Buenos Aires International Book Fair
by Aída Bardales -- Críticas, 1/15/2007
The Feria Internacional del Libro de Buenos Aires (Buenos Aires International Book Fair), now in its 33rd year, is one of the oldest book events in the Spanish-speaking world. Every year, more than 1 million book enthusiasts gather. This year, fair director Marta Díaz is extending an invitation on behalf of fair organizers to U.S. librarians to attend the annual event. Book prices at the Buenos Aires Fair are the lowest available anywhere, according to Díaz, who is eager to provide an opportunity for U.S. librarians.
The invitation includes free registration, four nights in a hotel (breakfast included), discounted airfare, and ground transportation to and from the airport and the fair grounds. This year’s professional days are April 16­–19. Registration deadline is March 30. The first 50 librarians to register will get priority. For more information or to register, contact Adan Griego, Green Lib. Stanford Univ., at (650) 723-3150 or send an email to adan.griego@stanford.edu.
