November 7, 2011

Oceanside READS, the adult literacy program of the Oceanside Public Library, recently held an open house at its learning center, 321 North Nevada Street, as a way to increase awareness of its services throughout the community.  Established in 1997, READS provides free, one-on-one instruction to English-speaking adults with low literacy skills.  The open house was organized by a team composed of volunteer tutors and was well attended by City officials, tutors, students, and representatives of area agencies.  Pictured are tutors Ana Jones, Mary Lou Elliott, Alma Sisco-Smith, and Jan Weits, who comprised the planning committee for the event.  For program information, call 760-435-5680.
