"Reading Leaders" - regional championship in expressive reading aloud

As part of the anniversary events in 2021, from April to July, the Regional Library named after S. Toraigyrov initiated the Championship in expressive reading aloud among the readers of the libraries of the region.

The idea of such a competition (the popularity of which has long pushed geographic boundaries) is a very important example of how play, fun and enjoyment can be combined with reading serious literature.

The championship participants compete in unprepared reading aloud of unfamiliar texts of varying difficulty. People read an excerpt from the book proposed by the jury, and they rate the skill and artistry.

The Regional Championship is dedicated to the 30th anniversary of Independence of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the 125th anniversary of the S. Toraigyrov Regional Library. Readers of regional libraries participate in the competition within the Republican action "One country - one book".

Qualifying rounds (district, city) will be held in April. The winners of the qualifying rounds will take part in the regional round in September. Each district and city library has staff in charge of the Championship. They can provide comprehensive information on participation in the qualifying rounds.
