Teen Read Week - October 7-13, 2018
A national literacy initiative of the Young Adult Library
Services Association that is aimed at teens, their
parents, librarians, educators, booksellers and other
concerned adults. Teen Read Week was started in
1998. The continuing message of the Teen Read
Week initiative is to encourage 12-18 year olds to
"Read For The Fun Of It". Each year an annual
theme allows YALSA to focus on timely topics and
teen interests. Teen Read Week is celebrated the
same week as Columbus Day every year.
Contact ALA's Young Adult Library
Services Association
(YALSA, a division of ALA) with questions.
