Literature Web
Welcome to the new Icelandic Literature Web!
The Reykjavík City Library Literature Web has now merged with the Reykjavík City of Literature website, under this domain, bokmenntaborgin.is or cityofliterature.is. Information on over 130 Icelandic authors, their bios, bibliographies and more can be found under “Authors and Books”; the other headings contain other fine things.
The Reykjavík City Library remains one of the Reykjavík City of Literature's closest collaborators and by our online merging we hope to pool our efforts more effectively.
