The festival is one of the important activities of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu Victory (May 7, 1954 - May 7, 2024).

Through this, it contributes to raising awareness, fostering a sense of responsibility, arousing national pride, love for the homeland, and the aspiration to contribute to building and developing a prosperous and happy country among all strata of the people, especially the younger generation.
For the library sector, the Festival is one of the activities aimed at strengthening, innovating, and applying information technology in propaganda work, bringing about strong effectiveness and widespread impact, contributing to encouraging reading and promoting the development of reading culture in the community.
With the participation of 42 teams and nearly 1,200 librarians, representing over 10,000 librarians from 63 provinces and cities, armed forces libraries, and university libraries nationwide, the competition concluded after four days of lively and emotionally charged events. The Organizing Committee awarded 6 Outstanding prizes, 12 First prizes, 12 Second prizes, 12 Third prizes, and other consolation prizes to the participating teams.

Particularly noteworthy was the talent competition, featuring a performance of drum and gong music combined with traditional dances and the song "Dien Bien - The Heroic Epic Resounds Forever," which was highly praised by the Organizing Committee and awarded first prize to the team.
After the festival concludes, the Organizing Committee will upload videos of the participating teams' entries to the YouTube channel "Vietnamese Books and Wisdom" for audience voting.
