For Read Across America 2026, the main theme from the National Education Association (NEA) is “Create & Celebrate a Nation of Diverse Readers,” emphasizing seeing oneself in books, while also promoting “Champion Kindness” as a monthly focus for March, coinciding with Read Across America Week (March 2-6, 2026). Stop by a UTSC library and choose a book to read! We have something for everyone!
