Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of several reading promotion campaigns for children carried out by public libraries in other countries. “Listen Out! - The Stuttgart Reading Project” in Germany, “Chatterbooks” in the U.K., “Born to Read, Read to Bond” in Singapore and “Grandparents and Books(GAB)” in the U.S.A. are examined. While the first three campaigns started in the 2000s, GAB has been carried out by Los Angeles Public Library since 1989. The characteristics of these campaigns are as follows: First, reading books with adults is emphasized. Second, it is important to get some support and sponsor from organizations and individuals in the community. Third, various media, program and activities related to books are used to promote interests in reading. Fourth, discussion and reading are equally emphasized. Fifth, the geographical boundaries of reading campaigns can be extended in the global community.
