National Book Council staff will be available to answer any questions you may have, whether you are a book industry professional looking for information about one of our funds or contests, or a visitor to the Festival looking to learn more about the operations of the NBC. There will also be some printed material you can take with you for more information, including the NBC’s recently launched five-year Strategy.

Also present will be UK literary agent Simon Trewin, who will be answering your questions on copyright, contracts and best practices for getting your book into the market.

The meetings will be held on an individual basis, but you must register your attendance in advance.
