Reading Corners
Reading Corners equips each classroom with a dedicated selection of high-quality STEAM books covering Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math. By situating libraries directly within the classroom, we ensure that students and teachers have effortless access to essential resources.
These specialized libraries empower teachers by providing supplementary materials that enhance their lesson plans. Similarly, students benefit from the convenience of accessing books right at their desks—whether during breaks, before school, or after classes. The presence of a classroom library grants students immediate access to compelling and educational books in their language. This setup supports independent learning and intellectual curiosity and fosters a lasting enthusiasm for reading. Through Reading Corners, we aim to ignite students’ passions and broaden their academic horizons in critical STEAM disciplines.

These core values ensure that our libraries are more than just collections of books—they are dynamic resources that foster critical thinking, empathy, and a commitment to positive global citizenship.
Children’s Literacy Programs
Once a library is established, it becomes crucial to introduce students to the enriching world of books. The primary goal of our literacy programs is straightforward: ignite a passion for reading among children. These programs are also designed to educate teachers and administrators on the best practices for engaging children with their new library resources.
Our literacy programs focus on engagement, training, and sustainability. We create an enthusiastic atmosphere by making reading an exciting activity and encouraging children to explore their new library from day one. We also recognize the crucial role of educators in this process, equipping them with the skills and techniques needed to maintain this excitement and engagement, ensuring that the libraries remain active in the educational environment.
Our literacy programs are integral to why our libraries achieve immediate use and continue to be a vital resource in fostering literacy and enhancing educational outcomes.
Teacher Training & Ongoing Support
At The Library Project, we recognize the critical role educators play in the success of our libraries. We offer comprehensive training and ongoing support to ensure that teachers and administrators are well-equipped to make the most of the resources provided.
Our approach includes librarian training, on-site training, online training, and ongoing support. This multifaceted strategy allows us to address various needs and preferences, ensuring that every educator receives the guidance and tools necessary to manage their new school’s library well.
Through these comprehensive training and support initiatives, The Library Project ensures that educators are prepared and continually supported in their efforts to foster a culture of reading and learning in their schools. This holistic approach enhances the effectiveness of our library donations and maximizes their impact on students’ educational journeys.
