About

The mission of the Library and Literacy Foundation for San Joaquin County is to support programs in our communities that foster literacy and promote the power of reading to enrich lives.

The Library and Literacy Foundation for San Joaquin County was incorporated in 1990 as a non-profit, tax-exempt organization in response to the specific need to fully fund the Stockton-San Joaquin County Public Library's Adult Literacy program. The Foundation has since expanded to support family and community literacy programs and assist with sustaining the Library's book budget.
