    abstract = {In this qualitative research, I aimed at describing the approach of multiculturalism can provide traction
to the process of building a culture of reading literacy, understanding of Indonesian language (Bahasa) teachers
on the culture of reading literacy and multiculturalism approach and techniques used by teachers to build a
culture of reading literacy through the multiculturalism approach in Grade VII of State Secondary School 5
Padang Panjang. From the interviews conducted to the Indonesian language teachers of the Grade VII of the
school, it can be concluded that, first as the Indonesian language teachers in any school at any levels ranging
from elementary school to high school and even higher education should support and assist to promote the
culture of reading literacy to become an important thing to do. Second, building a culture of reading literacy in
schools should be able to give a positive value for students and educators. Third, globally the development
of reading literacy culture only thrives in big cities like Jakarta. Fourth, the school’s response to the literacy
movement is quite good but the materials outside textbooks in the school library are still lacking and
inadequate. Fifth, there is a relationship between reading literacy culture and multiculturalism approach.}
