Librarian Enma Rosario Moncada, San Antonio Community Library “We had a 9-year-old boy, repeating first grade and always distracted. He had not learned how to read yet. With the help of an educational CD focused on reading, I started bringing him to the library in the afternoons and assigning him a computer all to himself. In three weeks his teacher was astounded when he began to read stories. Now he brings his younger brothers to the library and reads to them.”
Schoolteacher Irma Argentino Suazo, Rancho Grande Library “My motivation in becoming a volunteer was the fact that the library is a place where many people can be helped. I was also interested in promoting child literacy. I feel very satisfied knowing that I played a role in literacy advocacy in my community, and also that this is an axis of change and that I, as one person, am contributing. The library is a wonderful gift.”
