Walking into the school, the smell of books comes to your face. Between the corridors, ancient poems are placed on both sides of the walls; on the beams, you can remove the hanging magazines with a raised hand; the green bookcases at the corners of each corridor and the edge of the classroom window are full of books, and the entire campus is surrounded by a sea of books, and every inch of space touched by the eyes is a landscape of books.
Since last year, Yangcheng County has vigorously grasped the construction of reading brands, and in accordance with the theme of January and the requirements of continuous line throughout the year, it has carried out activities such as the collection of bookmarks for the theme of "Shuxiangyangcheng", the donation of books for "Showing Hometown Feelings and Jointly Building Xiangyang City of Books", the typical recitation of "White, Blue, red and elegant praise", and the "Most Beautiful Storyteller in Shuxiang Runyangcheng" competition, which has set off a new upsurge of reading together by the whole people.

If the urban study room and the farmhouse bookstore are reading spaces under the common areas. Then, the "book family" is a more frequent, more direct, and more extensive place to read.
Yangcheng County vigorously advocates and promotes the construction of "book-fragrant families", starting from the smallest unit of society, leading the way by typical examples, and driving by demonstration, so that every family can form a strong reading atmosphere.
"There is a book of poetry in the belly, and its character is self-exalted; there is a book of poetry in the belly, and its virtue is humble; there is a book of poetry in the belly, and its body is self-righteous." People who read books are fresh and extraordinary, behave steadily and dignifiedly, think actively and deeply, confident but not conceited. This is the goal pursued by the 73-year-old Yan Qingquan family of five. Walking into this book, you can often see everyone holding a favorite book, or sitting silently reading, or talking to each other. Reading has become a common habit and has permeated the blood of every family member.

In the view of Niu Chen, deputy secretary of the Yangcheng County Party Committee and county magistrate, the construction of "Book Fragrant Yangcheng" is of great significance to creating a reading atmosphere for the whole people and improving the cultural taste of the city. In this regard, he asked all relevant units, enterprises, and social groups to make overall considerations, make detailed plans, accurately lay out, reasonably allocate reading positions, find out the positioning of service objects of various reading platforms, meet the diversified and multi-level cultural needs of readers, create more platforms for reading and exchange, mobilize and guide the masses to invest in the construction of "Shuxiangyang City", and make the city full of books.

Not only that, government agencies, schools, communities, and enterprises have also set off a reading boom, and relying on their respective resource advantages and cultural advantages, they have opened up and built various forms of reading spaces such as book bars, study rooms, and reading corners.
The concept of reading has gradually entered the hearts of the people, the atmosphere of books has become increasingly strong, and reading for the whole people has become a common practice. From the city to the countryside, from the society to the classroom, from online to offline, it has become a cultural feast for the reading of the whole people in the city of Xiangyang.
"Cultural Granary" Serves the Masses Grassroots Readers Share the Fragrance of Books
The sound of books is well-written and the atmosphere is full of suburban ruins. Reading should not be limited to the city. The construction of the "Book Fragrant Yang City" cannot only overflow in the city. In recent years, the "cultural granaries" for fathers and fellow villagers have gradually built up in Yangcheng and blossomed everywhere, becoming a warm "Book Xiangyang City" scenery.
If it is said that in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city, building a city study room to meet the reading needs of citizens is the "first move" of building a "book-fragrant Yang City", then in the countryside where cooking smoke is everywhere, building a high-quality rural bookstore and lighting up the hope of the people with knowledge is the "big move" of "Book-Fragrant Yang City".
In 2019 alone, Yangcheng County built 17 township branches and 335 village-level mobile points, basically achieving full coverage of rural bookstores in conditional administrative villages. At the same time, the implementation of the library general management system, county and township libraries, rural bookstores to achieve three-level book "through the loan and return" card service, any reading point can be returned to the previous reading point and library borrowed books, greatly facilitating the masses.
Yangcheng County also took advantage of the trend to launch the "Shuxiang Yangcheng Grassroots Line 10 Million" activity, in the county's rural areas to build 10 rural cultural memory museums, carry out 10 literary and artistic going to the countryside, build 100 standardized rural bookstores, build 100 cultural corridors, and continue to promote the construction of "Shuxiang Yangcheng" to the grassroots, forming a vivid situation of linkage between the upper and lower levels, grasping and managing together.
Driving Ridge Township has built four functional areas of farming culture, red culture, traditional culture, and intangible cultural heritage to create a book town; Qinchi Town regularly holds warm Qinchi story meetings to talk about the people around the masses, talk about the things around the masses, show the image of Qinchi, and transmit warm power; Sitou Township relies on sericulture culture to hold cultural activities, collect poetry works, and display the quality of characteristic books; Yanli, Xihe and other townships integrate reading into civilized practice activities, and a number of reading promotion institutions and rural reading role models like the Taixingjia Fenggeng Reading Hall have emerged; Beiliu , Ciying, Baisang, Gulong and other townships actively carried out lectures, reading sharing meetings, the construction of standardized rural bookstores, the creation of cultural corridors, etc., to further create a strong atmosphere of book fragrance. At the same time, Yangcheng County has also emerged a number of non-governmental reading organizations such as the Dream Road Reading Club, The Haoze Academy, the Jinkou Yuyan, the Big Fish Lecture Hall, and the Fan Deng Reading Club, and regularly organizes reading activities such as reading salons, which greatly enriches the connotation of the book Xiangyang City.
In the corner of Fengxi Cultural and Sports Square in Xihe Township, Yangcheng County, a novel and chic "Xicheng Book Club" makes people feel the fragrance of books coming from their faces. Xihe Township has improved and innovated the function of the rural bookstore, and built this intelligent bookstore by using digital and intelligent means, making it a "charging station" for the masses to obtain knowledge, understand information, and enrich cultural life. Here, just apply for registration, click the "Borrow" button of the "Smart Borrowing and Returning" interface of the bookstore, and then scan the code to bind the mobile phone, you can self-borrow 24 hours a day. When night falls, the bookstore is lit.
Since the opening of various study rooms and bookstores, they have been carefully managed, warmly served, and a variety of books have met the growing spiritual and cultural needs of the masses. Not only that, various activities such as public lectures, reading salons, and reading exchanges were staged in the bookstore, and a series of activities such as "Sharing Reading Experiences" and "World Book Day" were successively carried out, opening up the last mile of the book fragrance to benefit the people, and building a new position for grass-roots propaganda, ideology, and culture.
Through the construction of "Shuxiangyang City", today, reading leads the cultural fashion here, and the fragrance of books sprinkles all over the yangcheng land, precipitating the cultural background here and nourishing the spiritual foundation of every Yangcheng person.
As Yao Xun said, it is necessary to let the fragrance of books fill the upper and lower levels of urban and rural areas, corners and corners, and let reading become the conscious action of cadres and the masses, so as to further improve the cultural quality of the whole people, enhance the soft power of culture, and promote the high-quality and high-speed transformation and development of Yangcheng.
