Azil Bookshop was established in October 2003 by the Scientific Research Centre (ZRC SAZU), Slovene Academy of Science and Arts. It is the first Slovene bookshop to specialise in theory and reference books related to the social sciences and the humanities, especially sociology, philosophy, archaeology, psychology, anthropology and the arts. It offers numerous books published by international publishing houses (including many American, British, German, French, Serbian and Croatian ones), along with titles published by Slovene publishing houses specialising in the humanities and by several publishing houses of universities and research institutions. It also offers a curated selection of high-quality literary fiction in Slovenian and other languages.
