Every Child Ready to Read®

Man and child reading Early literacy is what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write.  Research shows that children get ready to read years before they start school. The Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Library System wants every child in Albuquerque to be given the best possible chance to succeed. Towards this effort, the Library System has adopted Every Child Ready to Read®, an early childhood literacy program developed by the American Library Association.
