TUCSON, Ariz. — KGUN 9 and our parent company E.W. Scripps believe reading is the foundation for success for young people.

This nonprofit, along with its 250 volunteers, supports the nearly 30 libraries located throughout Pima County."I do remember when people were talking about, 'books are going to go away'," Murano tells me."But heavens no." The funds raised from the book sale go toward supporting programs at all the county's libraries—28 libraries, altogether.

One of the most important of those outreach programs is the Pima County Library's summer reading program.
