TY - JOUR AB - In 1987, the National Commission on Libraries and Information Sciences (NCLIS) announced the theme for the second White House Conference on Libraries and Information Services — “Productivity, Literacy, and Democracy.” In 1988, President Reagan signed Public Law 100–382, which provided for a second conference and authorized (but did not appropriate) $6 million to cover part of the expenses. The law directed the President to convene the conference not earlier than September 1, 1989 and not later than September 30, 1991. It stated that the conference shall be “planned and conducted under the direction of NCLIS.” VL - 3 IS - 2 SN - 0888-045X DO - 10.1108/eb025223 UR - https://doi.org/10.1108/eb025223 AU - Berger Patricia W.
