About 400 mainland publishing firms will bring 375,000 books from 150,000 categories to the fair while 210 publishing firms from Taiwan will showcase 90,000 books from 30,000 categories. The total value of the books is estimated to be 25 million yuan, covering subjects including fiction, history, law, medicine and tourism.

For the first time magazines from both sides of the strait will be exhibited at the fair, with Taiwan set to display nearly 1,000 magazines by 200 publishers. Fujian will also organize magazines in the province to attend the fair.

The Cross-Strait Book Fair has been held annually since 2005, with Xiamen and Taiwan taking turns as the host city each year.
