Rural Literacy Sponsorship Networks
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-15323-0 (ISBN)
Mapping the dense literacy sponsorship network of a small rural town in the southeastern United States, Nichols offers a window into the challenges and successes of collective literacy sponsorship. Through an original mapping-focused approach, the book explores multiple social and environmental layers that construct literacy sponsorship writ large.
This approach provides a novel methodological entry to rural literacies and will be key reading for rural community literacy advocates, literacy scholars, graduate students, and researchers.
Amy McCleese Nichols is the Director of Writing Resources and Associate Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning at Berea College.
