Every Child Ready to Read @ your library®
First Edition

The Every Child Ready to Read @ your library initiative was developed by the Public Library Association and the Association for Library Service to Children of the American Library Association. One aspect of the initiative is to offer these scripts for workshops for parents and caregivers of children newborn to age five on early literacy. The scripts were developed by researchers funded through the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development of the National Institutes of Health. This information is the basis for the applications on this website. For further information see www.ala.org/everychild.
The following scripts were developed in 2004.
