Meanwhile in Paris - ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF BOOKS IN SAINT-GERMAIN DES PRÉS

The International Rare Book & Autograph Fair at the Grand Palais will be open to visitors today until 8 pm. Visitors still have the opportunity to get free entrance to the fair and to support literacy by making a donation to UNESCO's Forest Whitaker Peace and Development Initiative.

What about having a nice walk down the river Seine to Saint-Germain des Prés and visiting the amazing antiquarian bookshops over there?  If you go there on a bibliophile adventure, don't miss the Librairie Michel Bouvier - one of the most exquisite bookshops in Paris with a superb selection of fine books. For UNESCO World Book and Copyright Day Michel Bouvier has decorated ILAB Pop Up Windows to show his support of UNESCO's literacy projects.

Be there! Enjoy the treasures and help fill the Empty Bookcases for the children in South Sudan!
