11th Razavi Book of the Year Jurys Statement.

The jury of the 11th International Festival of Razavi Book of the Year issued a statement at the closing ceremony of the festival.


In a part of this statement we can read, “A book bears the source of all peace, to read of which Ayatollah Khamenei, our wise Supreme Leader has recommended, and the Grand Custodian of this knowledge-spreading establishment has guidelines to produce content tailored to the missions in this capacious endowment vastness and for meeting the intellectual and cultural needs of the youth.” 
The jury, enjoying ten year experience and with a profound view of the diversity of subjects, themes and audiences of Razavi culture and conduct, judged more than 320 works submitted to the festival secretariat and tried to realize its ultimate choice with scientific obsession, independence, accountability, systematically and with respect for collective wisdom. The innovation and novelty of the subject, scientific orientation, observance of the ethics of research, the use of reliable sources, the use of artistic and technical figures of speech and the like, have been among the selection criteria in at least six stages of this responsibility.
It is worth noting that the closing ceremony of the 11th International Razavi Book of the Year Festival was held at the conferences hall of Astan Quds Razavi Research Foundation and it was organized by the Organization of Libraries, Museums and Documents Center of Astan Quds Razavi.
