Beaufort County Library convenes partners for second 'Literacy Together' meeting

Community organizations across Beaufort County met for the second Literacy Together convening, a collaboration led by the Beaufort County Library with financial support from the Public Library Foundation of Beaufort County. The initiative aims to increase access to reading opportunities and to coordinate summer reading and artist-in-residence programs across county libraries and partner organizations.

Why it matters: the collaboration pools resources from schools, nonprofits and libraries to broaden literacy supports countywide, especially during the summer months when children may lose learning momentum. The library and its foundation are listed as lead organizers and funders; the county's summer reading program and partner activities have posted details on the library website.
