“A law of the book is missing”

“In this country the problem of the South has gone off the radar. The South is not considered a factor of possible development. Young people don’t read traditional newspapers, they read books. There is great potential.” Thus, the publisher Giuseppe Laterza, speaking at Taobuk in Taormina. “A book law is missing, we must ask for it all together without dividing ourselves into categories. Libraries should be among the main actors to seize this potential – he says – This opportunity for discussion was lost in Frankfurt. Where an editorial project is missing. The first major battle is that of school libraries. The figure of the school librarian is necessary to introduce children and young people to reading from their school years”.
