1000 Books Before Kindergarten programs are springing up in libraries around the country. Learn about this new way to create a DIY initiative that provides preschoolers with rich reading experiences and let’s their parents and caregivers experience the library in fresh ways. A bonus for the staff - motivation by a new, creative challenge. Explore a fun passive early-childhood initiative that is easy to plan, maximizes your staff resources, and enables you to reach more young families.
