Share Your Dia Plans


El día de los niños/El dia de los libros (Children's Day/Book Day), commonly known as Día, is a celebration every day of children, families, and reading that culminates yearly on April 30.

Día is a nationally recognized initiative that emphasizes the importance of literacy for all children of all linguistic and cultural backgrounds. It is a daily commitment to linking children and their families to diverse books, languages, and cultures. The common goals of all Día programming are to:

  • Celebrate children and connect them to the world of learning through books, stories and libraries.
  • Nurture cognitive and literacy development in ways that honor and embrace a child’s home language and culture.
  • Introduce families to community resources that provide opportunities for learning through multiple literacies.
  • Recognize and respect culture, heritage and language as powerful tools for strengthening families and communities.

Submit your programming to the National Día Program Registry

 

Are you hosting a 2025 program to celebrate Día? We’d love to hear about it!

ALSC invites libraries, schools, and community organizations to register their upcoming programs in the National Día Program Registry. By using the registry, program planners help build a searchable database that showcases all types and sizes of programs that celebrate El día de los niños/El día de los libros (Children’s Day/Book Day) and Diversity In Action. The Día Program Registry also is a space where planners can share diversity programming ideas and practices with colleagues around the country.
