Literacy Services
Our mission is to assist individuals with reading and writing improvement and to teach adults and families to utilize the public library as a resource for lifelong learning.
The County of Los Angeles Public Library offers free adult and family literacy instruction at Literacy Centers & Community Libraries convenient to tutors and learners. The program became part of the California Literacy Campaign in 1984 through an initiative of the California State Library. Since 1984, the Library has expanded literacy services to meet the needs of adults and families wanting to improve their reading and writing skills.
