What is LEARN?

LEARN is the adult literacy program of the San Diego County Library.  We help adults improve their English literacy skills in order to achieve their full potential as community members, family members, workers, and life-long learners.  Adult learners who participate in our program accomplish their literacy goals by attending one-on-one or small group tutoring, ESL classes, English conversation classes, or citizenship classes.  All tutoring and classroom instruction is provided by volunteer tutors and instructors.  All of LEARN's services are provided free of charge in all 33 branches of the San Diego County Library.

If you need help, know of somebody who needs help, or would like to volunteer, please call 888-466-0668 or click www.sdcl.org/learn.  Change a life!  Help an adult to read and write!
