A joint project between Keio University and Yurindo Co., Ltd.
Production of "Life with Reading," which verbalizes the tips and joys of reading
The Takashi Iba Laboratory at Keio University and Yurindo Co., Ltd. have jointly produced "Life with Reading," a language that compiles the tips and joys of reading. "Life with Reading" verbalizes the tips and joys of reading, as well as the concept of "creative reading" required in the coming era, and compiles them into 27 words.
The details of this achievement will be announced and introduced at a forum (1:00 PM–2:30 PM; hosted by Yurindo Co., Ltd.) during the 19th Library Fair & Forum, to be held at PACIFICO Yokohama on Thursday, November 9. At the venue, cards featuring a part of "Life with Reading" will be distributed exclusively to forum attendees.
Promoting reading using "Life with Reading" is a new approach from a completely different perspective and should be a highly effective means of encouraging creative reading in settings such as libraries and school education. We invite you to introduce and cover this project.
