  Abstract: Keller eReader Initiative is a program of electronic readers that would be made available through the library to be checked out and used throughout the school and at home.  Electronic readers are an excellent way to incorporate technology into education.  Students and teachers are accustomed to many types of electronic devices, and electronic readers are one way to capture student interest and learning into one medium.  These electronic readers would be available for the entire student body and faculty.  It is an excellent tool to motivate many reluctant readers in our student population.
