The Yizhou No.1 Primary School in Hechi, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region recently set up a new book bar on campus with more than 5,000 books, providing a new place for students to read.

The book bar, founded at the expense of the charity bazaar and voluntary student donations, aims not only to encourage students to read more in their spare time instead of playing computer games, but also to cultivate a sense of responsibility within the students.
