AGP Executive Report

Last update: 1 hours ago

Audiobooks: YouTube is reportedly in talks with publishers to bring audiobooks to its Premium service as early as 2027, setting up a new challenge to Audible and Spotify. AI and Copyright: Reports that Anthropic downloaded Han Kang’s books without permission are intensifying scrutiny of how AI companies use copyrighted works; a separate debate asks whether current law can identify authorship when AI does the work. Book Access: The University of Chicago Library is working to collect more than 1,500 banned books, as a new report says Texas public schools recorded more than 8,000 book bans in 2025–26. Publishing and Censorship: Sally Rooney’s books are being withdrawn from U.K. bookstores by her publisher over her support for Palestine Action, renewing debate over the reach of political pressure on writers and publishers.
