	Introduction: The items in this bibliography were selected from a broad review of the research and professional literature on reading and reading comprehension for students in grades 4&amp;ndash;12. To provide an array of resources for a range of needs, we included both research summaries and policy documents. We make no claims that this bibliography contains all of the recent important research documents about adolescent literacy. However, in the documents reviewed here, the reader will find discussions of all the current important research issues in this area. We believe that in reviewing policy documents, we have identified all the major documents currently available on the connection between research on adolescent literacy and the development of state- and district-level policies to support improvements in adolescent literacy outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
	Additional information about adolescent literacy may be found in another Center on Instruction title, Academic Literacy Instruction for Adolescents: A Guidance Document from the Center on Instruction. That document details five research-based recommendations for improving instruction in academic literacy for content-area teachers as well as recommendations for interventions for struggling readers and instruction for English language learners (ELLs). It was also written for staff members in the Regional Comprehensive Centers in their work with states to improve adolescent literacy outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;
