Cape Town International Book Fair

Thanks to all those who have so generously helped us during our fieldwork in Cape Town - the Publishers Association of South Africa and colleagues at PRAESA who facilitated many of the meetings; the publishers, booksellers, book distributors and translators that we interviewed; and colleagues at the Centre for the Book, the South Africa Book Development Council, the Western Cape Education and literacy NGOs who helped complete the picture. Being in Cape Town around the time of the International Book Fair worked very well in allowing us to meet so many key players in a relation to the book industry.
