Reading is the window of knowledge. So it’s really important for any country to improve people’s literacy. With a high literacy rate, the country’s prosperity will also improve. In developed or developing countries, literacy is one of the subjects that the school needs to teach. This indicates how important is literacy in many
countries. Country’s prosperity is related to country success in improving people literacy.
Because of this, we can see how it is the government’s obligation to try and improve the literacy rate. A country like Finland which is ranked number 1 as the world’s most literate nation, has a technologically advanced library. So we can see how creating reading infrastructure really help improving the literacy rate.
