Easter Holidays in NORLA
Our office is closed for the Easter holidays as of Monday, April 1. We will be back on Tuesday, April 7.
The Netherlands have long been an important market for Norwegian books. In collaboration with the Norwegian embassy in The Hague and translator Paula Stevens, NORLA is organizing for the fourth time an exclusive half-day seminar at the embassy that is designed for a select group of publishers from the Netherlands and Flanders.

The focus for the year’s seminar is crime fiction. The three previous seminar have introduced Norwegian fiction, non-fiction and literature for children and young adults.

We are very pleased that Norway will be the Guest of Honour at the world’s largest children’s and young adult book fair, the Bologna Children’s Book Fair, in 2026. Norwegian children’s and young adult literature is rich in both expression and genres and addresses a wide range of themes that engage readers of all ages. The Guest of Honour programme offers a unique opportunity to showcase this breadth and bring our stories to the world.
NORLA wishes to contribute to the recruitment of more translators of Norwegian literature. We invite interested candidates to apply for a seminar for new translators, to be held in Oslo from 22–25 April 2026.
