High-Quality, Low-Cost Resources and Products to Promote Reading
iREAD State Partners
iREAD, developed by the Illinois Library Association, is used by thousands of libraries nationwide, including many that participate through statewide partnerships. While your library does not need to be part of a statewide program to use iREAD, if you're located in one of the participating states listed below, we encourage you to visit your state's dedicated summer reading page or contact your state coordinator for specific participation details. (Coordinator contact information is usually available on the state’s page.)
If you have any further questions or you are a representative of a state interested in a state partnership, feel free to email us at iREAD@ila.org.
