The State Agency on Intellectual Property congratulates all lovers of reading and writing on the occasion of World Book and Copyright Day. It is a day with many meanings, the one celebrating the efforts of authors and all the people involved in the book creation process.

Every year since 1995, on April 23 – a day on which three great authors of the world died: William Shakespeare, Miguel de Cervantes and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega - UNESCO has decided to praise the incredible power of authors to model minds, stimulate evolutions and generate knowledge through writing.
