Created in 2010 by FEUP's SDI, this young Reading Club aims to deepen the literary foundations of students, professors, technicians and other FEUP employees, promoting reflection and debate around authors, themes and works of undeniable literary value.
On 10 April, from 1pm to 2pm, there will be another session of the Reading Club. We have invited Susana Medina and Henriqueta Sampaio da Nóvoa to this commemorative and retrospective session of these fifteen years of existence. The moderator will be Rui Calçada, Director of the Faculty of Engineering. The session will take place in the library, on Level 0, room C003 (former Bookshop).
