Moon Chun Memorial College: "BookCrossing" Launching Ceremony





MCM College hosted a “BookCrossing” Launching Ceremony at Junior Common Room on 30 September 2020 to promote the concept of environmental reading and allow favourite books to pass to another book lover randomly through free books exchange, thus retaining the value of books. College Master, Prof. Thompson, Associate Master, Dr. Noronha, Assistant University Libarian, Mr Billy Leung, resident fellow and student representatives officiated the ceremony. In his opening speech, Prof. Thompson shared with the participants three must read books in life and encouraged them to enrich their lives through reading. To celebrate the setting up of BookCrossing at MCM College, two students, Joker Chao and Fish Wong sent their congratulations with beautiful hand written calligraphy. After the ceremony, HA President, Iris Lam introduced the books at the BookCrossing station and the self-help registration procedures. At present, most of the books at the station were donated by graduated residents, UM Library and The Funny Old Tree Theatre Ensemble, categories include history, reference books, finance, life philosophy, literature and art. Right after the introduction, the participants joined a book reading and sharing session. Under the guidance of the host, Bill King Wang, everyone shared the good books they brought and enjoyed a wonderful feast of reading.
