Today is World Book Day

Today is "World Book Day," and it shows my age that I immediately thought of our shelf of old encyclopedias from 1975. That's not it.

From Wikipedia
World Book Day or World Book and Copyright Day (also known as International Day of the Book or World Book Days) is a yearly event on 23 April, organized by UNESCO to promote reading, publishing and copyright. In the United Kingdom, the day is instead recognised on the first Thursday in March.

World Book Day was celebrated for the first time on 23 April 1995.
