AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

AI and Authors’ Rights: The Harry Potter publisher won $21 million from Anthropic and plans to share the proceeds with authors, a closely watched copyright dispute with implications for the wider book industry. Book Bans: U.S. book bans reached a record high, while Texas public schools reported more than 8,000 bans in the 2025–26 school year. A Utah author whose novel was banned from public schools is set to headline the first Salt Lake Book Festival. Independent Bookstores: Philadelphia’s Wooden Shoe Books marked 50 years, and a traveling bookstore brought its collection to Drexel University.
