This year, TürkTraktör opened two new libraries in Antalya Manavgat, thus reaching a total of 14 libraries.Stating TürkTraktör’s aim of helping children reach books and encouraging reading habit in children at an early age with the New Holland Yaren Library project, Aykut Özüner, TürkTraktör CEO, said: “As TürkTraktör, we work to realize sustainable corporate responsibility projects. To this end, we started to establish the New Holland Yaren Children’s Libraries in 2016. It gives us a great pleasure to open the 13th and 14th New Holland Yaren Children’s Libraries. We know that the future of our country lies in the hands of our children. Diving into the rich and magical world of books, thus gaining reading habit at an early age, expands the horizons of children and enrich their imagination. Creative and innovative children with an open mind increase our hopes for the future. I would like to take this opportunity to send my love to the students of Gündoğdu Düriye Duran Primary School and Kızılot Ahmet Yaşar Primary-Secondary School. I wish them all a life full of books.”
