Kashmar has established its first-ever Book Advisory Council, an initiative aimed at fostering a more vibrant reading culture and supporting the development of local libraries and literary programs. Composed of authors, librarians, educators, and cultural experts, the council will provide guidance on book selection, reading promotions, and strategies to increase public engagement with literature. This move is seen as a significant step towards enhancing intellectual life in the city.
The formation of the council reflects a growing commitment to literature and education within the community. Its primary objectives include identifying local reading needs, organizing literary events, and advising on policies that strengthen the publishing and library sectors.
