Preparations continue for the fourth Taiz International Book and Information Technology Fair organized by Al-Saeed establishment for Science and Culture April 26-May 10.

In a press release, establishment General Manager Faisal Saeed Farie said 75 Arab and foreign publishing houses will participate in the fair, which will contain more than 150,000 titles regarding all types of human knowledge in addition to information technology. Unlike other Yemeni book fairs, information technology will be presented intensively in this exhibition.

Distinguished for its international standard since its first round in 2003, Farie confirmed that the exhibition will continue this standard in its fourth round. However, this year's functions also will include the presence of new publishers, among them the Arab Organization for Culture and Science, with its publications, centers and tributary organizations.

Farie pointed out that the fair's aim is to support the relationship between book and reader, based on respect for the mind and continuous provision of new and interesting materials.
