Ny norsk skjønnlitteratur for vaksne – automatisk innkjøpsordning

This scheme provides purchases of new Norwegian fiction for adults distributed to public libraries nationwide on publication date. The scheme aims to ensure "ny norsk skjønnlitteratur for vaksne blir skapt, gitt ut, spreidd og lesen" (new Norwegian fiction for adults is created, published, distributed and read).

Eligible applicants are "forlag og andre utgivarar med norsk organisasjonsnummer" (publishers and other publishers with a Norwegian organisation number). The author and publisher must have a contract in place before application. The instrument is described as "innkjøp" (purchase/automatic purchase order).

Payment tables for 2026 specify per-genre disbursement amounts (e.g., for prose: author 102,000 NOK + publisher 175,000 NOK); publisher payments may be reduced by up to 15% maximum if registrations exceed budget. No total annual budget pot or minimum/maximum application amounts per applicant are stated on the page. Six registration rounds run annually aligned to publication periods, with the deadline for July–August publications being 15 June at 13:00.

Applications are submitted via https://tilskudd.kulturdirektoratet.no/utlysning/61018693-5A1A-44D9-B32E-093A43AF1BF7. Technical support is available at support@kulturdirektoratet.no. The page was last updated ("sist endret") 22 May 2026.
