Cornerstones of Science is an
award-winning national science literacy
initiative located in Brunswick, Maine, USA. The mission of Cornerstones of
Science (COS) is to connect children, teens, and adults to
science and technology through superb books, programs, and
opportunities for community involvement in current scientific
issues. To achieve our mission we partner primarily with public libraries.
Here you will find science books and book reviews for all
ages and reading levels. Links are provided to recommended
web sites, teacher resources, science-related scholarships, citizen
science opportunities, and current events in science. Upcoming public
programs by scientists and science authors are listed on our
calendar.
Search our book &
DVD lists by author, topic, title, and grade or reading level.
Send us your comments about the books you read by clicking on
our "submit a book review" link. Children and teens in grades
3-12 may enter our annual Read, Write & Win contest. And, be
sure to check out our science games.
COS
is made possible through the generous and continued support of
COS founder Lee Grodzins, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Maine &
national foundations and businesses, and contributions from individuals
like you.
I
welcome you to this site and wish you well on all your science
adventures.
