Purpose of Formulation

In Yokohama-shi, "the regulations about promotion of book-reading activity of Yokohama citizen" was enforced on April 1, 2014. In addition, in March, 2014, "Yokohama citizen book-reading activity promotion plan" was devised to support citizen's reading activity widely from child to elderly person.
Based on this plan, in Tsurumi Ward, ward offices, libraries, schools, etc. collaborated to formulate the "Tsurumi Ward Reading Activity Promotion Goals" in February 2015 to promote reading activities in accordance with the local characteristics of Tsurumi Ward.
Following the formulation of the "Second Yokohama Citizens' Reading Activity Promotion Plan" in December 2019, Tsurumi Ward decided to show the direction of future reading activities promotion based on the achievement status of past efforts. We will formulate the "Second Tsurumi Ward Reading Activity Promotion Goal".
This is a target of approximately five years starting from 2020.
