Book Swap 2024

Book Swap 2024: Give and spread our love

BOOK SWAP - RMIT Vietnam Library's most anticipated event is back!

  • Bring the books you wish to swap to your campus library. We will start receiving books from 18 March to 22 April at booths located at RMIT Vietnam Library (both SGS and HN) and RMIT Canteen (SGS)
  • The more books you bring, the more books you can exchange. With 15 books exchanged, you can receive a brand new book from the library
  • On World Book Day, 23 April, the main event will happen. You can check in with your e-Ticket to start swapping books with other participants!

Calling for donation: Nurture the little warrior's passion for reading with Vina Capital Foundation (VCF)

To nurture young patients' passion for reading and accompany them in their journey to recovery, RMIT University has coordinated with Vina Capital Foundation (VCF) to donate books to hospitals in Hanoi and HCMC.
