The Basics of PubMatch.com:

With the simplicity to search for publishers looking for new titles, or agents seeking new authors, you will find yourself engaged in no time and on the right track to success.

An internal messaging system permits member to member messaging with the ability to dictate which type of member can contact you by controlling your privacy settings. Adding titles to your profile exposes your talent whilst drawing attention to those you would like to hear from.

By indicating which international book shows you will be taking part in, you can send these members an online rights catalogue that you have created prior to the show to initialize the rights transaction process.

With countless other features PubMatch.com is the platform authors have been longing for!

Frankfurt Book Fair

The biggest book and media fair in the world, attracting roughly 7500 exhibitors from over 100 countries. As the whole industry gathers, business opportunities and networking activities are endless.

London Book Fair

A global market place for negotiating sales, distribution and content rights across print, audio, TV, film and digital platforms. The 2014 London Book Fair saw over 24,000 attendees from 124 countries congregate to celebrate books and negotiate potential business.

US Book Show

Booksellers, librarians, readers, and publishers converge at PW’s (Publishers Weekly) US Book Show to network with their fellow professionals, and look for information about upcoming titles. The US Book Show is an online festival that enables its attendees to hear top speakers from the book industry, and discover new books through an online exhibit from various publishers.

Guadalajara Book Fair

This fair is focused on professionals and the public alike. Over nine days, Guadalajara is transformed into the epitome of the book industry, as book enthusiasts congregate to experience one of the renowned international literary festivals.

Beijing International Book Fair

In the past twenty years the BIBF has developed into a prominent feature in the publishing industry. The 2013 fair boasted over 2000 exhibitors from 76 countries, incorporating copyright trade, book trade, cultural events, displays, consultation services and professional networking.

How It Works

• At each show, your book will be assigned a number, either based on its Dewey Decimal subject category at library shows, or based on where it lies alphabetically by publisher at international venues.
• Your book will be displayed along with other titles in a prime position on the exhibit floor.
• Your book will be displayed face-out on the shelf.
• A sticker bearing a unique QR code will be placed on the lower left hand side of the cover of the books that will be displayed. Book fair attendees can then scan the code using the CBE Book Fair Buddy app to learn more about your book. Using the app, they can add your book to their to-be-read list, share that with friends, family, or on their social media pages and even get connected to a variety of reseller sites where they can purchase your book.
