(2019·长春质检)Lately a popular bookstore in Hefei,Anhui Province,has risen_to_fame because it becomes the world's first shared bookstore,in a move meant to encourage more reading among Chinese citizens.
It comes to people's attention as more than 200,000 visitors flooded into the store on its first day as a shared bookstore on July 16 this year,a record high since it was reopened to the public in 2013.Some 4,000 books were brought home on the first day,Thepaper.cn reported.
Customers are allowed to borrow up to two books valued under 150 yuan per visit after registering with an app and paying the 99 yuan deposit(押金).
All books on sale in the bookstore are available for sharing.Returned books that are damaged are sold at a discount.The bookstore also provides a bonus for bookworms.People who finish reading 12 books in three months receive eight percent of their deposit back,and members can be rewarded with one yuan for every book read.
“We want to bring down the cost of reading so people could read more books,”Xu Xinwei,who helps run the bookstore,told Thepaper.cn.
