  In this review I briefly discuss the theory of pre-main-sequence (PMS) Li
depletion in low-mass (0.075<M<1.2 Msun) stars and highlight those uncertain
parameters which lead to substantial differences in model predictions. I then
summarise observations of PMS stars in very young open clusters, clusters that
have just reached the ZAMS and briefly highlight recent developments in the
observation of Li in very low-mass PMS stars.
