Infiltrate the book and enjoy the ＂Yue＂ reading quietly.

April 23rd this year is the 30th "World Reading Day". In recent years, Shandong, Hubei, Guizhou and other places have promoted the construction of shared reading spaces such as urban study rooms and staff reading rooms. By entering communities, parks and construction sites, they have created a reading atmosphere with rich books, realizing that "books are everywhere, books are always floating, and books are enjoyed by everyone", which has deepened the cultural heritage of the city.

Entering the community: the "cultural charging station" at home.

Mr. Liu, a citizen of Zhucheng, Weifang City, Shandong Province, came to the Haiyan study room next to his own community. There is not much room here, but there are 15,000 books in the library, and you can borrow them for free. For Mr. Liu, Haiyan’s study is a "spiritual home" built in front of his home. He said, "It’s very convenient to walk around the corner after dinner. This study has a large collection of books and a wide range of knowledge, which really provides reading convenience for the people near us. "

In a space of more than 350 square meters, various books such as history and literature are dazzling. Many community residents quietly enjoy reading time. As the cultural service platform of Zhucheng’s new era civilization practice, Haiyan study room is connected with Zhucheng library, where books can be borrowed and returned. Mr. Zhang, a citizen, said: "My family lives nearby. The study environment is good and there are many books. You can come at any time if you want to read."

With the help of urban study, Zhucheng has created a diversified public cultural space and integrated culture into life. The relevant person in charge said: "We strive to create a spiritual pure land, let everyone share their reading experience, and make reading more books and reading good books a way of life, which is a kind of promotion and help for personal spiritual growth and the current construction of a scholarly society."

In spring, Fangfei is good, and reading is just the time. Recently, a 24-hour city study was officially launched in a community in Economic Development Zone, Jingzhou City, Hubei Province. Walking into it, warm yellow lights and wooden bookshelves set each other off. There are more than 3,000 books covering social sciences, literature and art, children and other fields, which can meet the reading needs of readers of all ages.

"You can enter by swiping your ID card, and you can go at any time if you want to read at night." "In the past, I had to drive to the city library to borrow books. Now there is a city study at my doorstep, and it is really convenient for children to borrow books themselves after school." Residents who come to read books are full of praise for the city study at the door of this house. It is understood that there is a self-service book borrowing and returning machine and an intelligent security system in the city study. Residents can swipe their ID cards to enter the study, borrow and return books, and the community will regularly arrange special personnel for cleaning and maintenance. The relevant person in charge said that the study room has created a good reading atmosphere for community residents and is becoming a "cultural charging station" at home.

Entering the park: looking down at the book and looking up at the scenery.

Located in the scenic Guanshan Lake Park, Luming Bookstore in Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, takes the concept of "nature as a companion, book fragrance moistens the heart" and devotes itself to creating a multi-featured reading space integrating knowledge dissemination, ecological education, leisure experience and communication. At present, there are more than 40 reading seats and a service window, and there are more than 5,000 books in the collection, mainly in natural sciences, covering biological sciences, earth sciences, environmental sciences and other sub-categories. Focusing on ecological protection and sustainable development, it echoes the green concept of parks, promotes the integration of nature and humanities, and at the same time, it is supplemented by books on classic literature, life tourism and parenting education, taking into account the diverse reading needs and creating a reading atmosphere for the whole people. The bookstore is also equipped with a self-service borrowing and returning machine to make the reading experience more efficient and intimate.

According to reports, in addition to the Luming Bookstore, Guanshanhu Park will welcome two new bookstores this year. One is the "Tanruo Bookstore Cafe" whose name is taken from "hugging together like pomegranate seeds" and symbolizes the great unity of the Chinese nation. It will be located around the National Grand Gala Square in Guanshanhu Park; The other is the "Zhixing Bookstore" with the urban spirit of Guiyang as the main creative concept, which will be located near Qiannan Gate of Guanshanhu Park.

In Danxia Cultural and Sports Park in Qingshan Lake District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province, a white building resembling a conch stands near the water, with floor-to-ceiling windows reflecting the lake light, and spiral wooden bookshelves winding upward, attracting passers-by to stop frequently. As a new cultural landmark, Conch Bookstore has received more than 1,000 readers per day with its unique design concept and rich cultural activities since its opening in 2022. "It’s not as serious as a traditional library, but it’s like walking into a landscape painting." Mr. Wang said.

Entering the Conch Bookstore, the 270-degree floor-to-ceiling window around the lake frames the water color into a natural painting. The whole row of atmospheric wooden bookshelves perfectly echoes the curve of the lake shore, and the whole row of four-lane waterfall lending and display system is very eye-catching; The room with circular arch inside, seagull-shaped lighting, wavy ceiling and minimalist wooden decoration style can feel the small and exquisite design concept everywhere. This 1,500-square-meter city study has nearly 30,000 books, which is a cultural service space integrating reading and sharing, public lectures, art curation, activities and exchanges.

Entering the construction site: supplementing "spiritual food" for builders

At the site of the first phase project of Anhe New Port, the central port area of Anqing Port, Anqing City, Anhui Province, a site library of more than 10 square meters was built. The space was not large, but it soon became an important place for builders to supplement "spiritual food". "It is not unusual to have a bookstore on the construction site. The key is how to give full play to its role and make it truly serve the vast number of builders." The person in charge of the project department said.

There are a large number of books in the library to help project personnel prepare for the first-class construction engineer, registered safety engineer and other certificate examinations. In order to improve learning efficiency, everyone comes here to study by themselves. "The professional books in our library are very rich. I am reading the Code for Welding of Steel Structures recently to enrich my professional knowledge." Looking at the dazzling array of bookshelves, a worker said happily. At present, the site library contains more than 300 books of all kinds, which not only meets the dual needs of front-line employees in culture and skills, but also creates a good atmosphere of "striving to be a learning employee and building a learning project".

The staff bookstore of the headquarters of China Railway 16th Bureau was established in 2018, with more than 1,000 books, including Chinese studies, current politics, literature and popular science. The biggest feature of the library is its mobility. It is a mobile staff library converted from containers, which is convenient for display and use in surrounding construction sites such as Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. There are computers, computer desks, reading desks, tea makers and coffee makers in the library, making the "staff library" a good platform for learning.
