Libraries, books and overcoming the effect of poverty



Published in the New York Times, September 20, 2018
To the Editor:
Re “Why libraries still matter.” [https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/08/opinion/sunday/civil-society-library.html (Sunday Review, Sept. 90]
Not mentioned in Eric Klinenberg’s essay is the importance of libraries and books to school success. 
Studies consistently show that children of poverty typically have low levels of literacy development. But research also shows that children of poverty have little access to books at home, in their neighborhoods and at school, and that increasing access to books and other reading material results in more reading. 
Increasing reading increases vocabulary, increases the ability to read and write, and results in better grammar and better spelling.
The library is a major source of reading material for many children of poverty.
Our research, as well as the work of Keith Curry Lance, confirms that more investment in libraries and librarians means better language and literacy development, and that supporting libraries can help overcome the negative effect of poverty on literacy development and school success.

  5. As claimed by Stanford Medical, It is in fact the SINGLE reason women in this country get to live 10 years longer and weigh 42 lbs less than we do.

    (And realistically, it is not related to genetics or some secret exercise and really, EVERYTHING around "how" they eat.)

    BTW, What I said is "HOW", not "WHAT"...

    TAP this link to see if this short test can help you find out your real weight loss possibility

  6. Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Afrid Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
    Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic diseases. Hiv_ Aids,Herpes,Inflammatory bowel disease ,Copd,Diabetes,Hepatitis,I read about him online how he cure Tasha and Tara so i contacted him on drafridherbalhome@gmail.com even talked on whatsapps +2349057260738 believe me it was easy i drank his herbal medicine for two weeks and i was cured just like that isn't Dr Afrid a wonder man?

  14. I'm Marian Loiuse from New York, United State, I had financial challenges during the pandemic crisis, was trying to read something online when I come across a trading forex broker site that seems very interested, I contacted them and they responded so fast so I decided to trade with the broker hoping to earn a lot of profit at the end, I started with my $3,500 US Dollar's savings and ended up paying $187,690 US dollars. All my savings and property funds were gone and more payment was needed from me until I realized it was nothing but a scam, my life was drained out of me and I was helpless at this point in time, had so much depth and pressure on me, so luckily my friend was in a mutual relationship to a very popular world hacker who then directed me to ''Wizard William Mitnick  Quick Recovery AT Programmer DOT Net''.  After reaching out to Wizard William via ''wizardWilliamMitnickquickrecovery (AT) programmer (DOT) net''  he then responded and ask me about my case and then ask me to reach him also on WhatsApp ''+1'' (559) 851/ (5537)  and I did as he instructed me. finally, my funds were recovered back to my ETH wallet within 48 hours, all thanks to Wizard William.  He was the angel that was sent to save me from death.
