This article provides a descriptive account of the state of contemporary Catalan language publishing. Utilizing a broad array of resources, including scholarly, media and official literature as well as interviews with bookstore owners, librarians and publishers it examines how a once-censored minority language has become central to a thriving regional publishing industry.

The study acknowledges the diversity, complexity and profundity of the Catalan voice while showing how central the publishing industry has become to its expression.
