Focusing on the cooperative role of parents and public libraries in stimulating reading interests in children of all ages, this booklet addresses the following issues: (1) getting children interested in reading (reading aloud to children; encouraging children to read to you; starting a home library; showing children that you enjoy reading; choosing books that you both like; looking for award-winning books; asking for help at the local library); (2) children visiting the library with parents or alone (including children, even toddlers, in weekly trips to the library; helping children get their own library cards; encouraging children to ask the librarian for help; setting rules and guidelines for children when they visit the library alone); and (3) library services (for preschool children including infants, toddlers 18-36 months old and children 3-5 years; school age children, especially ages 7-9 years; teenagers; and special children, the gifted and the handicapped). A postscript briefly discusses adult services and a listing of sources for additional information is provided. (CGD)
