For 100 years in Catalonia and for 31 years worldwide, April 23 has been celebrated as World Book and Copyright Day.

✍️ Od 100 lat w Katalonii a od 31 – na całym świecie 23 kwietnia obchodzimy Światowy Dzień Książki i Praw Autorskich. To okazja do świętowania zarówno dla miłośników książek, jak i dla twórców i osób pracujących w branży – od autorów i ilustratorów po bibliotekarzy i księgarzy. To również pretekst, by zwrócić uwagę na sprawy ważne dla rynku książki i branży wydawniczej, w tym niezwykle istotną kwestię praw autorskich. Z tej okazji Polska Izba Książki przygotowała plakat i zakładkę, których projekt opracował Piotr Depta-Kleśta.

📚 Każdy, kto chce świętować 23 kwietnia może plakat pobrać i wydrukować lub umieścić w swoich mediach społecznościowych.

Trump is attempting to gut funding for libraries! You can take action and fight back with the American Library Association (ALA).
Tell Congress to overturn the President’s harmful order to eliminate the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). IMLS is the only federal agency dedicated to funding library services, and eliminating it would harm ALL Americans who rely on library programs and resources.
