When participants certify reading activities such as purchasing books or borrowing from libraries, points are accumulated. Depending on the accumulated points, up to 60,000 won per year (up to 30,000 won in the second half of 2025) is provided as local currency.
As part of the opening event, Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation will operate a special in-house library week under the theme 'Saem, Muldeulda!' until July 31.
During this period, foundation employees and staff of resident companies who borrow books will have a chance to receive recommended books through a drawing. In addition, foundation employees will be given calligraphy bookmarks as a separate gift.
