Publications
Avataq is proud to champion Inuit language, culture, and heritage through a rich array of publications. Since our founding in 1980, we have produced diverse materials that preserve and promote the stories, traditions, and knowledge of Nunavik’s Inuit, ensuring Inuktitut thrives for future generations.
Avataq’s Publications service aims to produce quality books in Inuktitut for the benefit of the Nunavimmiut.
Traditional knowledge, Inuit authors, and the dissemination of scientific knowledge receive priority. Our publications also aim to improve the non-Inuit population’s knowledge of the territory of Nunavik and the culture of its inhabitants.
Our catalogue.
Our catalogue includes books on archaeology, history, anthropology, and sociology as well as short stories, novels, biographies, dictionaries, children’s books, and educational materials. It also contains the collection of Tumivut, the cultural magazine of the Nunavik Inuit, published between 1991 and 2000 and recently relaunched, as well as the summaries of Nunavik Elders Conferences held since 1981. The catalogue is not limited to Avataq publications; we also distribute books on which we have collaborated over the years.
