Family literacy is a part of reading literacy, which involves intergenerational reading in all areas of activity and in all areas of a child%s development.

This thesis researches family literacy. The purpose of this master's thesis is to determine how familiar the parents of preschool children are with family literacy and which family literacy activities are being carried out by general libraries in the Dolenjska region. To research the situation regarding family literacy, both surveys used the questionnaire method. The sample is made up of 60 parents of preschool children attending the Mokronožci kindergarten and of 8 general libraries in the Dolenjska region.

Almost all libraries in the Dolenjska region are engaged in family literacy activities.
