This year's poster is the work of the Alicante illustrator Ximo Abadía (Alicante 1983). The 2020 Libraries Day campaign has already started in Spain, and will be held on November 13th.

An event that will undoubtedly be marked by health circumstances and with which bookstores want to thank the support received in recent months, in addition to highlighting the important role they play both in the book sector and in society with their roots in the neighborhoods and the creation of reading communities.
