The book fair in Kolašin, traditionally organized by the National Library on the occasion of World Book Day, will last until the end of April, the Culture Center announced.
They remind that, every day, from 15:XNUMX a.m. to XNUMX:XNUMX p.m., in the hall of the Center, the people of Kolasin will have the opportunity to buy the latest editions and best-selling titles of the Narodne knjiga publishing house. For the first time, this year, cooperation was also realized with the Library for the Blind of Montenegro, so books in Braille as well as publications in audio format were exhibited at the fair.
"We are extremely pleased with the interest, especially from the youngest readers. We are pleased with the number of children's books sold. The opening was attended by students from a class of the seventh grade of Risto Manojlović Primary School. "All students who have A's in their mother tongue received one title as a gift, of their choice," says the Center.
Librarian Gorica Ilinčić explains that by organizing the Fair, Kolašin joins the "wide network of April events dedicated to books" every year.
According to her, the visit to the Fair and similar events shows that "the book in its basic printed form has a future, that it lasts, that it has not given way to modern technologies and new sources of information". Ilinčić claims that the data that the sale of printed books has been on the rise in recent years is encouraging.
