In Botswana, it is common to hear the lament that there is no culture of reading. We aim to contribute to the development of more specific understanding of a culture of reading by reporting on information gathered from teachers who attended workshops we offered titled "Teachers as Readers AND Readers as Teachers: Creating Young Readers and Writers." Eighty-six teachers answered questions about their reading habits, attitudes, and perceptions of students' reading. We learned that teachers differed with regard to what they read and how often they choose reading over other activities. We propose what culture of reading was found among the teachers and what needs to be done to learn more about reading in Botswana. (Contains 4 figures and 3 tables.)
