Slovenian Book Agency is a public agency, established in 2008, whose aim is to handle literature in a coordinated and uniform way. It combines concern for artistic and scientific literature (including digital media) and regulates the path from author to publication and distribution of a book.

The agency's activities include:

  • providing funding for projects in the field of literature,
  • promoting Slovene literature and authors,
  • encouraging publication of quality literary and scientific works,
  • providing stipends and other means of support for authors,
  • promoting international cooperation in the field of literature (especially translations of Slovene books and international promotion thereof),
  • ensuring that authors get compensation for library loans of their books,
  • supporting a development of a bookstore network and increasing the availability of books,
  • providing conditions for a development of reading culture.

When Ljubljana has the title of World Book Capital (from April 2010 to April 2011), the Slovenian Book Agency will co-finance a publishing congress, a literary festival and special prize editions of quality books. The agency is also involved in the project Rastem s knjigo ('I grow with a book'), which promotes reading among children and (in cooperation with the government and libraries) provides a free book for every 7th grade pupil.
