AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

UK Book Sales: Sally Rooney’s books are being withdrawn from UK sale after publisher Faber said paying her proceeds could risk prosecution over her support for Palestine Action; Rooney says she is prepared to accept the consequences. AI and Rights: Google is seeking Korean book deals as copyright legislation stalls, while Korean publishers call for consent and payment for AI training. Separately, Anthropic is to pay $1.5 billion over pirated books, intensifying scrutiny of how AI firms use copyrighted works. Publishing Business: Condé Nast UK profits fell by more than a third, and a sale of the Vogue publisher has been ruled out. Pan Macmillan has taken a stake in independent non-fiction publisher New River Books. Global Fairs: Sharjah International Book Fair is set to host 2,673 publishers and exhibitors from 124 countries, with 1,500 events.
