The mobile bus of the National Children's Library “Ion Creanga” will visit a number of communities in Drochia district, where meetings will be held featuring the author Claudia Partole, who hails from Drochia, and Claudia Balaban, the Library's director. The mobile bus, called the Bibliobus, will be in Drochia on August 23 and 24 as part of a national campaign to promote reading.

The first meeting, to take place on august 23 in the public library of Claudia Partole's native village Cotova, will be followed the same day by participation in the district festival “La izvorul dorului”.

On August 24, meetings with readers will be held at the Drochia Library for Children and in the villages Ochiul Alb, Mindic, and Dominteni.

The children attending these events will be able to enjoy the services of the Bibliobus, which offers access to a varied collection of both printed and electronic books as well as educational electronic games.
