Students take time out in our popup book lounge for some thought-provoking reading.

While passing by the Main Library and Jagger Library foyers this week, learn about local authors many of which have won numerous literary awards both locally and internationally. Then visit the display areas to discover a selection of featured books by these and other authors participating in the Open Book Festival in Cape Town and the South African Book Fair this week.

Books by these authors can be found in the UCT Library collections.
