Organizers called the project "Youth Bookcrossing" and timed it to the International Youth Day. Small boxes with books are installed in the park. Each box includes a number of books of different genres - from classical to detectives. Literature is performed in three languages. People just take a book for a while and do some reading in the park. The organizers expressed hope that the project will attract a large number of young people to read. If the project becomes popular, similar book boxes will appear in other parks and squares of the city.
