The CANIEM Foreign Rights Catalogue concentrates key information about the works published by our affiliates that are available for commercialization, translation and adaptations to other formats in Mexico and abroad. This catalogue gathers strategic information that allows us to maximize the reach and impact of the titles, while enhancing their marketing and expansion opportunities in the global market.

The CANIEM Foreign Rights Catalogue is updated every year and is part of our promotional work at various international events such as the Bologna Children's Book Fair, the London Book Fair, the Frankfurt Book Fair and the Guadalajara International Book Fair, among others.

  • Title promotion: The Foreign Rights Sales Catalogue allows you to present your titles to potential interested parties such as other publishers, literary agents, film and television producers, etc.
  • Market Expansion: It raises awareness of your titles in new geographic and linguistic markets by allowing foreign publishers to evaluate and acquire the rights to translate and publish the books in their respective languages and regions.
  • Revenue increase: The sale of royalties is a source of additional revenue for your publishing house. Rights sales can include translation, film adaptation, audiobooks, digital rights, among others.
  • Strengthening of commercial relationships: It helps to establish and maintain commercial relationships with international partners, which is greatly important for the growth and diversification of the publishing offer.
  • Display and recognition of authors: It allows your authors to gain greater international exposure, strengthening their recognition and bringing their work to a global audience.
  • Efficiency in negotiations: This tool simplifies negotiations by providing key and strategic information on titles for sale, such as synopsis, thematic classification, author, publisher's name, format, size, etc.
  • Participation in book fairs and other specialized events: It is a tool for your participation in international book fairs and specialized forums for publishing professionals. In the CANIEM Foreign Rights Catalogue, titles are presented to many potential buyers in an organized and professional manner.
  • Access to new publishing opportunities: Sometimes, a certain book’s rights can be purchased to be adapted to other formats, such as theatrical adaptations, comics, TV series, etc., generating new opportunities for content distribution and monetization.

When your titles and works are included in the Catalogue, you benefit directly from the diffusion and promotion that CANIEM carries out within the international book fairs it attends, which are also visited by various players of the publishing industry, from literary agents to publishers looking to expand their offering.

  • Inserting your catalogue segement link in an e-mail signature to display the titles available for rights sale.
  • Using it as a promotion in social media, e-newsletters and other communication channels used by the company.
  • Presenting it at the stand on a book fair, either on tablet or on screen. A QR code that directs interested parties to the catalogue can also be included. To get the maximum benefit, titles must be kept updated and all the information requested should be filled in.
