{:en}The Municipality of Loano has also been awarded the title of \u201cCity that Reads\u201d for the 2018-2019 biennium. The recognition is issued by the circuit of the \u201cCenter for Books and Reading\u201d (Cepell) in agreement with Anci and is aimed at promoting and enhancing municipal governments committed to continuously carry out public policies on their territory to encourage reading.<\/p>\n
In recent days, the \u201cCenter for Books and Reading\u201d published the lists of municipalities that have implemented \u201cgood practices in the field of reading promotion\u201d and obtained the qualification: Loano is among them.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe intellectual, social and economic development of communities depends on reading,\u2019 explains Loano Mayor Luigi Pignocca, \u201dIt is with this in mind that our municipal administration, in concert with the many entities active in the area, is constantly working on organizing events and manifestations aimed at encouraging reading, especially among the youngest. The promotion of this very important activity does not only pass through book reviews, meetings with authors and support for publishing projects, but also by guaranteeing citizens of all ages free access to books in libraries and bookstores and the many projects carried out in synergy with schools.\".<\/p>\n
Culture Councillor Remo Zaccaria adds, \u201cThe objective of the recognition of \u2018City that Reads\u2019 is to recognize and support the socio-cultural growth of the community through the dissemination of reading, considered a value capable of positively influencing the quality of individual and collective life. It is precisely to try to achieve this goal that in recent months our administration launched the \u2019Pact for Reading,\u2018 which aims to systematize the work done by the municipality, educational institutions, associations and private entities in our city directly engaged in the promotion of reading in all its forms.\u2019.<\/p>\n
The efforts of the city administration and the various associations and organizations in the area involved in the Covenant had come to fruition in \u201cLOA Reads in Every Corner,\u201d the large reading event held last May 6 with spontaneous reading events in different parts of the city.<\/p>\n
The new recognition, which repeats the one already obtained in 2017, is a confirmation of a constantly growing teamwork. Councillor for Culture Remo Zaccaria therefore wishes to thank all those who believed in the project and collaborated to achieve this milestone as part of the \u201cPact for Reading\u201d initiatives. \u201cThe renewal of the recognition,\u201d says Remo Zaccaria, \"is a new starting point to continue planning and working together so that Loano continues to read.\"{:}<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
