Libraries are everywhere, rooted in nearly every school, campus and community, but they’re are about to take front and center in a new place: the breakfast table.

The American Library Association (ALA) and Safeway Inc. will roll out the first 2 of 5 Safeway-brand cereal boxes in October with back-panel content about libraries and librarians. The cereal will be available at Safeway’s stores across the U.S.

The first boxes to feature the library-related content are Toasted Oats and Honey Nut Toasted Oats. There will be a staggered launch for the rest of the panels.
