About me:

Access Books is a Los Angeles-based non-profit organization dedicated to providing much-needed books to classroom and community libraries. The more books children have access to in their school libraries, the more they will read! Research has validated the close correlation that exists between successful reading and the number of books in school libraries. In fact, the size of the school library collection is the best predictor of academic achievement, second only to the absence of poverty. visit our web site at www.accessbooks.net

Who I'd like to meet:

People who are passionate about equality and children's literacy! Volunteers, teachers and school administrators who are ready to make a difference.
