2002 The Reading Agency formed

Well Worth Reading, Launchpad and The Reading Partnership merged into one organisation The Reading Agency, under the directorship of Miranda McKearney. The Reading Agency is funded by the Arts Council, CILIP (The Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals) and Arts Council England South East.   Everyone in the reader development field welcomed this move.  For the Reading Agency's programme of activity see www.readingagency.org.uk
