WELCOME TO THE PENGUIN CANADA RIGHTS WEBSITE
We hope that our website will be an invaluable resource for all of your rights enquiries. We'll keep you up to date on our recent acquisitions, deal news and highlights here on our home page.
For detailed information about our latest titles and to find out whether rights in your territory are still available, simply click on the Adult or Young Reader's links. We've also posted our latest rights guides here in downloadable PDF format. As part of our corporate green initiatives, we'll only be printing a small quantity of rights guides to take with us to the London and Frankfurt book fairs, so we'll be directing you to the electronic version going forward.
This year, Lisa Rundle and Penguin Canada Publisher and President David Davidar attended the Frankfurt Book Fair. The atmosphere was very positive and we're looking forward to many fruitful collaborations.
Please enjoy your visit, and check in with us often for our latest news.
