News dated
Fidenza’s Michele Leoni municipal library recorded over two thousand book loans in August, the town council reported on 22 September. These are borrowing transactions, not two thousand different readers. [1]
Study rooms are freely accessible; borrowing requires a free library card and is subject to the service’s conditions. The stated loan period for books is thirty days. [2]
The collection is also growing through wordless books donated after May’s Zittizitti festival. These books tell stories through images and remain available to readers beyond the event itself. [1]
The bright side
Borrowing allows the same book to reach different readers. New donations expand the choice beyond the day of the festival. [1][2]
One idea, in simple words
The Michele Leoni library in Fidenza lent more than two thousand books during August. The town council reported this on 22 September. A loan is not a gift: you can take a book home and then return it, allowing someone else to read it too. [1]
Borrowing requires a free library card under the library’s conditions. The study rooms can be used freely. Imagine this example: you find a book that makes you curious, read it and return it. Another reader can then begin the same adventure. [2]
New books that tell stories mainly through pictures have also arrived. A drawing can encourage people to look closely, imagine and tell a story. The loan total counts books borrowed, not the number of different people who read them. [1]
