Designed to give students the time and practice needed to integrate key literacy skills learned in class, as much as inculcate a love and habit of reading, DIL’s Libraries and Reading Program:

• Creates child-friendly library spaces at our schools, which are often the community’s first exposure to library services.

• Involves students, teachers, and our own training department in selecting and reviewing each book for quality, readability (level of difficulty), content, and contextual relevance.

• Increases access to quality reading experiences through designated library periods, after-school reading clubs, book borrowing, and levelled e-books delivered via tablets to support reading development.

Today’s reader is tomorrow’s leader.
