Give $100, Get a Book, Join the March

World Literature Today is a passport to global culture for more than 2.2 million readers annually. The goal of our March to 100 campaign is to create a $4 million endowment by the end of WLT’s centennial year (2026), which will ensure that this important work continues, uninterrupted, for the next 100 years.

To kick off the centennial, in February 2026 Restless Books will publish the landmark anthology A Compass on the Navigable Sea: 100 Years of World Literature. Compiled by World Literature Today editor in chief Daniel Simon, with a foreword by Pico Iyer, the book will feature more than 130 essays, book reviews, interviews, poems, and stories that have appeared in the magazine since its founding. From December 15, 2025, to February 15, 2026, any individual who donates $100 or more to WLT will receive a signed copy of the book (US addressees only).

Your tax-deductible gift, no matter the size, ensures WLT’s future. Such generosity helps WLT achieve its mission of serving the international, state, and university communities by achieving excellence as a literary publication, a sponsor of literary prizes, and a cultural center for students.

By supporting the magazine, you’ll also help us pay the writers, translators, poets, artists, and photographers in the magazine’s pages. And you will help WLT by fostering its work as a humanities center on the University of Oklahoma campus and a cultural academy for schools around the state.

Help WLT reach its goal! For more information and to donate, visit worldlit.org/donate.
