With Passion for the Philippines

AKLAT. AKLAT? AKLAT! – BOOKS. BOOKS? BOOKS!

What could be better than celebrating the world of books together? For example, with a journey of discovery through Philippine literature, which is this year's guest of honor at the Frankfurt Book Fair under the motto “The Imagination peoples the Air". We are very much looking forward to the program and the many new publications, and wish all visitors lots of fun discovering them!

An overview of the current titles is also available as a separate preview on our new releases platform VLB-TIX.

PS: Our fantastic guest country postcard is available free of charge at our stand – and, of course, at the information desk for the Guest of Honor 2025 in Forum 1. Be quick, it's worth it!

With Passion for Self-Publishing

Wether for your assortment design, your program planning or for your own reading supplies: with our Livro joint exhibition (Hall 3.0, C 97) and the Livro exhibition catalogue, you will find orientation in the extensive range of books from small and independent publishers.

Let yourself be inspired.

With Passion for Sustainability

© Stefan Höning

Whether it's about daily shopping, product selection, or the future of your business, sustainability is no longer a marginal issue, but a central task for the entire book trade.

An important step in this direction is the conscious use of printed previews.
By adding your bookstore to our list and making your position on printed previews visible, you are sending a clear message: for a responsible, future-oriented book trade that will enable future generations to enjoy a diverse book culture.

We would be happy to engage in dialogue with you at our events: In the MVB exchange for bookstores and VLB-TIX and in the free webinar climate-conscious book retailing, we give you concrete ideas on how ecological action and economic efficiency can go hand in hand.

Play an active role in shaping change!

With Passion for Product Groups

Romantasy, sick lit, or new adult—these genres are currently conquering the bestseller lists and captivating a growing readership. For publishers and bookstores, this means fresh momentum, additional sales, and new customers.

Starting this year, new releases and backlist titles from the strong segments of “New Adult,” “Young Adult,” and “Entertainment” (main target group: female readers) can be classified even more precisely.

The appropriate codes for product groups and sub-genres have been available in the Directory of Available Books (VLB) since the beginning of March. All details can be found in a compact form on the VLB website.

In this preview, publishers recommend their products for these new product groups. Click through the preview to see the main titles.

Enjoy discovering them!

With Passion for Metadata

Everything constantly changing?! – Shore in sight instead of shipwreck. This is the motto of this year’s MVB Data Summit. At our online conference for successful metadata management, everything in 2025 will revolve around orientation.

Based on ideas, best practice examples, and new business models, participants will discuss current issues in order to set the right course when working with metadata. We look forward to seeing you there – ship ahoy!
