A number of activities, including a charity sale of archived periodicals, book exchange, bookcrossing, hand puppet shows in English, reading accessories workshops such as “Marbling Bookmarks DIY” and “Non-woven Fabric Memo Holder DIY”, a German comic book exhibition and game booths, among others, will also be held during the promotional period, from 22 to 25 April.
