Literacy awareness strongly supports success in dealing with various problems.

This study aims to evaluate the BUCANTIK (Budayakeun Maca Sanajan Saeutik) program at the Community Reading Garden (TBM) program of Tanjung Gumulung Family Planning (KB) Village. This qualitative research method uses an online interview with the BUCANTIK program manager and Tanjung Gumulung KB Village community. The research subjects include program managers and community visitors to the BUCANTIK program in Tanjung Gumulung KB Village, totalling five informants. The results of the research were obtained using the CIPP evaluation model (context, input, process, product), namely context evaluation, regarding the BUCANTIK program manager and the low literacy interest of the Tanjung Gumulung KB Village community. Input evaluation regarding program resources in the availability of books at TBM BUCANTIK. Process evaluation regarding program implementation methods and strategies.
