Asuka-san, this is a beautiful essay. I agree with you. Reading makes us more sensitive, and more human.
* I'm not sure this is exactly what you wanted to say, but "literacy" is the skill of being able to read. I thought "the existence of letters in our society" was not clear, but later, you describe the importance of literacy. When you wrote "letters" it is not clear at first whether you mean 手紙 or かな? ("Letters" has both meanings in English. It's interesting, I think that communicating through 手紙 is an art that is becoming forgotten).
** Because you are talking about books (plural), I used the pronoun "them" throughout this sentence.
*** "information" can be plural or singular, so you don't need to add "s" to it.
