WORLDREADER ORG

The increasing ubiquity and diminishing costs of digital technology enable us to work in an efficient and economical way. E-readers that cost over $300 when we started now cost less than $50, and digital books cost as little as pennies. On average it costs just $16 to put an entire library of hundreds of books into the hands of a new reader and to get them reading. And thanks to Moore's Law and economies of scale, these costs will only continue to fall. Through our efforts and our partnerships with device manufacturers, mobile operators, teachers, governments, and the communities where we work, Worldreader is working towards a world in which every child and her family have the books they need to improve their lives, the practice of reading is commonplace, and where illiteracy is a thing of the past.
