The Lake County Library System began a county wide Adult Literacy Program Fall, 2000. The program is made possible by a Florida Library Literacy Grant awarded by The Florida Department of State. Each member and branch library has a regularly scheduled, ongoing program which provides tutoring for adults in a sensitive environment. A model literacy lab is located in the Citrus Ridge County Library to implement new technologies using literacy software to assist tutors. The adult literacy project is designed to serve illiterate and functionally illiterate adults and adults who need tutoring in English as a second language.
Literacy is the foundation of success.
Volunteer opportunites are available. The Lake County Library System is committed to this project, an initiative that addresses a real problem in our community. Page last updated May 2, 2001. Copyright and contact information is available.
