The Universal Reading Foundation has published a series of books prepared according to the principles of universal design, which connect, inspire and break down barriers in access to literature. The series is published as part of the project "Books without borders", led by the Information Society Development Foundation.<\/strong><\/p>

The Books Without Borders Project \u2014 for whom and why?<\/strong><\/p>

The \u201cBooks Without Borders\u201d project was created for people who, for various reasons, have not yet felt sufficiently invited to read. They may be adults who do not read for various reasons: maybe they have not come across a book that would delight them enough; maybe due to neurodiversity or age, the usual thick novels seem uninviting to them, or maybe they are learning Polish and only read in their own language? The \u201cBridges\u201d series is intended to unite everyone \u2013 FPC offers novels, a comic book and a graphic novel, which the foundation intends to be an effective invitation to a very wide audience.<\/p>

Thanks to the use of solutions consistent with the idea of universal design, books in the "Bridges" series should be accessible and relevant to a very wide range of recipients. A seasoned reader will be delighted by the crazy dialogue with Mickiewicz in the edition of Jaros\u0142aw Kaczmarek, fans of crime novels will appreciate "Mczne tajemnice osade Chryzantem" by Joanna Jagie\u0142\u0142o, and lovers of social novels will smile at "Przystanek mi\u0142o\u015b\u0107" by Barbara Kwinta.<\/p>

In creating this series, we collaborated with outstanding creators whose passion gives each book a unique character. Their commitment made the content and form of the edition exceptional. The combination of carefully developed texts with beautiful graphics, designed by Urszula P\u0105gowska, Aleksandra Cie\u015blak and Urmas Viik, is an undeniable asset of the entire collection.<\/em> \u2013 says Katarzyna Konopka, member of the FPC board.<\/p>

Design Books Without Borders<\/a> (English: Books without Borders) <\/em>The project is implemented in an international partnership, involving: the project leader \u2013 the Information Society Development Foundation (Poland), the Universal Reading Foundation (Poland), Stadt K\u00f6ln (Germany), Leser S\u00f8ker Bok (Norway), Tr\u00f8ndelag Fylkebibliotek (Norway), and the Ukrainian Association of Librarians (Ukraine) as an associated partner.<\/p>

International cooperation and exchange of experiences in the field of including all people in the culture of books is a unique experience and we thank FRSI very much for inviting us to this project. Together we emphasize that reading is inclusive: it can be the most democratic tool for social inclusion if, as a society, we can make everyone feel invited to read. The series "Bridges" is an attempt at such a broad invitation. \u2013 <\/em>says Maria Deskur, president of the Universal Reading Foundation.<\/p>

We are glad that we can offer Polish libraries such a unique tool to expand the group of people using libraries. Recognizing and openly inviting groups that we cannot reach is important - a library is democratic not only because it is free, but also if it becomes a place to which everyone really feels invited. - <\/em>emphasizes Ma\u0142gorzata Makowska from the Information Society Development Foundation.<\/p>

About the "Bridges" Series
<\/strong>The "Bridges" series is an invitation to the world of literature for those who have not yet felt effectively invited to read! Sans serif font, line spacing that provides breathing space, paper in a creamy, eye-friendly shade, which significantly improve the comfort of reading, but also: great contemporary texts combined with classics, comics and picture books - these elements together create a range of choices that the publisher intends to tempt the untempted; to invite the uninvited, to delight those who do not enjoy reading.<\/p>

The series includes a collection of titles presenting various literary genres.
and formats. The following items have been published so far:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
