There’s a book fair being held this weekend in Wellington to raise funds for a library in Bougainville on behalf of the Bougainville Library Project.
The book fair runs from 10am-4pm on Sat 6 November and Sun 7 November at the Portrait Gallery, Shed 11 , Wellington Waterfront.
The Bougainville Library Project also has a Facebook page.
This book fair sounds like a win all the way round for book lovers and for Bougainville, so I hope that, if you’re in Wellington, you’ll be able to make it along.
Thanks for letting me know. I went today, Saturday, and there's heaps of poetry books. Got quite a few for the Poetry Archive of NZ Aotearoa.
That's good news! I'm planning to go tomorrow – I hope there will still be some books left…
