The Swedish-English Literary Translators’ Association

Bringing Swedish Literature into English

SELTA is a professional association of translators from Swedish into English. We run networking and professional development events and maintain a register of translators. We engage with English-language and Swedish-language publishers, as well as relevant cultural and literary organisations in Britain, Sweden and Finland, in our promotion of Swedish and Finland-Swedish books in English.
