Book Platform public presentation in Tbilisi

Book Platform project public presentation took place on the 26th January 2013 in the grand hall of the National Parliamentary Library of Georgia. The presentation gathered book sector stakeholders and media, and was opened by Marine Mizandari, deputy minister of culture, and Oliver Resiner of the EU Delegation in Georgia. Marine Mizandari stressed that the Ministry backs up Book Platform project and its associates with a moral support in recognition of its importance for the future of the country's book sector. Oliver Reisner spoke of the EuroEast Culture Programme and the uniqueness of the project. In the presentation that followed, Yana Genova, manager of Book Platform at Next Page Foundation, outlined the project's philosophy, its relation to the global changes in publishing, its aims and activities. She also invited the stakeholders to actively use all the project's instruments and to participate in its implementation. As an example of a very recent outcome of the project's work, representatives of Experto company briefly shared some of the preliminary results of the Readership Survey that was carried out in Georgia in the last two months.

Questions from the audience and the informal discussions during the reception that followed oscillated around the topic of Georgian access to international book markets and of the special measures that small markets require. Importantly, a publisher from the GPBA asked about the risks of the project, and the monitoring measures applied during project implementation.
