From the Margins to the Mainstream: An Action Agenda for Literacy will be available online September 7 on the Coalition website, www.nifl.gov/coalition/nclhome.html <http://www.nifl.gov/coalition/nclhome.html> , or by calling the NIFL hotline at 1-800-228-8813.
