“Read and Reread Outside Doors”
The public bookcase “Read and Reread” will be available outside doors. Leave a book and take another, up to four and in good conditions, is the concept to retain.
Starting on July 1, 2023, World Library Day, this space, dedicated to the free and anonymous exchange of used books—similar to the international public bookcases model, already available at the Municipal Library of S. Domingos—will be present at Morais Park, in Parede; in Outeiro de Polima Urban Park, in S. Domingos de Rana; in Outeiro dos Cucos Urban Park, in Alcabideche; and in the Children's Park of the Alcabideche Sports Complex.
When allowing easy and simple access to books, “Read and Reread” aims to contribute to one of public libraries primary missions: stimulate and consolidate reading habits. Simultaneously, while promoting a solidary exchange of second-hand books, this project aims to inspire good practices that contribute to the implementation of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
Conditions of participation:
- Leave one, take one. Leave two, take two. Up to the maximum of four;
- The book should be in good conditions;
- Out-of-date content is not advised, in the case of technical works;
- School manuals are not accepted.
Since this actions aims only to the exchange of books, for donations, send an email to bibliotecas@cm-cascais.pt stating what you pretend to donate, in order to schedule the date, hour and place of delivery.
