- This edition centers on children’s and young adult literature (LIJ) with school‑focused activities run by the Dirección General de Escuelas and LIJ specialists to reach younger readers.

- The provincial Subsecretaría of Culture said the 600,000‑peso stand canon paid by each bookseller or publisher will be delivered in copies to replenish the Biblioteca Pública General San Martín, with financial backing from the Consejo Federal de Inversiones.
- More than 200 Mendoza authors share the bill with national guests such as Hernán Casciari, Felipe Pigna and Martín Kohan, and the mix of talks and concerts is intended to widen public access to books and strengthen local library and school collections.
