Presenter: Pamela Cote, Senior Director of Curriculum and Training, Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy

The Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy and Worldreader partnered to develop ReadLife Bookshelf, a multigenerational digital reading collection for adults, children, families, and educators. The collection includes a variety of high interest texts for adult learners spanning a range of reading levels and a diverse selection of books for families to read together. Each month, a new collection of books is launched with guided activities for each book and an instructor resource guide. The collection is bilingual (English and Spanish) and offers anytime, anywhere access. This interactive presentation is designed for practitioners at all levels of expertise. Participants will learn about this resource and how it can provide impactful reading and engagement time for adult learners and families. Time will be given to explore the resource, share ideas, and plan how to best utilize it in programming.
