It has developed from an in-house printing service producing small leaflets and simple language resources to a professional publishing house with a rich catalogue of books including: Language dictionaries and learner's guides Indigenous art Oral histories relating to land and culture Biographies Books for children and young adults Fiction Poetry and short stories Natural histories IAD Press is committed to ensuring all publications represent an authentic Indigenous perspective. To ensure this cultural integrity we have a highly consultative process with authors and contributors. We also ask for a letter from the community or elders from the language group represented in each book to ensure that it has full community support and is an authentic voice from that language group. All book project proposals are also taken to our Aboriginal Board of Management for approval to ensure the correct community consultation protocols have been followed, before we begin the publishing process.
