The Age
Not a single e-reader, kindle or iPad made an appearance at the Clunes Booktown Festival.
If ever one needed reassurance that books were still a sought-after commodity, then the thousands who descended on Clunes to read, smell and touch their new book treasures should put the techno-cautious mind to rest.
Clunes Booktown Festival is in its seventh year and its popularity is steadily growing. In 2007 the festival exceeded the town’s expectations by attracting about 6000 people, now an estimated 20,000 are anticipated to attend the two-day event.
