Abstract

The purpose of this selected bibliography is to provide librarians with up-to-date information on monographs in the field of adult education. This bibliography relates to adult learning, with a focus on higher education, work-related training, and professional development. Works dealing with adult learning strategies, adult development, and informal learning are included. Mentoring is also considered, both in higher education and in the workplace. This bibliography does not, however, cover the topics of literacy or English as a second language. The focus is on works that relate to the United States, but a few notable additions consider the global need for adult education and how that need is being met.
