Welcome

Welcome to the Collier International website. Our aim is simple - to facilitate business between book publishers worldwide. Books are never more effective than when published in each country by a local publisher, with all the advantages - sales, marketing, PR and translation - that can bring.

We have wide experience and a strong track record, and represent a number of successful publishers and packagers in the UK, Germany, France and the USA. We cover all aspects of rights and co-edition selling.

At this year's London Book Fair we focused on good old paper books. The new digital world is all around us, and we're open to every opportunity. But just now it's dummies and blads and information sheets. It's the time when we follow up - get information out to potential customers. The time for talking has passed!

Getting religion ...

The best way to get religion is by way of the next big book from Delius, Religions of the World. As faiths fragment, and yet are held with as much passion as ever, a compendium that tells us what the world believes is much needed.

Wonderfully illustrated, and the kind of reference book that makes you realise just how inadequate the internet can be when it comes to making knowledge accessible and, in Delius's inimitable way, eyecatching.
