Do you mean a literary agency ? If so that is a person / firm who take on new authors and trys to get their work published , just like a musical agent does for new musical acts .
Other wise 'agency' has the same meaning as anywhere else.

What are 'Literary Theory' and 'Influence Theory' |

Question Author

Please give us a sentence in which 'agency' is used as you have found it.

Ye Gods ! Would it help if you re read the passage(s) using substitute words ? Such as 'enabler' , or 'causation' ? Go through dictionary for synonyms of agency then substitute as you read. Eventually the fog may clear.....
