Early Literacy: A Sustainable Statewide Approach

American Libraries

Still in its infancy, Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy is supporting the establishment of literacy-based storytimes in libraries, training for library staff, exchange of support materials and publications, and community advocacy. The program has a large and growing website with numerous resources for library staff and educators. A decentralized approach allows local libraries to implement the activities they are comfortable with, thereby moving the state's entire library community forward.
