AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Istanbul Book Fair: The 11th International Istanbul Arabic Book Fair opens Aug. 15 at Yenikapı, with 300+ publishers from 30+ countries and a target of 120,000 visitors, plus copyright, translation and the TULIA translation project. UAE Reading Push: Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Centre’s sustainable reading campaign topped 62,000+ beneficiaries in H1 2026, expanding community partnerships and its Khazanat Al Kutub display initiative. Library Enrichment: NAASR’s Mardigian Library received 11 Bloomsbury titles from “Armenians in the Modern and Early Modern World,” donated in memory of Vartan Der Matossian. Arabic Audiobooks: A new push for listening to Arabic literature highlights the Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Centre’s Digital Arabic Library (5,000 audiobooks) and the growing pool of English-translated Arabic novels made into audiobooks. Publishing & Culture Funding: Saudi Arabia launched AI incentives for cultural projects, offering non-repayable grants up to SR500,000 to help cultural SMEs adopt AI across creativity, heritage, content, and IP. Controversial Display: A London Arabic bookshop was accused of anti-Semitism after displaying Arabic editions of Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” near a synagogue. Tech & Security Lure: Researchers detailed “AmnesiaStealer,” a macOS Rust-based stealer that hijacks Chromium sessions via a fake GitHub download page. Book Release Spotlight: Nadia Afifi’s “A Fugitive’s History of the Known Universe” uses wormhole-diving sci-fi to tackle how propaganda can distort recovered history.
