print run) and the Internet http://www.frankfurt-book-fair.com/virtual.
The Frankfurt Rights Catalogue is the core of "Frankfurt
Virtual" and provides electronic links to the Directory of Exhibitors.
This is the "Who's Who" of exhibitors at the Book Fair, and

for rights contacts. It also shows the Hall Plan.
