Every year on April 23rd, the world celebrates World Book and Copyright Day, an initiative by UNESCO to promote reading, publishing, and the protection of intellectual property through copyright. This date is symbolic, as it marks the death anniversaries of literary legends like William Shakespeare, Miguel de Cervantes, and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega.
To mark this special occasion, our school library organized a vibrant Book Exhibition, inviting students and teachers to explore a wide range of books in both Hindi and English. The exhibition featured a curated selection of titles from beloved authors such as Roald Dahl, J.K. Rowling, Sudha Murthy, Shiv Khera, Brian Tracy, and many others.
Students actively participated by browsing through different genres—fiction, non-fiction, biographies, inspirational reads, and storybooks. Many were excited to discover new titles and were inspired to pick up reading as a daily habit.
This celebration wasn’t just about displaying books—it was about creating a space for imagination, learning, and discovery. It helped strengthen the reading culture among students and reminded us of the timeless value that books bring to our lives.
In addition to showcasing books, we also emphasized the importance of copyright awareness. Students learned how copyright protects authors' creative works and why it is essential to respect and acknowledge original content in our digital age.
