The San Bernardino County Library is pleased to announce that ABCmouse Early Learning Academy is now available to use at home with a San Bernardino County Library card. This change will promote early literacy and instill a love of reading among children between the ages of two and eight.

Previously, patrons could only access the platform within the confines of the County Library network. Parents can now unlock their child’s learning potential and dive into the complete ABCmouse curriculum, which features over 850 exciting lessons across 10 levels. 

“We are thrilled to offer this service to our patrons, providing an amazing opportunity for our young readers,” said County Librarian Melanie Orosco. “In order to achieve our Countywide Vision, we need to ensure our children are meeting their grade level requirements, particularly with reading.”

San Bernardino County residents are invited to register for a library card at any of the 32 branch libraries to gain access to online databases and digital content from home. Parents and caregivers can monitor their child’s progress in the parent area within the app. There are no ads or pop-up advertisements to distract children away from the curriculum.

In support of the Vision2Read literacy campaign as well as San Bernardino County’s Opportunity Campaign, this program aims to improve literacy rates among children between the ages of 2 and 8 by inspiring an excitement to read, providing achievement goals and encouraging a reading routine.

The San Bernardino County Library system is a dynamic network of 32 branch libraries that serves a diverse population over a vast geographic area. The County Library system strives to provide equal access to information, technology, programs and services for all people who call San Bernardino County home.

The County Library plays a key role in the achievement of the Countywide Vision by contributing to the educational, cultural and historical development of our county community.
