El Dorado County Library among best in state

El Dorado County led the state in 2013 with an estimated 79 percent of families reading to their children on a daily basis, according to Children Now.

El Dorado County Library reaches nearly one in six children, ages birth through 5 annually, offering early literacy programs at all six branches, including outreach to preschools and child care programs throughout the county.

There will be an early literacy celebration May 22 at 10am at the Placerville Library, 345 Fair Lane.

Immediately following the recognition, people may participate in Mother Goose on the Loose story time with our families and “stay and play” at the mobile child development center.
