Welcome to the
Cyprus Publishers Association
The Cyprus Publishers Association was founded in March 2023, after constant and persistent efforts by a group of Cypriot publishers to create a collective body. The association aims to upgrade Cypriot publications to high-quality finished products and foster a common vision and cooperation to address all relevant issues, from book production to distribution. Many publishers have become founding members of the Association, and it is hoped that its presence will make an important contribution to Cyprus’s culture.
Despite being a relatively young body, the Association has already managed to secure Cyprus’s participation at the Frankfurt International Book Fair in October 2023, as well as at the Thessaloniki International Book Fair and Bologna Children’s Book Fair, with a national stand. Simultaneously, efforts are being made to achieve participation in other international book fairs and many more events.
The founding members of the Association’s board are:
- Elias Epiphaniou Publications
- Teleia Publications
- Evgnomon Publications
- Book Hour Publications
- Armida Publications
- C. Epiphaniou Publications
Cyprus’s book market is growing, with increasing numbers of books published yearly in various subjects, such as children’s books, local history, and culture.
Cyprus’s Deputy Ministry of Culture offers a grant-aid scheme for the translation of works by Cypriot literary writers from Greek into foreign languages.
