je skupna akcija Društva slovenskih pisateljev, Slovenskega centra PEN in Centra za slovensko književnost. Sredstva za delovanje prejema od Ministrstva za kulturo republike Slovenije in iz drugih virov. Namen Trubarjevega sklada je podpora izdajanja slovenske literature v prevodih.

Prošnja za sredstva

Tuji založnik lahko zaprosi za podporo pri izdaji leposlovnega dela slovenskega avtorja v svojem jeziku, ki v tem jeziku še ni izšlo pred letom prijave. Trubarjev sklad prispeva največ 50% stroškov tiska. Prevodov Sklad ne podpira; za podporo lahko prevajalci zaprosijo neposredno Ministrstvo za kulturo.

V prošnji mora založnik navesti, katero delo bo izdal, ime avtorja, ime prevajalca, obseg v straneh in naklado knjige ter načrtovani rok izida. Upravnemu odboru sklada predstavi vse stroške izdaje knjige: avtorske pravice, honorarji, grafična priprava besedila, papir, tiskanje, vezava.  

Prednost imajo knjige še živečih avtorjev, ki so se že uveljavili v Sloveniji, vendar bo upravni odbor upošteval vse prijave za knjige proze, poezije, dramatike in leposlovne esejistike, ki so bile napisane v slovenščini.

Upravni odbor svetuje, naj bo prošnja napisana v slovenščini ali v angleščini in poslana po pošti.

 The Trubar Foundation is a joint venture of Slovene Writers' Association, Slovenian PEN and the Center for Slovenian Literature. The financial means for its activities are provided by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia and by other sources. The aim of the Trubar Foundation is to subsidy publications of Slovenian literature in translation.

 

Application for funds

 

Foreign publishers are required to provide the entire edition for which they received financial support from the Trubar Foundation with an inscription stating that the book was published with the aid of the Foundation. The inscription should read as follows:

This book was published with the support of Trubar Foundation at the Slovene Writers' Association, Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Ta knjiga je bila objavljena s pomočjo Trubarjevega sklada pri Društvu slovenskih pisateljev, Ljubljana, Slovenija.

English language can be replaced by the language of the edition.

Immediately upon publication the publisher should send to the Foundation ten (10) copies of the book, along with two original copies of an invoice (signed and sealed) in exactly the approved amount. The Trubar Foundation will forward a certain number of copies to the National and University Library in Ljubljana.

Time limits

 

The Board consists of seven equal members including the Presidents of Slovene Writers' Association and Slovene PEN. They convene at least twice a year, usually in March and October. Therefore, applications received by the end of February and the end of September will promptly be dealt with. The book selected by the Board is to be published in twelve months following the date of the written notice informing the publisher of the Board’s decision. Should the publisher publish the book after the expired term, a new application is required.

 

 

Financial terms

 

Foreign publishers can apply for subsidies to publish translations of Slovenian authors in their native languages. Works that have not been published in the target language before the year of application are taken into cosideration. Trubar Foundation contributes up to 50% of printing costs. It does not subsidy translation; translators can apply for translation grants directly to the Slovenian Ministry of Culture.

The application should include the title of the book, name of the author, name of the translator, length in pages, number of copies and the planned date of publication. Publishers should also prepare a financial estimate of all costs associated with publication: copyright, royalties, layout, paper, printing, binding. The application should be accompanied by the publisher's latest catalogue.

Priority is given to the works of living authors who are already established in Slovenia. However, the Board will take all applications for works of fiction, poetry, drama, or literary essays into account, as long as they are originally written in Slovenian.

The Board advises applicants to submit their applications in Slovenian or English, in written form, by regular mail.
