Recent years have seen more Chinese people reading books. However, adults still spend most of their time on the internet, and reading activities are found mainly in large and medium-sized cities, and, what's more, superficial and fragmented reading is prominent. This indicates that how to promote in-depth reading still has a long way to go. Here are some of my suggestions:

First, optimize the supplies for rural bookstores. Currently, China has more than 600,000 bookstores in rural areas. Yet, problems remain, such as overdue replenishment, unreasonable allocation system, lack of depth, low utilization rate, overemphasis on hardware and quantity, insufficient attention to management and quality, and inadequate reading enthusiasm and initiative. I, therefore, suggest to establish a high-standard reading coordination mechanism with unified procurement, cataloging and distribution for rural bookstores across the country, formulate science-based and reasonable service policies and management standards, and promote the urban-rural flow of reading elements. On this basis, rural bookstores should provide one-stop reading services in light of their conditions to better serve "agriculture, rural areas and farmers."
