NBA player Jason Thompson, "Rebel Girls" editor/author Lilly Workneh, "Black Panther" book author Jesse J. Holland and New Orleans Saint Malcolm Jenkins, are among several celebrity guest readers that narrated their favorite children's stories for a virtual online library created by Amerigroup New Jersey. Amerigroup sponsored the online library initiative in connection with Read Across America. The company also donated free books to classrooms in selected schools across New Jersey, reaching approximately 15,000 students. A selection of these read books has also been donated to participating schools across the state.

The video library will also be open for the public to access for March.
