EBF and IBF Annual Conference 2006 - Turin, Italy, 3-6 May
2006
Innovate... or Fail! "... Keep your Bookshop in
Business by keeping your Business in the Bookshop"
The aim of the conference is to focus participants’ attention on the
absolute necessity of keeping up with innovations in the trade if
they want to expand their bookselling activity, or even simply stay
in business.
Technologies are evolving faster and faster and bringing in new
challenges at a rapid pace: Google is defying the book community
with its Google Print and Google Library Programmes. New types of
electronic books are to be launched on the market. Authors can
contact their readers directly through online book providers.
How to cope with these changes? What implications do they have for
the book trade as a whole, and on bookselling in particular? Is it
the end of the paper book? What impact will all this have on the
book supply chain and on the behaviour of consumers? Will there
still be publishers and booksellers in 20 years’ time? The
conference, jointly organised by the European Booksellers Federation
and the International Booksellers Federation, will explore and
discuss these challenging issues and see how booksellers can
“keep their bookshop in business by keeping
their business in the bookshop” The organization of
the conference has been possible thanks to the help and the support
of ALI, (Associazione Librai Italiani) and of the Turin Book fair.
