Reading is a habit of creativity, termed as “Food for Thought” because the knowledge and information acquired through reading is long lasting and is retained capture in the brain though the information technology has provided updated knowledge on all subjects through internet it cannot be the substitute for the knowledge acquired from constant reading. Reading has more lasting impact on human mind than internet browsing.

Pakistan hosts one of the world’s largest markets for books publishers of all kinds. The Annual Book Fair provides an exclusive opportunity to reach out to citizens and book lovers in Pakistan’s largest city & trade hub Karachi. It also provides a platform for International book publishers to meet with Pakistan’s Industry specialists and explore business possibilities in this highly potential market.

This premier event brings together domestic and international publishers, booksellers, librarians and institutional customers. The event provides an excellent opportunity to readers to view and purchase the best Pakistan & International books and publications and also offers an opportunity to writers to interact with publishers. The positive reception to this event over the recent years has increased the number of participants & attendees to make it the largest Book Fair event in the history of Pakistan each year. 

The KIBF is a non-profit venture organized annually, by a team of devoted committee members actively involved in the books & publishing industry of Pakistan.
