Literacy Board |
|
The Wood County District Public Library is committed to developing a model Family Literacy plan and serving as a referral center for services and materials in Wood County. The library will serve as a catalyst to markedly reduce illiteracy countywide through a coalition effort with area libraries, other literacy programs operating in the county, social service agencies, businesses, community groups, and educational organizations. An advisory board assists with advocacy, referrals, promotion, community input, and funding.
