Literary agents play a crucial role in representing authors and their work to publishers, negotiating book deals, and ensuring that their clients receive fair contracts and royalties. They help authors navigate the publishing industry and connect them with the right publishers for their work. Publishers, on the other hand, play a key role in the dissemination and promotion of literature by selecting manuscripts for publication, editing and producing books, marketing them to readers, and distributing them through various channels. Publishers also provide authors with editorial support, design expertise, and access to distribution networks, helping to bring their work to a wider audience. Together, literary agents and publishers work to support authors and promote literature to readers around the world.
