Najaf International Book Fair · 4th edition

From 12 to 23 February 2025 the fourth Najaf International Book Fair was held, opened by the President of the Republic, Abdul Latif Jamal Rashid, in the presence of officials and cultural and academic figures.

Seventeen countries took part, with dozens of Arab and foreign publishers across intellectual, cultural and scientific fields. The fair held four talks every day.

The edition launched the Iqra (Read) initiative, which handed out free vouchers to encourage reading, and the Wafid app, which made it easier to find books, publishers and purchase vouchers.
