From the editorial office. In Krasnoyarsk, Kryakk (Krasnoyarsk Fair of Book Culture) was held for the fourth time. This is the largest regional book fair in Russia, which is also held at the expense of the charity fund. It combines the exhibition-selling Russian publishers and a book festival consisting of performances by writers, musicians, translators and scientists from Russia and Western Europe. There is also a professional program intended primarily for librarians.

A modern book fair is not only and not so much a book as the context in which these books are alive. Therefore, the program of a normal fair consists of events that are not necessarily related to the book directly, but necessarily with literature.
