Summary:This annotated bibliography was prepared as a resource to help institutions of higher education create an institutional climate conducive to the academic success of students with learning disabilities (LD) on their campuses. The entries were compiled from searches of three computerized databases as well as a manual library search. The selected entries were those which used the most valid samplings for their data and presented information having significant implications for colleges and universities concerned with students with learning disabilities. The entries are organized in five categories: (1) background information (19 entries), (2) diagnosis and identification (18 entries), (3) model programs for LD college students (16 entries), (4) developmental education programs and services (22 entries), and (5) support services (45 entries). Within each category, information includes author, title, source or publisher, year, and a brief description. (JDD)
