AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Reading Culture: Pakistan’s Punjab University Book Fair sold more than 230,000 books, with organisers crediting affordable prices and strong interest from young readers. Publishing & AI: Reports say Anthropic targeted Korean, Japanese and Taiwanese books for AI training, as Korean publishers demand consent and payment. Google is also seeking Korean book deals as copyright rules stall; separately, a Harry Potter publisher won $21 million from Anthropic, with proceeds to be shared with authors. Education: Japan is drafting guidelines that favour a mix of paper and digital textbooks. Book Fairs: Sharjah International Book Fair plans 1,500 events with 2,673 publishers and exhibitors from 124 countries. New Releases: HarperCollins has previewed Sonia Gandhi’s memoir, Belonging, ahead of its November 10 launch.
