Libraries bridge learning gap between home and school
Briefly

Research shows that when a parent regularly reads to their young children, it not only improves their language and communication skills, it also helps cultivate a lifelong love for reading.
Libraries actually bridge a learning gap between home and the classroom for many kids. "New York Public Library After School" is a free drop-in program helping readers build confidence.
