Respect individual needs and stimulate the internal drive to read
It is reported that during the 2024 World Book Day and National Public Library Service Publicity Week, the Provincial Zhongshan Library will lead young readers to get close to the library and stimulate the internal drive of reading around the themes of individual reading needs, special children, and local culture. Among them, 49 libraries in the province have been linked to carry out the "step-by-step" children's graded reading service, focusing on solving the problem of book selection, providing scientific graded reading guidance for children and parents, and promoting the rise of children's reading level; The "Reading Zero Distance" project will send high-quality collections, activity resources and children's exhibitions to hospitals and campuses to accurately serve different groups.
The "Reading Zero Distance" activity will bring high-quality children's exhibition resources to the campus.
Combined with intelligent technology, shared quality reading
The special children's activities held by the Provincial Zhongshan Library take into account multiple dimensions such as virtual and reality, online and offline, inside and outside the library, and open a window to the world for primary and secondary school students. Activities such as "Yuanyue Tradition" and "Yuanyou Classic" introduce elements that are popular with the "Internet generation" such as VR metaverse and scripted entertainment, and explore the reading mode of "traditional culture + virtual reality technology" and "classic reading + social reasoning". Strolling through the children's department of the antique Provincial Zhongshan Library, children can trace the "imprints" of books, get to know "friends of intangible cultural heritage plants", enjoy scientific experiments and handheld stories, enjoy Cantonese reading sessions and play in the library...... Wonderful children's activities are presented to minor readers in a novel and interesting way, providing more possibilities for the library's public cultural services.
The "Yuan Reading Traditions" activity guides young readers to explore traditional culture in the metaverse.
The "Book Imprint" activity leaves a good reading memory for the readers who visit the library.
In 2024, the series of children's special activities of the World Book Day and National Library Service Publicity Week of the Zhongshan Library of Guangdong Province will closely follow the themes of "Reading Changes the Future" and "Building a People-centered Modern Library", emphasizing children's sense of participation and acquisition in reading. In a personalized, interactive and convenient reading experience, we will guide and cultivate citizens of the new era who love to read, are good at reading, and are good at reading.
