Amanda Ball an myself have recently lead a seminar on how to run a successful World Book Day and other reading initiatives. During the session we explored the value in participating in an established National event but we also highlighted some of the most common challenges, some useful tools for evaluation and analysis after an event and finally we discussed practical solutions based on successful case-studies.

You can find below a copy of the presentation used during  the seminar as well and some of the handouts.
