WotC New Education Program

[DaveStebbins]

Just a quick note.

At GenCon, one of the seminars (Teaching D&D, a very good seminar) briefly talked about a library program Wizards of the Coast is sponsoring. Bill Slavicsek and Dave Noonan said that information would be on the WotC website. I mentioned it to a couple of the librarians I knew at GenCon and they expressed interest in learning more. I finally remembered to look it up and found the page below. It looks like it is a pretty new program, but it sounds like a great start. It's called Adventures for Reluctant Readers and is aimed at Educators and Librarians. I'm sure parents could point school and library officials towards the program also.

Sounds like some people are definitely interested in this...

Yep, when I saw that the program started last month, I knew I wouldn't be the first to start a thread about it, but I promised a couple of people to find the link...

Oh well, the more the merrier.

This isn't WotC's first foray into libraries. I do remember they had some sort of program not too long after 3E was released where they'd arrange for libraries to get copies of the core D&D books (and maybe a couple of others).
