WHERE TO ORDER SWEDISH BOOKS

When Akademibokhandeln sold its Internet service to Bokus, it was no longer possible for Swedish readers in North-America to order Swedish books from them via the Internet. Laura Wideburg wrote a letter to the editor of Svenska Bokhandel, the magazine for Swedish booksellers, and asked “Vem vill satsa på oss?” As a result a number of booksellers let us know that they were eager to sell Swedish books to the Swedish-North American market.

Here they are in the order in which we received their information:

Sunday Books

Maria Frendel informed us that they are happy to sell and ship books abroad. Members of Riksföreningen Sverigekontakt receive free shipping on all orders.

Hedengrens Bokhandel

Lars-Göran Eriksson said that Hedengrens in Stockholm is eager to reach the North American market. They also carry books in other foreign languages.

Akademibokhandeln

Although it is true that Bokus, to whom they sold their Internet business, does not yet do overseas orders, Henrik Mattsson says that they hope that this will be changed sometime after Midsommar. In the meanwhile, orders for books can be taken directly.
