The Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Centre (ALC) has concluded its first-ever participation at the Almadinah Book Fair, which was organized by the Saudi Literature, Publishing, and Translation Commission, Emirates News Agency (WAM) reported.

The event’s third edition was held from July 30 to August 5 and was attended by more than 300 publishing houses from various countries around the world.

ALC’s pavilion at the fair offered visitors a collection of over 570 publications from its Kalima Project for Translation, Esdarat project and Basaer (Insights) series of research papers and studies, including 65 new titles, WAM said.

The ALC’s participation strengthened relationships with stakeholders in the publishing and specialized book fairs industry, in addition to highlighting its own initiatives and projects related to book publishing and translation.

Dr. Ali bin Tamim, Chairman of the ALC, emphasized the center’s commitment to participating in book fairs across the region, given their role as prominent creative platforms that promote publishing and the book industry.

“Book fairs in Saudi Arabia embody the flourishing cultural scene in the Kingdom,” he said. “They provide an ideal opportunity for us at the Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Center to strengthen relations with Saudi publishing and cultural industry stakeholders at the Arab and international levels, and to exchange inspiring ideas and visions that have the potential to develop this key industry.”
