More than 520 exhibitors from 16 countries will join the 22nd Hong Kong Book Fair from July 20-26.

The event is organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The fair, whose theme is 'Reading the World, Reading as Self-Discovery', will feature books of various genres, including literature, history, religion, children's books and poetry.

One of the highlights will be the e-Book & e-Learning Resources Exhibition. The digital zone will include a Future Book Store, which will allow participants to customise their own books. Readers will also be able to download parts of some books onto their smartphones.
