literary analysis skills. It also provided a designated electronic platform for attendees to vote for the most outstanding
novel based on specific reading criteria.
The forum concluded with a set of recommendations emphasizing the importance of engaging readers in the literary
scene by introducing a parallel track to the judging panel’s evaluation, thereby providing institutional visibility to the
audience’s voice. The recommendations further
included the announcement of reader surveys and their selections, to be featured in IPAF publications or on its official
website. Additionally, the recommendations called for designing training programs aimed at enhancing critical reading
among reading club members and encouraged forging partnerships between publishing houses and these clubs to
broaden the dialogue on literary works. They also highlighted the promotion of a culture of documenting reading
experiences to enrich Arab literary memory with diverse and accessible content.
The Arabic Reading Clubs Forum represents the culmination of the distinguished knowledge partnership agreement
recently signed between MBRF and ALC, aimed at coordinating efforts to promote reading and enhance knowledge-
based activities in the Arab region.
