Every year, the International Rights Center attracts publishers, agents, scouts, screen agents, producers and other rights professionals.
With more than 2,000 publishing exhibitors attending BookExpo America, it's an excellent opportunity for those buying and selling literary rights to sit down and meet. Most rights activity occurs through preset appointments, so the following guide is useful to book meetings in advance and to locate rights people at the show. The International Rights Center is co-sponsored by the Association of Authors' Representatives and Publishers Weekly. For more information or additional listings, please visit www.bookexpoamerica.com.
