2020 Read-In Canceled

Children Participating in Read In

Each year we celebrate reading and welcome more than 2,000 students to downtown Columbia for the Read-In. We are proud sponsors of the event along with the South Carolina Association of School Librarians. Our team is closely monitoring the outbreak of the coronavirus COVID-19 and its impact on public health. We have a responsibility to protect students, staff, and caregivers. For this reason, we decided to cancel the Read In on April 2. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
