Displays include over 1600 outstanding books and digital publications from Jilin area publishers. It is a good opportunity for the Jilin pavilion to show the advances made in the 12th Five-Year Plan through books publicizing the characteristics of northeast China, such as "Women Team", a story about a women's traffic police team in Liucheng; "My father Cheng Yanqiu", a story about famous Peking opera master Cheng Yanqiu; "Da Guoyi", a Chinese medicine book; and children's literature in Arabic.
