Sponsored by The State-Journal, and co-sponsored by
the Kentucky Department
for Libraries and Archives, Joseph-Beth
Booksellers, UPK and the Kentucky
Humanities Council, the Kentucky Book Fair attracts thousands of avid
readers and patrons from across the country. Founded in 1981, the Kentucky Book
Fair is the state's leading literary event. Since its inception, the fair has
recognized outstanding Kentucky authors and editors. The largest and oldest
event of its kind in the state, the Kentucky Book Fair has three key goals:
· to honor the profession of
writing in the form of a one-day celebration;
· to provide a format for
authors to meet their reading public; and
· to raise money through the
sale of books and donate all profits to mostly school and public libraries
throughout Kentucky
The proceeds benefit libraries
that have few resources to expand collections, replace old books or fund
literacy-related causes. Those contributions to date total more than $375,000.
