The Slovene Association of Literary Translators was founded in 1953 as a professional union engaged in maintaining a high level of translation work and contacts among translators. The association organises literary and debate evenings, publication presentations, professional meetings, lectures, and conferences. It strives to stimulate international academic exchanges involving translators, and collaborates with other cultural, educational and professional organisations and institutions in Slovenia and abroad. Its publishing activities comprise numerous publications on translation, such as Hieronymus – Journal for Translation.

The association recognizes significant work in translation by presenting different awards and scholarships. In cooperation with the Slovenian Book Agency and several publishing houses, the association bestows the annual Sovre Award on one or two Slovene translators for best translation. To recognize remarkable achievements in translation and life work in the area of mediating Slovene literature to foreign nations the association presents the Lavrin diploma. At the Slovene Book Fair young and budding literary translators are honoured with the Young Translators Award. In order to support and stimulate translation work, it presents a number of residency and working scholarships.

The Slovene Association of Literary Translators is a member of the Conseil Européen des Associations de Traducteurs Littéraires (CEATL).
