AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Sports-Book Season Kickoff: Summer reading gets a sports makeover, from kids’ baseball singalongs like Take Me Out to the Ball Game! to adult history in Baseball’s Shining Season and marathon lore in The Long Run. Rights & Deals: Wilton Square Books snapped up Lucas Fothergill’s Everyone Everywhere: 21 Stories of Mixed Race Britain for a June 4, 2026 release. Luxe Publishing Moment: Print is getting shinier—publishers are leaning into gilded edges, upgraded hardcovers, and “books as décor” to win back shelf space. AI vs Journalism: A Pennsylvania paper says it’s fighting AI-assisted bylines as staff push for control, while broader AI regulation plans reportedly got postponed. Library Policy Fight: Tennessee’s Knox County Schools reversed course and will return Alex Haley’s Roots after a review. Media Industry Loss: Donald E. Newhouse, longtime Advance Publications and AP board leader, died at 96. Big Screen Adaptations: The Louvre jewel heist book Main basse sur le Louvre is headed to film and a documentary series.
