Abstract

"Regina Minudri reminded us that: ""Most important people have been young adults at some time in their lives!"" She also urged us to remember that ""while we are speaking on issues, hopefully if not all in one voice, at least in the same key."" Let's remember this as work is done on our agenda building task this morning. And so we are about to embark on the agenda-building process. It's time to work together to create a document to serve as a plan, a road map for the future using our higher order thinking skills. If we do our work well today, we truly do have the opportunity to fulfill Marilyn Miller's prophesy: ""This Allerton will be viewed as a milestone in the development of library service to youth."" This paper identifies the recommendations of the participants of the 1986 Allerton Institute for the Youth Agenda."
