Are libraries in your areas interested in providing adult or family literacy services or building relationships with other literacy providers - but don't know where to start? The Clearinghouse Project at TCALL can help libraries get started. Visit TCALL's website and learn how to... * List your library's adult or family literacy program in our online Directory of Texas Literacy Providers <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/provider/search.htm> * Find other literacy program collaborators in your area - also using TCALL's Directory of Texas Literacy Providers <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/provider/search.htm> * Subscribe (free!) to the Texas Adult & Family Literacy Quarterly <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/publicationtoc.htm> , and read back issues online * Subscribe to the LiteracyTexasLink email discussion list <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/discussions/taalclserv.html> for volunteer and community-based literacy, hosted by TCALL * Access support for professional development through the Literacy Volunteer Training Initiative <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/volinit.html> at TCALL * Access free and loan materials from TCALL's mail-order Clearinghouse Library <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/library.htm> * Learn about upcoming conferences and professional development opportunities in literacy on TCALL's calendars <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/calendars.htm> These services are available at no cost to non-profit literacy providers and partners through TCALL's Clearinghouse Project, funded as an adult education state leadership project through Texas Education Agency, with support from Texas LEARNS <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/texaslearns/index.htm> , the Texas Adult & Family Literacy Collaboration. >From TCALL's home page, you can also link to and join Literacy Texas <http://www.literacytexas.org/> - a statewide coalition for connecting and equipping literacy programs through resources, training, networking and advocacy, and TCALL's partner in the Literacy Volunteer Training Initiative <http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/volinit.html> .
