For five years, the Book Institute has been running the ‘Certificate for Small Bookstores’ programme, through which we strive to support small bookstores and strengthen their role as institutions promoting reading culture at the local level.

This program, funded by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage, is based on the premise that small, local bookstores and second-hand bookstores are more than just places to sell books – they are creative spaces, centers of access to culture, that truly shape the literary tastes of local communities. To date, 404 bookstores in both large and small towns have benefited from the programme’s support, with a total funding amounting to PLN 14,995,806.
