Abstract

This article looks into the organization and administration of adult education in the U.S. One research found out that 79 million dollars is allocated on adult education in 17,000 school districts. It was concluded that every state ought to provide specific financial aid to adult education as a part of its foundation program of assistance to public schools. Another research claimed that both professional leadership and state aid are necessary for the growth of adult education. A major contribution to evaluation of public library service emphasized standards and principles of educational services to adults which are based on knowledge of and relationship to the community.
