Support Family Literacy!

The South Carolina Day by Day Family Literacy Calendar is designed to be a tool that families, caregivers, educators and librarians can use at home and in the classroom to further develop early literacy skills that help young children become prepared for school or do better in school.

The Calendar is a project of the South Carolina State Library, working in partnership with many agencies and organizations, and primarily funded by a Library Services and Technology Act grant from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).

Get Smart about Antibiotics

Just want to put a plug in here for a group I'm working with on a local campaign. They of course are the national campaign.

If you live in South Carolina, all public libraries have at least one copy of a WONDERFUL book that goes along with the campaign: "The Little Elephant with the Big Earache" by Charlotte Cowan. Libraries are doing related progrmaming across the state. It's all good info about how to find information helpful to your family in times of sickness, flu and colds.
