Which program aims to involve parents in library activities?

• A. Parent Engagement Programs
• B. Outreach Initiatives
• C. Literacy Celebrations
• D. Information Literacy Skills

Answer: (A)

This question focuses on creating opportunities for families to participate directly in library life. Programs that aim to involve parents in library activities are called Parent Engagement Programs. They are built around inviting parents to take part in library events, volunteer opportunities, reading or literacy activities, and collaborative planning with librarians and teachers. The goal is to strengthen the home–library connection and support Children's learning by having families actively engaged. Outreach initiatives, while valuable, target a broader community beyond just parents and families. Literacy celebrations are events that honor reading and literacy, but they don’t inherently establish ongoing parent involvement in library activities. Information literacy skills focus on teaching students how to locate, evaluate, and use information, not on engaging parents in library programs.
