The Straits Times to publish special weekly edition in October in support of ReadSG
The effort aims to encourage people to pick up the habit of reading
The Straits Times is set to publish a special weekly edition in October to support the National Library Board's (NLB) ReadSG initiative. The compact-sized Straits Times Weekly will be released over four Fridays starting October 9 and will feature a curated selection of key news articles, stories, infographics, and book reviews. The four-page publication will be distributed free of charge to some homes and also available for pick-up at four MRT stations.
The initiative aims to encourage the habit of reading and highlight authoritative sources of news. A survey on reading habits will also be included for readers who receive a copy. Approximately 20,000 copies of each edition will be distributed until October 30.
