Visual Literacy, Libraries and Community Development
Abstract
The process of community development can be described as one which embraces the efforts of the people and the government working to improve the economic, social and cultural conditions of an area so that the area can contribute fully to the process of the larger community in which it exists. The success or failure of this interaction has largely to do with the coordination it receives. It is here that the library plays an important role through the articulation of community concerns and interests, program development, and resource coordination as they are described in Patrick Penland's and James Williams' Community Psychology and Coordination.
