English Speaking club - «World Book and Copyright Day»


The English Speaking Club started as usual – with the re-introductions of the members who were absent for a long time.
The topic of the session was the World Book & Copyright Day. World Book & Copyright Day was introduced by UNESCO, it is held on April 23 each year. 
T.Gavryliuk’s   slide show dedicated to this day covered several important issues – today’s challenges in book publishing & copyrighting, the symbols, etc. The audience was also informed about the Book Day activities in the USA, the 6 rights protected by the Copyright law.
In 2011 UNESCO holds a summit: “The Book Tomorrow; the Future of the Written Word”.
The question about “Copyright violations in your own life” provoked active discussion among the club members.



Number of the visitors – 16
