Yellow pages for exporting,
selling rights and importing
In recognition of the growing importance of
internationalisation, and to encourage knowl-
edge and exchange of publishing and literary
products abroad, this year we have again
updated and expanded the previous edition
of Italian Books Abroad (as we have done
since 2008).
We believe that it is an instrument which,
although basic, is a useful means of promot-
ing publishing relations between Italy and the
rest of the world, since it contains addresses
and reference details for both Italian and
foreign operators concerned with the import/
export of books and publishing rights.
Finding out the identity of professionals in
the sector is a good starting point for an
understanding of the market and its potential,
and also for knowledge of who to turn to in
order to obtain Italian language books to dis-
tribute in one’s own country.
The need for a tool like this is even greater
now that Italian titles see a strong increase
in popularity, reaching a public that’s getting
continously wider and receiving critical atten-
tion from various media.
The criteria used for the selection of names
are the same as in previous years.
For Italy the list does not include publishers
who sell their own books directly abroad.
For foreign countries, alongside importers
and distributors, we have also considered
bookshops and bookshop chains which claim
to have a wide assortment of Italian books
and some of the Italian bookshops abroad
which are better known and have a good
reputation.
We have corrected the errors and gaps point-
ed out to us from the previous edition. How-
ever, as with any list, there will certainly con-
tinue to be gaps and inaccuracies. We take
this opportunity to apologise to any companies
which have «escaped» our attention and we
invite readers to send us corrections and
additions for the next update.
