Ann Arbor District Library

The Ann Arbor District Library and the University of Michigan’s Exhibit Museum of Natural History propose to link, enrich, and expand two separate programs into a new program, The World Around Us: A Five-Year Family Reading and Informal Science Learning Collaboration. The program will encourage family members to develop and sustain an interest in life-long learning at both the museum and the library. The project will establish and consolidate the Library-Museum partnership, pilot the program components, and will prepare for future expansion of the program for countywide libraries.
