The "most beautiful library" is accused of being full of pirated books.
Some books even have long pornographic descriptions.
Yesterday, an article entitled "Full of pirated books can also be the most beautiful library, and Hedgehog Bookstore hit all readers in the face" caused a heated discussion on the Internet. This article first appeared on the official WeChat account, a WeChat "Zuo Shu". The article claims that the "most beautiful library" Liyuan Bookstore is full of pirated books after receiving donations from readers for several years.
For example, White Deer Plain recommended by the library has People's Literature Publishing House as its cover and October Literature Publishing House as its inner page. In a book "harry potter and the half-blood prince", the inside page appeared "How to translate this sentence? Who will help? " Words are not correct translations. On the inside page of the cover of Yu Boutique Collection, the title of Tao Self-report is printed, and the book has the seal of "Hedging Garden Collection". In a book 1Q84, the blue waist seal is printed directly on the book cover. In addition, some books even have large sections of pornographic descriptions.
According to the article, in order to enrich the book collection, Hedgehog Bookstore put forward a book exchange strategy: donate three books, you can get one from the bookstore, and question "How did these 7000 books slowly become pirated books?" Is it unintentional or intentional for donors to donate pirated books? " After the article was issued, it caused a lot of forwarding.
Pirated books are donated.
The bookstore will be thoroughly cleaned up.
Yesterday afternoon, Hedgehog Bookstore issued a statement on the "Pirated Book Storm", saying that 30% of the books in the bookstore are sets of books imported from the library in the early stage; 70% is donated by readers and institutions. For the "three books for one" activity, the bookstore explained that the original intention of the activity was to enrich the books in the bookstore and let the books flow among book lovers. However, the reality is that a large number of high-quality genuine books have been robbed, and bookstores have been flooded with pirated books, gambling books and even exercise books in a short time. At that time, the library had not established a mature volunteer team to help manage it, and it was all supported by the curator Pan and several villagers. Because it is difficult for manpower and energy to strictly examine and negotiate the donation of all books, the activity lasted for a short time and was urgently stopped.
Regarding whether there are pirated books in the hot online bookstore, the bookstore admits that there are pirated books and expresses regret. "But it's not like an article circulating on the Internet. The bookstore is full of pirated books. Although we welcome suggestions from all walks of life, exaggerating the facts will only damage this public welfare project dedicated to creating an ideal reading environment for everyone. "
The bookstore responded that every year on the eve of the opening, the curator and volunteers will conduct a comprehensive inspection of the books in the library, and will also invite library professionals to help select pirated books and books that are not suitable for reading in the bookstore. Volunteers who come every week will also pick out pirated books and online novels with inappropriate content, but some pirated books still don't distinguish.

have a conversation
Librarian: I'm really sorry for my negligence in my work.
Yesterday, the reporter of Beiqing Daily contacted Pan, the volunteer curator of Liyuan Bookstore. Pan admitted negligence in his work and apologized for the "piracy storm" that was hotly debated this time. At the same time, Pan also said that this "bad thing" also brought some unexpected gains to the development of bookstores. At present, four publishing houses have contacted bookstores, hoping to donate books. Pan also hopes to take this opportunity to crack down on pirated books.
Beiqing Daily: This "piracy storm" caused a heated discussion. What is the general situation? Have you ever noticed pirated books in the bookstore?
Pan: At present, more than 70% of the books in bookstores are donated by readers in the name of public welfare, and the remaining 30% are bought as a set of books. I'm sure the book I bought is definitely not pirated. Before this incident, I never suspected that there were pirated books. Of course, we also have volunteers to check these books. I just think they are poorly printed and their covers are also poor. Bookstores don't sell books, so there is no need to put pirated books in bookstores.
Beiqing Daily: There was a book donation activity before. Will the donated books be checked and put on the shelves again?
Percy: The activity we do is to hope that the books in the library can flow. Later, we felt that this could not be done. We did it for about two weeks, and then we canceled. Volunteers help us check every week, mainly to check the broken books. I know that some books on the Internet will be taken off if their covers are not good. Including many donated reference books, such as IELTS test books, student exercise books, free magazines and so on. But I didn't expect it to be a pirated book. I just realized how serious it was. Because the bookstore is not selling books, but a platform to share with everyone, inviting everyone to participate in public welfare and do something meaningful. The appearance of this incident is also a reminder to me.
Beiqing Daily: Even if these pirated books are donated by readers, many people will question the bookstore's auditing obligation.
Pansy: Yes, we haven't accepted book donations for two years since the last activity. We can't deny that some people let some books in. We also installed a camera to prevent other bad books from appearing here. But it is impossible to see how many pirated books there are now. It is necessary to check every book. Let's just say take your time
Beiqing Daily: What was the original intention of the bookstore?
Pan: When we built the bookstore, we actually thought it was very simple. It was a completely open bookstore, which was equivalent to putting a bookcase at the door. The readers came and thought it was nice here, and they also brought some books. This is a very casual exchange place. I really didn't expect that there would be problems with donating books.
Beiqing Daily: What will happen to these pirated books?
Percy: We have many volunteers, and they are particularly anxious. Volunteers said that they would go to the bookstore to sort out these books this Saturday. If you find pirated books, you have to take them off the shelves. Bookstores are bookstores. I'm really sorry for this.
Beiqing Daily: Are there any plans to accept donations in the future?
Pam: I won't answer for the time being. If you really need it one day, you can tell you what kind of books you need on the WeChat platform, one for each person. We have received four or five hundred people now, each of whom has a lot of books, so there is no shortage of books now. This incident not only reminds us, but also reminds all those who do this kind of public welfare action that when it happens, we must face it.
Beiqing Daily: What impact will the "piracy storm" have on bookstores?
Percy: I appreciate what this man wrote. There are so many people paying attention to the bookstore. I hope that negative energy can also remind everyone how to do public welfare. Maybe the person who donated the book didn't pay attention, but I didn't expect it to have such a big impact. I didn't realize such a thing before. On the other hand, this is also a good thing. Now I have contacted four publishing houses, and it is good that they are willing to donate books.
