Abstract

IN THE LITERATURE 149 Conclusion A systematic search is necessary to pull together a complete bibli- ography on dyslexia, because the literature is divided among several quite different disciplines. If the results of this search are shared, a general saving in time available and probably an enhancement of the general quality of research efforts will result. The Reading Clinic of the University of Pennsylvania has produced an annotated bibliography of some 500 articles through 1965 from the entire spectrum of professions dealing with dyslexia and severe reading disabilities. The bibliography will be published in two stages this year. The complexity of the subject matter led to creation of an index which permits manipulation of the information in ways not previously possible The urgency of the need for information gathering on dyslexia has been generally recognized. The Reading Clinic staff have long been aware of the need and have begun to meet it. As of July 1967 there were 331 programs in progress on dyslexia and related reading disabilities supported by $32,372,720 from the De- partment of Health, Education, and Welfare: 172 ($8,346,957) in research; 75 ($14,425,824) in training; and 84 ($9,599,939) in diagnosis and/or treatment.* Not one program suggested
