The 28th Minsk International Book Fair (MIBF) began its work on February 18.
At the book festival, the National Library of Belarus presented to the viewer the exhibition “New House – New Perspectives. 2006–2021 Publishing Projects". The exhibition is timed to the 15th anniversary of the relocation of the Library to a modern building.
During 15 years of operation at the new address, such projects have been implemented as facsimile reproductions of the Sluck, Polack, Turau Gospels, "The Life of Saint Efrasinia of Polack" and the Barkulab Chronicle, "The Baculus of Rule" by Simiaon of Polack, the world's first Primer, the entire famous heritage of Francysk Skaryna.
All these publications became winners and laureates of the national competition "The Art of the Book" and the international competition of the same name among the CIS countries. The exhibition also features scientific publications (including a number of publications dedicated to the 500th anniversary of Belarusian book printing, the military-patriotic publishing project “Partisan Archives”, etc.), reprint, electronic editions, postcards, etc.
