'Our nation loves books but we have to educate love for reading in
the society under today's conditions," Grigor Hovanisyan, chairman
of the organizational committee of the book festival and the deputy
director of "De Facto" journal, told the reporter of Panorama.am. In
his words, the festival will serve its aim, that is, to raise the
role of books. "This festival will become a tradition. It will be
continuous," he added.
On October 13-14, Book Festival-2007 will be held at the Republic of
Freedom. The boutiques that will be put along the square will be free
of charge for the participants. Publishing houses, printing houses,
book shops and authors will take part in the festival. Each of the
participants should submit books published before October 1, 2007.
"The Ararat Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church that is a
co-organizer of the festival will present spiritual literature. We aim
to disseminate spiritual literature among people," Eliza Manukyan,
press service responsible person of the diocese, said. In her
words, they are going to present 16 books which are both popular
and scientific.
The festival is held at the initiative of the Republican Party and "De
Facto" public and political journal. The revenues from the festival
will be used to open a bookshop-library in Stepanakert. The day of
the festival is not accidental. Today the Armenian Apostolic Church
celebrates the Day of Translators.
