Collaborative Summer Library Program
The Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) is a consortium of libraries in 48 states and the District of Columbia working together to develop summer reading programs.
History
The Collaborative Summer Library Program began in 1987 with 10 Minnesota regional libraries. Combined resources and collaboration with a commercial vendor allowed the libraries to provide cheaper, higher-quality resources to promote children and teen reading during the summer. Its current office is in Mason, Iowa.
