Toolkit Premise
Both public and school libraries are community centers at heart, and both have the same goal:
to promote and support lifelong learning
for everyone in the communities they serve.

Early Childhood Literacy Research
Brain Research
A child’s brain “doubles in size in the first year, and by age three it has reached 80 percent of its adult volume. At age two or three, the brain has up to twice as many synapses as it will have in adulthood (Urban Child Institute n.d.).
ECRR2
Two randomized studies of library training for childcare workers found statistically significant results occurred for three (alphabetic principle, phonological awareness, and concepts about print) of the four early literacy principles (Dresang and Campana 2011, 23).

Summer Reading Research
Reader’s interests and exercise of reading material choice = motivation and sustains summer reading engagement
Free access to books and technology and book ownership
Focus summer reading guidance on pleasure-seeking, leisure reading rather than skills development (McGill-Franzen, Ward, and Cahill 2016, 595).
