Launched on Oct.1, the activity received 236 audio reading works and boasted 2,504 page views. As a mobile bookstore, the audio reading platform allows faculty members to spend their free time intensively reading essays or paragraphs, which is to be kept year-round. The conference appointed a group of national reading promoters, leading the faculty to engage actively in and promote National Reading activities.
