Indonesia Book Fair is an instrument to demonstrate the growth in book industry and expose the most recent books to public, it is also an attempt to enhance the culture and interest in reading as well as a method to obtain a healthy and pleasant leisureliness.

Following its success by conducting cultural themes for the last two years which are Nangroe Aceh Darussalam and Papua Province, this year, Indonesian Book Publishers Association (IKAPI) will implement another cultural theme which happened to be the 32nd province in Indonesia, Gorontalo.

The decision to select Gorontalo as the theme for Indonesia Book Fair 2007 is based on the development of this province, which considered as a new province in Indonesia but possesses a great culture and potential for tourism that could be exploited and presented to wide society through “Reading Habit” program, which is the concept for this year’s exhibition with the purpose to enhance intellectual quality among diverse and wide society in Indonesia
