Our Mission
We believe the ability to read is critical to personal freedom and the
maintenance of a democratic society.
Did you know that 17% of adults in Tulsa cannot read the prescription on a medicine bottle, understand a newspaper editorial, or enter complete information on an application?
Do you or someone you know need reading help?
The literacy service offers free, confidential tutoring to
adults (16 years or older). Our
students live in Tulsa County and generally read at or below a 5th
grade level. To sign up, call
596-7958 to make an appointment for an assessment
How can you help?
The Library's Adult Literacy Service offers one-on-one tutoring to adults

are people who find that a couple hours a week spent helping someone
learn to read -- helping someone better his or her life -- is time well
spent. Our tutors are people like you.
Of course, it's not easy. Tutoring takes time, patience, planning, patience, flexibility, caring, and patience. Did we mention patience? In addition to possessing these qualities, our tutors must fulfill these more specific requirements:
