Early literacy is what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read or write. The period between birth and five years old is the time to lay the foundation for future success in school. St. Louis County Library is committed to promoting early literacy within the community.

We offer a variety of kits, field trips, on-site tours and even homeschool resources available by educational level.
