The title of the twenty-eighth yearbook mirrors the theme of the 2005 conference--&quot;Learning in the 21st Century with Traditional and Electronic Literacies.&quot; The editors chose the title &quot;Multiple Literacies in the 21st Century&quot; in an attempt to reflect the contents of this yearbook which seem to approach literacy from a myriad of ways. The keynotes portray this multiplicity. In his presidential address, Jon Shapiro shares a personal account of literacy that reminds everyone of each learner's individual journey.
