We’re working on the 6th edition of the African Small Publishers Catalogue which will be available in October 2024. We’d love to have you in the catalogue. You can be a sponsor or a listed publisher, you could take out an advert, or pitch an article.
Previous editions listed over 60 small and independent publishers from across Africa, including countries such as Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Morocco, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Togo, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. Countries outside of Africa that list their work in African publishing include Canada, Germany, the UK, the US, Switzerland, and France.
This invaluable reference provides contact details for these publishers but also features articles which offer insights into the challenges and experiences of small publishers in Africa. It serves as a valuable resource for publishers, writers, librarians, booksellers, and NGOs involved in promoting reading, literacy and African Publishing.
For publishers in South Africa, the listing costs R750 and includes a copy of the new catalogue. For publishers in other parts of Africa, the cost is USD50 and includes an electronic edition of the catalogue. This is an excellent opportunity for small and independent African publishers to increase their visibility and potentially discover new opportunities within the industry.
There is also a place for editors, proofreaders, audiobooks, specialist libraries, booksellers, printers, and others who want to be included either in the classified ads or larger adverts.
