Building Lasting Connections Between Authors and Readers Is a Key Benchmark of the Zanjan Book Fair

Zanjan – A Zanjan-based writer and translator said: Sales volume, audience reception, the promotion of local works, and building lasting connections between authors and readers are among the indicators of success for the 11th Zanjan Book Fair.

According to the report of Iran's Ambassador of Arjan, Khadijah Ahmadi pointed out the positive impact of holding the 11th Zanjan Book Fair on the cultural and literary atmosphere of this province and continued: People's acceptance of the book fair can play a role in the effectiveness of this event and responding to the study needs of the audience.

He added: The works of the authors of Zanjan province are present in the publishing market to some extent. Publishing books in different languages ​​and dialects can help introduce these works and expand their audience. Turkish texts are difficult for Persian-speaking audiences to read and understand; Therefore, paying attention to the language of the audience can increase the accessibility of the works.

This author continued about: The design of the book cover should be appropriate to its subject and content. This issue can be effective in better introducing the works to the audience. Authors should research topics of interest to readers and focus their activities more on areas of interest to the audience.

In another part of his speech, Ahmadi said, referring to the audience's acceptance of native authors' works, "reading books in Azeri language is enjoyable for Azeri-speaking audiences." Publishing books in different languages ​​and dialects can help the authors communicate more with the audience.

He considered the expansion of the use of virtual space as one of the obstacles to reading books and said about the solutions to increase people's access to books: increasing discount services in book fairs can help different sections of the society to purchase books at a lower cost.

This author also emphasized the role of educational and cultural centers in increasing per capita reading and continued: If students read various educational and cultural books in addition to course topics, their knowledge will increase. Encouraging these groups to study can also help reduce dependence on cyber space.

Referring to the time limit of holding the book fair, Ahmadi said: In my opinion, the Zanjan book fair should be held several times a year to better meet the study needs of the people. The amount of sales, the reception of the audience, the introduction of local works and the establishment of a stable relationship between authors and readers are among the success indicators of the 11th Zanjan Book Fair.
