The ALTA Guides to Literary Translation

The ALTA Guides to Literary Translation is an ongoing series of brochures addressing specific issues of interest to literary translators at all stages in their careers. Each Guide provides practical information, personal advice from established translators, and lists of useful references and on-line resources. As each Guide becomes available, it can be read or downloaded from the ALTA website.  

In 2000, ALTA published the first brochure in the series, "Breaking into Print."

In 2001, ALTA published the second brochure in the series, "The Book-Length Translation Proposal."

In 2002, ALTA published the third brochure in the series,  "Promoting Your Literary Translation."

In 2003, ALTA published the fourth brochure in the series, "Getting Started in Literary Translation."
