London Book Fair celebrates publishing from Arab countries. (12 April 2008)
CairoBookStop is a non-commercial web-project that seeks to bring together and assist scholars, book lovers, book buyers, book makers, and book sellers in Cairo by providing a space on the web that collects and presents basic information and brief descriptions of some of the literary publishers and bookstores in Cairo. In order to locate a specific title of more recent Arabic literature, one typically starts with the publisher. Many bookstores in Cairo arrange their shelves by publisher, and often in order to procure a specific title - especially one by a lesser known author or that hasn't made it into multiple print runs - one must make a trip to the original publishing house itself. One of the aims of CairoBookStop is to help those seeking titles track down publishers and where their desired books may be located in Cairo.
