Damascus-SANA
The Ministry of Culture called on the institutions of Syrian public and private publishing houses to participate in the Syrian Book Fair 2021, which will be hosted by Al-Assad National Library on the 26th of next month.
During the meeting of the General Supervisory Committee of the exhibition devoted to discussing plans and ways to make this event a success, Minister of Culture Dr. Lubana Mushouh clarified that the Syrian Book Fair is not a substitute for the Al-Assad Library International Book Fair, but rather a response to the desire of readers, intellectuals and publishing houses to hold a book fair.
The Minister of Culture pointed out that the aim of the exhibition is to see the reality of the situation of the Syrian book and present it to the public, stressing the need for partnership to work with ministries and concerned authorities, to select books carefully and to simulate all fields.
The committee also discussed the exhibition's logo, the accompanying cultural program, and the visual and advertising vision.
