EIP (Independent Publishers of Peru) is a not-for-profit association whose mission is to represent and integrate Peruvian independent publishers’ interests into public or private, national or international institutions. They work towards developing commercial aspects as well as training and professionalization of their members, and their primary objective is to support local publishing growth. EIP represents a large part of the national outputs and unlike other associations, only counts in its ranks publishers who publish and promote books by Peruvian authors according to principles based on respect and strengthening bibliodiversity, which in turn safeguards writers’ creation and diversity of thoughts against any attempts to standardize culture, or impose a unique worldview.

The Alianza de Editoriales Mexicanas Independientes (AEMI) was founded in November 2004. Since then, AEMI has been actively involved in promoting reading and independent Mexican publishing houses. These publishing houses have the particularity of being committed to the publication of risky works that are not dictated by commercial interests.
AEMI is a member of the International Alliance of Independent Publishers, which has enabled it to transcend national borders.
