Abstract
Reading has become endangered specie in Nigeria consequent upon the preference for the newer media of communication over the printed book by most people. However, the presence of these newer media does not vitiate the usefulness of the book as a veritable source of education, information and entertainment. Reading must therefore be sustained, but this is a function of a sound reading habit acquired in early life. The children’s library must pursue readership promotion vigorously in order to assist children achieve this desirable reading habit. The activities of the children’s library constitute the traditional means of readership promotion; however, innovative approaches can be explored.
