Sparking joyful experiences that deepen connections to books and reading. Joyful reading, by design.

Book Trust increases book access for students to promote engaged reading. For more than 20 years, the national nonprofit has partnered with schools and districts across the US to create opportunities for student book choice and ownership, and support teachers as they facilitate joyful reading experiences. We offer schools developmentally and culturally relevant print book options for Pre-K through Grade 5 students at a fraction of the cost to schools—and at no cost to students or their families—through a collaboration with the world’s largest publisher and distributor of children’s books.

This year at Books on Tap, we will honor Tommi Sue Cox with the inaugural Page Turner Award! We hope you’ll join us in celebrating her dedication to the Northern Colorado community: https://donate.booktrust.org/event/books-on-tap-2026/e790945
