The Promotion of Campus Reading Programs

Set an example of Lotung Senior High School, Taiwan

Abstract

Taiwan is one of the several Asian countries which highly value higher education investment. Students feel so heavy about study pressure that they seldom make habits of getting into libraries; in other words, they only read rare extracurricular books. But in the past ten years, our school library tried hard to further the possibility of promoting reading environment and developing the model of organizing reading groups. It is obvious that making up class reading groups has been developed in the campus. But we also encounter some difficulties and limitations. Therefore, the text tries to share our past experiences with the public.
