Flexible and diverse in popularizing theoretical books
After Directive No. 44-CT/TW of the Secretariat was issued, Tay Ninh implemented it seriously and flexibly: from organizing more than 6,800 extensive propaganda sessions, bringing theoretical book content to specific target groups, to converting access methods to digital platforms, from traditional libraries to e-book stores, websites, social networking forums... This not only helps people access knowledge anytime, anywhere.
From 2020 to present, the library system from province to district and the "Bookcase at the grassroots level" have been maintained, adding tens of thousands of valuable books. From 2020 to 2024, the Provincial Library organized 189 exhibitions, attracting more than 88,000 readers.
The whole province with 537 public forums on the social network Facebook has posted and disseminated more than 7,000 news, articles, video clips, infographics promoting and introducing political theory books, media products about theory books - from articles, short clips, infographics to video podcasts - have appeared more on social networking sites and electronic libraries.
Tay Ninh has gradually brought theoretical books out of the “shelves” and into the digital space, helping the type of book that used to be considered academic and dry become easier to access, exploit and apply. Notably, activities such as exhibitions, book reading days, author exchanges, theoretical book competitions, etc. are being organized in a way that integrates with local practices – that is a flexible way to bring theory into life in a natural and effective way.
Currently, readers do not have to waste time going to the library to borrow books, but can use information devices with internet connection, wifi to research, use theoretical books and many other types of books for free at online bookstores such as: Local Party history book data store (provincial, district, commune level) on Tay Ninh Provincial Electronic Information Portal; Tay Ninh Provincial Library's e-book store at 2 websites: https://sachweb.com/ebookthuvien/thuvienthongtayninh/product.aspx?idbook=21 and https://thuvien.tayninh.gov.vn/SearchOpac/Index
In the context of people becoming increasingly familiar with fast - concise - online information, the digitization of Tay Ninh's theoretical knowledge is flexible and timely, in line with the inevitable trend in the 4.0 digital era.
We need to consider studying and researching theoretical books as a personal need.
Along with the positive results achieved, it is necessary to recognize the fact that: there is still a certain gap between theoretical books and a segment of readers, especially the young. Partly because the content of theoretical books is still heavily academic; partly because the form of expression has not caught up with the trend and habit of accessing modern information - which tends towards images, interaction, and multimedia.
Some bookcases at the grassroots level are still operating in a perfunctory and formal manner, failing to attract attention. A number of cadres and party members still consider reading theoretical books a task, not a personal need in the process of perfecting political qualities and practical capacity.
There are many difficulties and challenges ahead – as the world changes faster, it requires a faster, more flexible and more convincing approach to knowledge. To continue to innovate, improve the quality and effectiveness of publishing, distributing and researching and studying theoretical and political books in the province in the coming time, it is thought that relevant sectors and agencies need to research, invest and apply more flexible forms such as audiobooks, video summaries, interactive lectures, etc. to continue bringing theoretical books closer to the public.
At the same time, libraries need to link, integrate data, develop smart and user-friendly search tools. Social media channels need to be utilized to “sow” theoretical content in new, familiar and inspiring forms.
Theoretical books will always have a large space to develop, when each cadre, party member, and citizen considers approaching, learning, and studying theory as a process of enriching knowledge, broadening vision, and an individual need, not a mandatory "task".
