This is a picture book sharing activity that has been carried out in Weihai Library for nearly 8 years - Cong Cong Story Collection, twice a week, one for preschool children aged 0-3 and one for kindergarten and primary school students. Because today is World Book Day, the library has deliberately increased the number of sessions, but it is still full.
Mr. Zhou, a parent, said that in the process of teaching her, the content of the picture book is systematic, logical, and beneficial to the child's educational effect.
Ms. Sun, a parent, said that she wanted him to have this kind of reading atmosphere since he was a child, and he would have the habit of reading in the future. Enjoyed reading about this thing. [Reading] opens your mind a little bit and feels especially good for all aspects.
Hou Yanyan is a picture book teacher at Congcong Story Collection and also a reading promotion ambassador in Weihai, and she has been promoting parent-child reading since 2019, and she found that picture book reading in Weihai has been fully popularized.
Hou Yanyan of Yunshang Children's Center said that many people now pay more attention to reading, especially Weihai has now opened so many urban study rooms, and the library is also built so well, everyone loves this thing, and the children who first came here are more than 2 and a half years old, and they will slowly find that 10-month-old children, one-year-old children, parents will also bring them to learn, and they will find that children will like to read more and more.
In recent years, the city has spared no effort in promoting the construction of scholarly Weihai. From the opening of the night study room and the adjustment of the opening hours from half past eight to 10 o'clock, to the establishment of Weihai people's own night school, to the introduction of the "Gathering Wednesday Reading Salon", the scholarly Weihai is lighting up the spiritual life of Weihai citizens at night.
A set of reading big data from Weihai Library in 2023 shows that the library, including the City Library, borrowed more than 1.5 million books last year, the largest number since the establishment of the library.
Shi Chunqiu, assistant director of Weihai Municipal Library, said that a new record has been created, and the number of people we have received has reached more than 1.6 million. In terms of age composition, female friends are far ahead, accounting for more than 60%, and in terms of the proportion of age groups, post-10 children and post-80s young and middle-aged people have become the two main forces, far ahead in proportion. There are some reading brands all year round, such as the People's Classroom, Congcong Story Collection and the public welfare training courses of Nishan Academy, which have also formed their own fans (groups) of each brand.
The most important thing is that the fragrance of books can go far. From strengthening the supply of high-quality content to ensure that "there are books to read", to consolidating the hardware foundation, using technological advantages to ensure "reading good books" anytime, anywhere, to carrying out a variety of reading activities to guide "love reading". Weihai conveys the fragrance of books and inherits civilization in reading.
