It gives us great pleasure to invite you to participate in: ”The book fair” the VII-th edition, organized by the County Library: “Duiliu Zamfirescu” Vrancea, during the 6-th and the 8-th of October 2011.
The book fair will take place in the foyer and the hallway of the Municipal Theater: ”Maior Gh. Pastia“ from Focşani.
The County Library „Duiliu Zamfirescu” Vrancea has this year as a Book Fair theme:” Books at the gates of Vrancea”. Through this we shall promote and we shall bring to your knowledge personalities, writers and books from Vrancea.
At the same time we wish to promote quality literature and writing, so that we ease the access of readers to books from the material point of view (sales/promotions) and informational, to support creativity, editing, commercializing, sharing and promoting  of the Romanian books, and especially the local literature via the library.
During these three book fair days there will be activities going on which will include book presentations and launching of new books on the market, exhibitions and more importantly, meetings with writers and also professional meetings.
