<p class="MsoNormal">Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS) and OregonASK are thrilled to announce the
<a href="https://fosteringreaders.weebly.com/">Fostering Readers</a> resources are available to download and use in whatever way that makes sense for your library.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We recruited two children’s librarians and two elementary reading specialists, two of whom are bilingual, to develop the Fostering Readers resources. The materials were tested and updated through a pilot project. All the resources are available
at no cost to you on the Fostering Readers website. Resources include:<o:p></o:p></p>

Libraries and afterschool programs are essential community partners in the effort to increase the number of children reading at grade level by the end of third grade, which is a key indicator for high school graduation.<br>

We are proud to provide you with Fostering Readers materials to champion this important work.<o:p></o:p></p>
