Where every book is an island to discover
Welcome to the Literary Archipelago, a project promoted by the Lucrezia Tangorra E.T.S. Foundation, created with the aim of radically transforming the perception of reading — moving it away from the idea of a mere school obligation to make it a space of free choice, deep self-awareness, and an authentically shared experience with classmates and teachers.
Through this journey, we are committed to offering young people the ideal conditions to become lifelong readers. This milestone fosters the development of fundamental skills such as the ability to concentrate, the exploration of meanings,the recognition of one’s identity, and the stimulation of autonomous and divergent thinking.
To translate this vision into concrete practice, the project includes the creation of classroom libraries at the “Giovanni XXIII” secondary school in Cantello (province of Varese), enriched with a curated bibliography of the highest quality. In this way, books become immediately accessible and usable tools for the students, who engage in daily individual silent reading at school, turning every volume into a new island to explore.
The Literary Archipelago was inaugurated on September 30, 2025.
