Everybody Reads 2026 is a community-wide reading initiative with a simple mission.

To read as many books as possible while supporting literacy for all.

This program partners with REACH Literacy, a non-profit organization that helps people learn how to read and provides discounted books to the community. By collectively reading more than 500,000 books, participants will raise $1,700 to support REACH Literacy’s ongoing work teaching people to read. Readers will track the number of books read each day using a dashboard provided by Siouxland Libraries.

Participating organizations include the Sioux Falls School District, Siouxland Libraries, Augustana Mikkelsen Library, the University of Sioux Falls Norman B. Mears Library, Tri Valley School District, and Our Savior’s Lutheran Church Community Library.

Proving that when librarians unite, literacy wins!
