The BEA's International Rights Center is a hotbed of agents, publishers, scouts, producers and screen agents all hoping to buy or sell what everyone hopes is the next Da Vinci Code or Marley & Me.
Almost all the rights activities happen here through preset appointments, so use the following guide to book meetings in advance. The International Rights Center is co-sponsored by the Association of Authors' Representatives and Publishers Weekly. For more information or additional listings, visit www.bookexpoamerica.com.
