It's apparently a celebration where people known as 'givers' pass out free books to adults on April 23. The givers receive 30 free books from the WBN organization and distribute them according the guidelines. It began last year in the UK and will be observed in the US this year. I had never heard of it until I saw the notice in the window of my neighborhood bookstore this morning. It's too late to be a giver this year, but here's their website: About World Book Night
