    Books connect the world

    The cultural excitement and the quality
    of the offer represented by Italian
    independent publishers has allowed them
    to reach a share of about 50% in the book
    market.
    The new, decisive Law for Books
    and Reading - that safeguards both
    bibliodiversity and the market - which the
    Senate unanimously approved in 2020,
    after ten years of hard work, is due to the
    determination of independent publishers
    and booksellers Associations, together
    with a Cultural Ministry sensitive to the
    needs of one of culture's economic pillars.
    ADEI – Associazione degli Editori
    indipendenti italiani i.e. Association of
    Italian Independent Publishers – represents
    about 250 independent publishers, some
    Regional Associations, and is the promoter
    of an important independent book fair that
    takes place both in Milan and Genoa.
    This first international catalogue,
    published for the 2022 Frankfurter
    Buchmesse, is a further signal of the
    liveliness and variety of ideas, projects,
    and colours of the Italian 'indie' World.
    It marks an important step towards
    openness to debate not only among
    publishers, but also with book
    organizations, associations, and book
    events all around the World.
    In such a delicate moment for
    international relations, we think this
    represents both a concrete instrument
    and a positive emblem of cultural
    exchange and friendship.
