In March 2022, FEP and the Ukrainian Book Institute launched the crowdfunding campaign Books without borders. Thanks to all donors who joined us, we printed thousands of children’s books in Germany, Italy, Hungary, and Poland. We also bought books directly from Ukrainian publishers and distributed them to displaced Ukrainian children.
The crowdfunded amount yet to be spent will be sent to Better Time Stories.
Leipzig Book Fair is the most important get-together in the spring for the book and media industry. The event connects readers with authors, publishers and media companies from Germany and around the world.
During the last edition of the book fair, 2,500 exhibitors from 46 countries presented their new books to be published during spring, with 286,000 visitors attending the exhibition grounds and throughout the city.
Leipzig Book Fair is held in conjunction with the Manga-Comic-Con and the Leipzig liest ("Leipzig reads") reading festival. The Book Fair is supported by the Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels.
