The Literacy Bell and its clear, distinct sound is a symbol for something very special; that magical moment when a child can make the letters on a page become a word, then a sentence, and finally a story. When that bell chimes, all in town will know that a child has read his or her first book!
Pictures of Literacy Bell program participants are on display in the library children's wing.
