CCBC Takes Over Read On Wisconsin

The Cooperative Children's Book Center of the School of Education at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has taken over coordination of the "Read On Wisconsin" literacy initiative. See the attached press release for more information, including the launch of the 2011-2012 Read on Wisconsin program!

We hope you'll consider using Read On Wisconsin titles and promoting the Read On Wisconsin program over the course of the coming year. Consider holding a Read On Wisconsin storytime or hosting a Read On Wisconsin book club in the school or public library. Share Read on Wisconsin titles with classroom teachers, too!

If you're already a Read On Wisconsin fan, we'd love to hear how you've used the program in your library or school.

A temporary Read On Wisconsin web site can be found at: http://readon.education.wisc.edu/

The site lists the Read On Wisconsin book selections chosen by the 2011-2012 Literacy Advisory Committee, as well as discussion questions for each book.

A new interactive Read On Wisconsin site is under development.

In the meantime, you can follow Read On Wisconsin on Twitter: @ReadOnWi

Read On!
