Taiwan's electronics hardware industry has made a foray into publishing at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2010, with the 'Taiwan Pavilion' including an e-reader section for the first time. Electronics manufacturers and digital publishers from Taiwan including Qisda, Moker Information Technology, and Newtonkids shared the results of applying e-books to digital learning at the world's biggest book fair. 'As long as technology cooperates with the culture and creative industry, there will be a lot of room for e-publishing in Taiwan to grow, ' said Wang Jung-wen, chairman of the Taiwan Book Fair Foundation. Wang, who heads local publisher YLib, said most e-readers around the world are made by Taiwanese producers, which suggests the country has a favorable environment to develop the device. Qisda Vice President Alpha Tsai, who led a group to promote his company at the event from Oct. 6- 10, said publishing had its cultural and linguistic boundaries, making it necessary for e-reader device makers to work with publishers in different countries to open local markets. Taiwan-based personal computer vendor Acer Inc. will launch its e-reader sales through German book service provider Libri in October, according to an announcement last month. 'E-books will probably have two major potential reader groups in the future. People over 40 years old who are used to reading paper books are likely to buy text e-readers with e-paper display,' Tsai said. On the other hand, 'young people who have grown up with multimedia would rather choose devices with interactive content, ' he said. This year, the exhibition attracted 7,533 exhibitors from 111 countries, with over 309,000 books on display, according to statistics from fair organizers.
