Pojok Literasi : Membangun Negeri Melalui Literasi di Kalangan Siswa SDN Cilangkara 02

Education plays a crucial role in developing quality human resources, with one of the key aspects being the enhancement of students' interest in reading and literacy skills. However, fostering a reading culture among elementary school students remains a significant challenge, particularly at SDN Cilangkara 02, and which lacks a proper library. In response, the 2025 Cilangkara Village Community Service Program (KKN) students implemented the "Literacy Corner" initiative, which aimed to provide a simple, comfortable, and accessible reading space. This program adopted a participatory and educational implementative approach, involving teachers, students, the literacy community, and university students. Activities included conducting a needs assessment, collecting book donations, constructing and decorating the literacy corner, organizing the reading space, and holding an inauguration event. The results of the program showed a notable increase in students' interest in reading, as well as the development of a habit of interacting with books. Moreover, it helped cultivate a literacy culture within the school environment. Despite facing challenges such as limited books, inadequate funding, and students' distraction by gadgets, the program succeeded in achieving a positive impact. It not only contributed to improving literacy and character building but also fostered a sustainable reading culture at SDN Cilangkara 02
