The Lending Library allows families to borrow resources that conveniently promote literacy skills at home.  NEEC has acquired some children’s books through the Scholastics book fair, parent books through NAEYC and other educational institutions, program and community pamphlets and resources.  Also available is Missouri’s Pre-K Standards and First Steps Parent Handbook. Our goal is to increase the diversity of the library by obtaining a grant to fund educational activities such as games and materials that can be utilized at home and to purchase future items to keep it current.
