About the Single Price for Books Act

The Single Price for Books Act, adopted in January 2014 and put into force after a transitional period on 26th August 2014, is intended to regulate the activity of the book market by ensuring price stability and predictability of book sales for a limited duration.

The Portal Single Price for Books

For the purpose of the implementation of the Single Price for Books Act in Slovenia the Slovenian Book Agency set up a portal for monitoring the single price of books, which comprises a publically accessible database of books under the Single Price for Books Act and an online interface allowing Slovenian publishers to enter information on books into the database.

The database offers information on the author, title and publisher of the book, COBISS and ISBN numbers and information on the price, the beginning and end of the period for which the single price is valid.
