Free and comprehensive promotion for your books
Deadline: June 8
Now published once a year, the new Rights Canada catalogue format allows us to maintain and improve the quality of the catalogue, as well as encourage greater distribution of your books abroad.
Titles registered in the Rights Canada catalogue benefit from increased visibility through our partnership with IPR License, an online rights platform. Since IPR License was first launched in 2012, titles have been viewed in 201 countries across 168 languages. This partnership will enable us to promote more than 275 titles in a catalogue that will be distributed ahead of international fairs.
In addition to being promoted on the Livres Canada Books website and social media, titles in Rights Canada catalogue are now featured on the IPR License platform through online accounts for participating publishers.
Publishers who participated in the 2017–2018 Rights Canada catalogue and who are submitting new titles in the 2018–2019 edition, or who wish to resubmit last year’s titles, can keep all titles on their IPR accounts until July 31, 2019. After that date, there will be a 5-title limit, favouring the titles included in the 2019–2020 catalogue.
The accounts of publishers who are not participating in the 2018–2019 edition of Rights Canada will be deactivated after July 31st, 2018 to keep the listings consistent with the Rights Canada catalogue.
For any questions about the new Rights Canada catalogue and IPR License, please email Gabrielle Etcheverry, Manager, Digital Publishing and International Markets, or Brittany Poulin, IPR License Accounts Manager.
Inclusion in the catalogue is free of charge and space will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Our catalogue will include up to 285 titles and the number of titles a publisher can include in the catalogue corresponds to the number of titles published over the course of the year.
