A national campaign has been launched to encourage people to read. The initiative aims to foster a habit that is being replaced by scrolling through content. Officials hope that by tracking reading time, citizens will develop stronger attention and critical thinking skills.

The campaign offers incentives, including payments, to those who log their reading time on a website. A points system is used to track progress and reward participants.

Further information about the campaign is available, including comments from the National Library Board's chief on the benefits of long-form reading.
