Welcome to
Read in 2 Languages!
The first bilingual e-book platform for schools
Access books
CALEC is currently developing Read in 2 Languages, an online book platform with books available in multiple languages. We want to encourage multilingualism by providing access to our books for schools and communities interested in literacy, language, and bilingual education. One proven way to increase both bilingualism and biliteracy rates across schools and communities is through an increase in access to multilingual books.
By making our educational resources available on our digital book platform, CALEC will help to provide crucial learning tools for those who are unable to read or interpret the books. We will do this by providing access for free to underserved schools and communities in particular, with resources focused on language and bilingual education. Other schools will be able to join the platform for a set license fee. We are currently beta testing our platform with selected schools in the Ivory Coast, Senegal, France, and the United States. Funding permits, our hope is to include more schools from around the world and create a multilingual community of readers.
