| It's a scheme - now in its second year - to distribute books to people who otherwise have little access to them. Each "giver" signs up to give out one particular title - of 25 I think. Last year we each had 48 to distribute so I assume it's the same this year. The organisers print special editions for distribution. Each book has an identifier and all teh recvipient has to do is say they will read the book. Th eorganisers hope they will be passed on or exchanged but I dont think there was nay evidence of this happening last year. There's a website and a facebook page - both World Book Night - if you want further information. Oh and its on April 23rd - Shakespeare's birthday. |
