| Taylor Swift talks about how reading has inspired her song writing with Z100 radio personality Trey Morgan during Scholastic's "Read Every Day" literacy event at the company's NYC headquarters on Wednesday, October 24, 2012. The event was webcast live into classrooms around the country and the world to encourage students to read every day in order to succeed in school and in life. Swift’s new album Red is out this week.

Singer and songwriter Taylor Swift came by Scholastic headquarters Wednesday to share her love of books and reading with over 1.4 million viewers in a live webcast.
If you missed it, I recommend checking it out to hear Taylor’s thoughts on the books she’s loved, where she gets ideas for what to read next, how reading has influenced her writing and her career, and what kinds of stories inspire her.
This webcast is just one way Scholastic is spreading the message of their global literacy campaign, Read Every Day. Lead a Better Life. They encourage you to visit their website and join the campaign – it’s simple to do – and help a child read every day.
You can read more about the webcast at the On Our Minds blog. For pictures or a link to the video, you can go to our media room.
