Await International Book Fair

The annual Colombo International Book Fair (CIBF), Sri Lanka’s best-patronised public exhibition will open at the BMICH on September 19. Nearly half a million book lovers are expected to flock to this year’s exhibition. Local booksellers and publishers have taken 360 stalls and 40 stalls have been allocated to foreign publishers.

In its 11th year, the fair will run for nine days encompassing two weekends, and will be open to the public for twelve hours each day, organisers said.

Organised by the Sri Lanka Book Publishers’ Association with the BMICH as co-organiser and with the support of the Booksellers and Importers Association of Ceylon and the Samastha Lanka Poth Velenda Sangamaya, the Colombo International Book Fair 2009 will be a showcase for book publishers, booksellers, author-publishers, sellers of educational aids and material and providers of IT services. It has attracted direct participation by exhibitors from the UK, USA, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Pakistan and Germany.
