Book advocacy refers to the efforts made to promote reading, literacy, and access to books for all individuals. Advocates work to raise awareness about the importance of books in education and personal development, often supporting libraries, schools, and community programs. They aim to ensure that everyone, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to enjoy and benefit from reading. Organizations and individuals involved in book advocacy may organize events, donate books, or campaign for policies that support literacy initiatives. They often collaborate with authors, educators, and community leaders to create a culture that values reading and encourages lifelong learning through literature.
