The annual Viet Nam Book Day has become a much loved festival of the community and an important cultural event in its own right. Events honouring the reading culture will take place in various regions nationwide.

According to Director of the Department of Publishing, Printing and Distribution, Hoa, the Viet Nam Book Day 2018 is also a premise to review the five-year implementation of Decision No. 284 / QD-TTg on Viet Nam Book Day.

Over recent years, Viet Nam Book Day has become more and more widely spread, contributing to the development of the publishing industry, and is an occasion to spread reading cultural values to the people.
