VIGEVAGEKNJIGE

VigeVageKnjige is an independent Slovenian publishing house specialised in comic books for children and graphic novels for young adults and adults. Created in 2012 and registered in October 2013 we published our first book at the end of 2014. Nine years later, by the end of 2023, we will put out 67 titles several of which are sold out and reprinted.

From the beginning we have been working successfully with foundations from abroad (Norla, Traduki, Kulturradet, Institut français de Slovénie), and in 2018, for the first time, we acquired partial co-financing from the Slovenian Book Agency, which since grew into a 4-year support scheme we are a part of. Each year, we publish between 10 and 14 new titles.

The basic goal of VigeVageKnjige is threefold: (1) publishing books, (2) improving reading literacy among younger and older population in Slovenia and (3) raising awareness of a graphic novel as a literary genre; the latter requires broadening of reader base in Slovenia.
