Last summer [2006], South Africa played host to the inaugural international Cape Town Book Fair, a welcome opportunity for African and international publishers to promote forthcoming books, introduce authors, and celebrate African publishing.

Under crystal-blue skies and against the regal backdrop of Table Mountain, publishers, booksellers, distributors, and librarians from around the world flocked to the Cape Town International Convention Centre to celebrate the book as South Africa hosted its first-ever international book fair, 17–20 June 2006.

“The fair has been a resounding success,” said Benita Snyman of the National Library of South Africa.
