Program Description

Event Details

Last week of Spring Sessions!

Registration for the fall semester of Partners in Reading will begin September 2. Visit our registration page to register, beginning September 2.

Every fall and spring semester, we pair college students with grade school students to read together and enjoy the library. The pairs meet once a week for 45 minutes, throughout the semester.

The goal of Partners in Reading is to foster a lifelong love of reading and of the library. While we try really hard to match every child that signs up for the program, we hope you’ll understand that the number of kids matched depends on the number of college students that register – and vice versa! 

Meeting times are flexible! Participants may select any 45 minutes on Mondays through Thursdays from 3:00 through 7:00 pm. 

Please contact Lyndsey Carney, Partners in Reading Coordinator, at lcarney@normalpl.org or 309-454-4668 with any questions.
