Early language and literacy
Early literacy project
The State Library of NSW partnered with the Institute of Early Childhood, Macquarie University on a project to support public libraries in NSW to be recognised for the early literacy services offered. The project included a literature review, survey of public library staff and observation of early literacy programs. The early literacy framework and toolkit were developed in 2018 to help public library staff deliver programs that optimise early literacy and learning.
