Calling all web workers for inspiring literacy project

The Reader Organisation are looking for web workers to get involved in a project coming up at the end of January to help them promote reading to the people of Liveprool as part of an event called Impact48.

The Reader has high hopes for the weekend and is looking for volunteers who can build apps, develop a website for the Liverpool – City of Readers’ project and create a marketing campaign that uses social media to promote the project. One app which the Readers think would be great would be a reading tour of Liverpool linking stories, authors and events to a mobile app – but a key aspect of the weekend is to find new exciting ways to get the city reading using technology.

But they are also looking to record 48 hours of reading and collect 4,800 books over the weekend; plus engage with visitors who pop in for coffee and a chat in the park.

6pm Friday 24th to 6pm Sunday 26th January 2014
being held in Liverpool
at Calderstones Mansion
for The Reader Organisation
to support “Liverpool – City of Readers”.

It would be great to see a large number of webs workers coming forward to help them with this project so if you can sign up via the website http://impact48.org/next-event-the-reader-organisation/
