Resources for Reading will close in the next few months. We are discontinuing all products, including the
unique sole-source items which have been available only from Resources for Reading and
can not be found anywhere else. Some items are already sold out, and the rest are going fast.
We encourage you to order online rather than with a purchase order,
because the delay in getting a purchase order to us means that online orders get “first dibs”.

School Purchase Orders Welcome!

We are still accepting school district purchase orders for all in-stock items.
Submit your order now before we run out. All items are sold first-come, first-served.

Thank you!

Thank you so much for your support and your business over the past 25 years! It's been our privilege to meet with you at conferences, to help over phone or email, to develop new products to meet your specialized needs, and to do what we can to supply your classroom with the unique materials that YOU KNOW work well to help children learn to read.

You’ve heard us say it many times: If you can't read, nothing else really matters. THIS IS WHY you teach reading and early literacy. THIS IS WHY we provide the materials you need to do what you do.

Many thanks for your support, and for everything you do to help educate children. Keep up the good work!

Our children are our future; they just don’t know it yet.

Local Opportunities for Outrageous Deals!

Local teachers in the San Francisco Bay Area: we will be holding “Open Houses” by appointment so you can come into our warehouse and pick up some very special savings on our remaining items. Please email us at to schedule an appointment. We can’t just let everyone in all at once because it would be too dangerous in the warehouse! We also have some items that we would like to donate to our local school districts; please tell your Reading Coordinator or District Office Buyer to contact us for bulk specials and donations of certain classroom items including easels.
