Book Day in Jaén

Dear family of the Rural Libraries Network of Cajamarca. 

At the “Sagrado Corazón” School in Jaén, we also celebrated Book Day. 

We organised an activity where the pupils visited the two places with books: the Reading Promotion Room and the Library.

We’ve had a lovely experience all week. And most importantly: our students have enjoyed reading. Taking them to a different space, where they can read more freely and choose what they want, helped a great deal. They were delighted with the books, and some of the young people have returned at another time to finish reading their favourite book.

The Rural Libraries Network was present throughout with its books: beautiful and meaningful, full of tradition, identity and wisdom.

This message came to us from the “Sagrado Corazón” School in Jaén, where one of the Network’s first Rural Libraries in Schools (BRIE) was established.

Thank you, Ms Elizabeth and the school community, for sharing this wonderful initiative with us.
