Hayward Public Library, Literacy Plus

Literacy Plus, a free service of the Hayward Public Library, provides literacy services to English-speaking adults and their families in the Hayward area. We are committed to providing the highest quality volunteer-based literacy services, and have been a part of the Hayward Public Library since 1985. The early program focused on adults with low literacy skills, but other services for children and families of adult learners have been added, as tutors and staff became available and as other literacy needs have been assessed. We currently operate several different programs, including one-on-one adult tutoring, English Conversation Circles, Families for Literacy, and various children's story times out in the community.

Our next free Tutor Orientation for volunteer tutors in the adult program will be held in early 2019, once our new Public Library opens. Registration is required. For information and an application, please call us at (510) 881-7912 or email us at literacyplus@hayward-ca.gov.
