This reading initiative is brought to you by the Schenectady City School District and community partners.
About UsThe #schenectadyreads initiative is designed to promote, provide access, and celebrate reading! We work to provide SCSD students with access to diverse, trending, and brand new reading material throughout the year and during the summer months.
The Bookmobile is one way that we promote and celebrate reading. It usually stops at a variety of community events, parks, and meal sites. At our stops we construct a mini-library and the Bookmobile opens for business. This year will look a little different due to COVID-19 and NYS social distancing rules, but we will continue to provide access to our collection digitally while we work on solutions for print materials. With this summer reading initiative, students will be engaged throughout the summer with reading "pop-up book clubs" within the community and digitally. In addition, this initiative will expose students to culturally relevant and high interest titles using specific selection criteria that will be quick to engage any reader. Goals:
