| Introducing the Sharjah International Literature Agency (SILA), the first-of-its-kind literary agency in the Arab region. |
|
This Sharjah Book Authority initiative aims to play a vital role in protecting publishers' and writers' rights and to address a lack of access to literary rights in the region that prevent professional writers from having their copyrighted work translated and made available worldwide.
SILA is offering a fresh stimulus to Arabic literary content creation by: Helping international publishers discover young talent Facilitating industry exchange Offering consultative and financial support |
|
Connecting publishers to authors: SILA acts as a sub-agent between local and international publishers and literary agencies to aid the purchase of translation rights
Creating a space for publishers to list authors: Arab publishers can use our platform to drive industry visibility for their authors and titles with rights available
Providing a platform for local and international authors: SILA acts as an online platform where local and international authors can present their copyrighted work for possible translation and right sales |
