National Library Day is held on April 6th every year. A lot of people get together on this day to honor how important libraries and librarians are to our society.

Today is a time to think about how important it is to read and make sure that everyone can get books.

How National Library Day Came to Be

Since thousands of years ago, libraries have been around for a very long time. An Assyrian king named Ashurbanipal built the first well-organized library in the 7th century BC. It had about 30,000 clay pieces that were arranged by subject.

Almost every great society in history has built libraries to store and share information. These libraries were seen as important spots to learn about things like farming, health, art, and more.

People knew libraries were still important even as the internet grew. Online, you can find some things, but many people still like going to libraries to read books and hang out with other users.

Bilquis Mir’s path to the Olympic jury shows how determined she is and how much she loves the sport. When she was young, she learned to boat on the famous Dal Lake and went on to represent India.
