+ (long-description
+"Guile-Reader is a simple framework for building readers for GNU Guile.
+
+The idea is to make it easy to build procedures that extend Guile’s read
+procedure. Readers supporting various syntax variants can easily be written,
+possibly by re-using existing “token readers” of a standard Scheme
+readers. For example, it is used to implement Skribilo’s R5RS-derived
+document syntax.
+
+Guile-Reader’s approach is similar to Common Lisp’s “read table”, but
+hopefully more powerful and flexible (for instance, one may instantiate as
+many readers as needed).")
