February 14 is celebrated as library lovers’ day each year to honor libraries, librarians, book lovers, and lovers of libraries
India Literacy Project truly believes in inculcating reading habit in students right from a young age.
For reading expands minds, enriches lives, shapes dreams, and opens doors to infinite possibilities.
Throughout the year, India Literacy Project works with various NGO partners, local government authorities and CSR partners to open child friendly libraries in schools and villages across various Indian states.
Not just opening libraries but India Literacy Project also conducts reading level assessments via grow by reading methodology wherein books are color coded using six colors, green to yellow (GROW BY- green, red, orange, white, blue, yellow).
Children are first assessed on their reading levels and mapped to one of the colors. The children are then encouraged to pick books from their level.
Through child friendly books and a structured framework and monitoring process, library programs bring the joy of reading to the classroom and help improve reading in native and English language.
