Publishers Weekly and the Miami Book Fair have agreed to work together to produce a consumer magazine as a guide to this year’s literary event set for November 13-20.
The print guide, which will also be available digitally, will feature interviews with a number of authors who will be in participating in this year’s fair, a look at some unique fair offerings, and highlights from the many panel presentations that are planned. Features on the fair’s growing Spanish-language, Caribbean, and children’s programs are also in the works.
This is the first time PW and MBF have teamed up. Speaking to the partnership, PW associate publisher Joe Murray said: “PW looks forward to working with the fair team to put together a snapshot of the best of what the fair has to offer.”
“We are really excited to partner with PW to bring information about the Miami Book Fair to national and international audiences,” said MBF program director Lissette Mendez. “The fair brings the best in books to Miami every year and we’d love to have even more people come be part of our community of readers.”
This is the 33rd edition of the fair, which will be held on the grounds of Miami Dade College. In addition to attracting 450 authors, 250 publishers and booksellers will be selling books during MBF's Book Fair weekend, November 18-20.
