Mass reading campaigns flourish to enrich rural civilization in Pingyi

A nationwide reading boom is sweeping across Baotai Town, Pingyi County of Linyi. Villages have transformed Party building activity rooms, rural book houses and leisure corridors into cozy reading spaces. A rich collection of books covering local chronicles, folk customs, red stories and intangible cultural heritage albums caters to readers of all ages.

Reading and sharing activities are held regularly across the town. Village cadres, senior Party members and local residents gather to recite classics, exchange ideas on rural development and pass down revolutionary traditions. Volunteers also interpret regulations on carrying forward the Yimeng Spirit in dialect, combining red culture learning with local industrial development practices. These events turn rural book houses into lively cultural lecture halls, fostering a sound atmosphere of reading, learning and communication among villagers.

Linyi, the birthplace of the Yimeng Spirit, has long prioritized the development of rural civilization. By leveraging cultural and practical training stations and rural book houses, the city will continue to carry forward fine traditions and red heritage, boost villagers’cultural confidence, and fuel the high-quality development of rural revitalization with civilized conduct and cultural strength.
