1 Million Books to be given away!
Date Added: Fri 7 January 2011
Clays, St Ives Book printing division is proud to announce support for one of the most ambitious publishing initiatives in recent times; World Book Night.
The inaugural World Book Night will take place on Saturday, 5 March 2011, two days after World Book Day.
With the full support of the Publishers Association, the Booksellers Association, the Independent Publishers Guild, the Reading Agency with libraries, World Book Day and the BBC, one million books will be given away by an army of passionate readers to members of the public across the UK and Ireland – and you could be one of them!
All you have to do is apply to be one of the 20,000 people who will receive 50 copies of one of their favourite books to recommend and donate to whoever you choose.
The publishing industry believes that by giving away this unprecedented amount of books free, we will encourage people to read more or indeed be the catalyst for some to take up reading for pleasure for the first time. The selection of titles is diverse; from classics such as the Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark to more recent books such as Fingersmith by Sarah Waters. There are novels, thrillers, crime books, children’s books and non fiction on the list to be given away.
So take a look at the World Book Night website and get involved in this amazing event. You can visit the web site to register and read the launch announcement by clicking here. http://www.worldbooknight.org/
Good luck in becoming one of the 20,000 to be selected.
