Family Literacy Day
Family Literacy Day, held annually on January 27, was developed by ABC Life Literacy Canada in 1999 to celebrate adults and children reading and learning together, and to encourage Canadians to spend at least 15 minutes enjoying a learning activity as a family every day.
Provincial and Territorial Coalitions across Canada partner with ABC Life Literacy Canada to promote and support local family learning activities.
Literacy NL encourages community organizations schools and libraries to join with us again to celebrate Family Literacy Day®.
We are no longer accepting orders for Family Literacy Day 2012
Materials are still available to download from the ABC Life Literacy Canada website.

Shaping a New Learning Culture: Centre for Literacy Summer Institute

Enduring WLES models have been developed and implemented in specific geographic locations, such as Nova Scotia and Manitoba, in defined job sectors, such as the construction industry in British Columbia, and in organizational milieus, such as hospitals, in the UK. Why have some models endured? Why have they not been directly transferrable to other settings? What lessons can be learned? www.centreforliteracy.qc.ca/sites/default/files/SUM_INSTITUTE_2012.pdf
