Reading Circles

Noolaham Foundation encourages the creation of reading circles. The reading culture on community based publications and discussion between people with different views have decreased significantly in our environment. Noolaham Foundation determines to promote these activities. In order to achieve these goals we would like to help out reading circles as much as possible. We plan to send complimentary books, free of charge to existing and newly evolving reading circles.

• Reading circles should get together at least once in 3 months. Monthly and weekly meetings are preferred to a great extent.
• Noolaham Foundation will not interfere in the reading circles’ way of functioning through their own political identities or book selections.
• We prefer more members in each reader circle, but the minimum number should be at least 7.
• Notes and comments by readers would be published in the blog or the Newsletter and quarterly magazine if been sent to us.
• Support for creative efforts in reader circles would be offered.
