First National Reading Day in Singapore to fall on July 30
FROM bringing specially curated reading materials to offices to transforming an MRT train into a mobile digital library, the National Library Board (NLB) is going all out to get more people to read.
It is starting a National Reading Movement, and will mark Singapore’s first National Reading Day on July 30. It will also conduct a nationwide survey on reading habits to better understand how to promote the activity.
The push comes amid survey results that paint a sobering picture of reading here.
