Hanoi book fair set for Sept. 22

No food will be available at the fair, but the organizing committee, which includes officials from the Hanoi People’s Committee, has prepared a smorgasbord of book related events including at least a dozen booths featuring books about the city of Hanoi.

There will be exhibits of books aimed at the diverse ethnic population of Vietnam and displays from bookstores that specialize in cookbooks, mysteries, travel, photography, philosophy or art.

In addition, the organizers noted there will be guest speakers from the northern region to talk about the trends in book publishing in the digital age, copyright issues and entrepreneurship along with a variety of topics on business management.
