British Council is celebrating its 75th anniversary with the project ‘Books Gone Wild’.
British Council is celebrating its 75th anniversary with the project ‘Books Gone Wild’. A total of 75 books will be given to as many British Council members who will then pass them on to others. All those who get a book will enter a code given inside the book, confirm their location on Google Maps, read, rate and comment on the book, pass the book along after reading it, track the book as it travels around the world and form an online community chain of people who’ve read that particular book. The longest such chain will be awarded. Details at britishcouncilonline.org/booksgonewild
