The Reading Forecaster newsletter, which was published until 2013, was a treat for all Portland Reading Council members. The digital issues archived here are filled with resources, informative articles, book reviews, teaching ideas, information on upcoming council events, and more. In 2014, PCIRA began publishing “Literacy Bytes”, a monthly digest featuring short articles, council information and links to resources.
