Make It Matter Day Oct. 3, 2009

The American Library Association (ALA) has signed on as a sponsor of Make It Matter Day, an effort to encourage Americans to participate in literacy and education activities, organized by Readers Digest. Make It Matter Day will be held Oct. 3, 2009.

“The ALA supports Reader’s Digest in its commitment to literacy and education, which matter to the librarians who help foster the literacy skills Americans need to participate fully in a global information society,” said ALA President Camila Alire.

Earlier this year, the editors at Reader’s Digest asked readers to identify a cause that mattered most to them. The winner was literacy and education.
