Enjoying Reading is a project funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families DCSF which aims to promote the love of reading in school. It encourages schools and libraries to work more closely together. It helps schools understand how public libraries and schools library services work together to encourage children to read.

Jim Knight MP, Minister of State for Schools and Learners, said: "Children's enjoyment of reading is critical to their life chances but schools alone can't crack this. The Department for Children, Schools and Families believes more joined up working between schools and libraries can make a big difference and is funding the Enjoying Reading initiative to provide inspiration, ideas and practical support. The National Year of Reading is the perfect time to start to strengthen this alliance."
