Abstract

The National Commission on Libraries and Information Science (NCLIS) is a permanent, independent agency of the US Government established by Public Law 91–345 in 1970 to advise the President and the Congress on the nation's library and information needs and to develop and implement policies and plans in this area. The Overview discusses the organization of the Commission, its major programs and recent activities, and describes its new programs and plans. These programs focus on: (1) Access to Information, (2) Improving Library and Information Services to Meet Changing Needs, (3) Information Technology and Productivity, and (4) Policy Planning and Advice.
