The 2012 edition of the Erode Book Festival will begin at VOC Park grounds on August 3. Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission Chairman R. Nataraj will inaugurate the festival.
The festival would bring in over 130 publishers from across the country to exhibit thousands of books on a variety of subjects this year in 200 stalls.
A marathon would be organised on the morning of the opening day of the fair (August 3) to spread awareness among people on the importance of reading books.
From the evening of August 4 to August 14, poets, writers, Tamil scholars and film directors will add colour to the festival. The festival organisers would honour ten renowned writers on August 8.
The Peravai had approached a number of private industries this year too and encouraged them to provide their labourers with gift coupons worth Rs. 100 each. These coupons could be exchanged at the fair to purchase books. The organisers had also designed a gift box with selected books worth Rs. 10,000. People could gift these boxes to the government schools and individuals of their choice.
