What your child learns in the elementary school library program: That books can be good friends. How to choose a book for his or her interests. The difference between stories and informational text. How nonfiction is read differently from fiction. That reading can be exciting and fun. That reading helps us learn. How to use an index and other alphabetical order listings. How to find a book in the library (using the computer catalog in 2nd grade!) That libraries are great places to look for answers to life’s questions. How books are made: by real people (authors and illustrators) and machines (in publishing companies.) That it’s important to be choosy when picking a book or a website.
