"The Book Nook Project, one of the NBDB’s major projects under its Readership Development Division, was launched in 2021. It adheres to the belief that “aklat para sa lahat” (books for everyone) should be a basic human right. With over 100 Book Nook sites scattered across the country, the NBDB remains committed to fostering love of reading at a young age by making Filipino-published books more accessible and easily available to students and young readers."

"Ang pagbabasa ay hindi isang pribilehiyo lang para sa iilan—ito ay karapatan nating lahat. Nang makita ng NBDB na ang malaking problema kung bakit di tayo nagbabasa ay dahil sa kakulangan sa ‘access’ sa libro, ginawa niyang possible na abot-kamay natin ang mga aklat sa tulong ng Book Nook Project. Talagang sakto ang motto ng book nook na ‘Aklat para sa Lahat.’"
