The Vietnam Book and Reading Culture Day was first held in 2022 following a decision by the Prime Minister.
The day is expected to encourage and develop the reading movement among the community, contributing to building a learning society. In addition, it aims to honour readers, authors, publishers, printers, and libraries that strive to preserve, collect, and promote books.
