Delo is a national daily newspaper in Slovenia. For more than 60 years, Delo has been involved in active co-creation of the Slovenian public space. It covers politics, economics, sports, culture and social events in Slovene. In addition to Slovenia, the paper is available in several Croatian cities and in Belgrade, Serbia. It is based in Ljubljana.[1]
Delo was first published on 1 May 1959 when the newspapers Ljudska pravica ("The People's Right"), which was published since 1934, and Slovenski poročevalec ("The Slovene Reporter"), established in 1938, both the newspapers of the Communist Party of Slovenia, merged.[2]
Among the chief editors were Dušan Benko, Darijan Košir, Peter Jančič, and Uroš Urbas.[3] [4] [5]Delo is published in broadsheet format by media house Delo which also owns newspaper Slovenske novice.[6] It offers content in print and also on web, mobile and tablet platforms. It publishes a mixture of different media, such as the tabloid Slovenske novice, bimonthly cultural newspaper Pogledi and various supplements.
Delo published seven regional editions until 2008 and since then it has published only one national edition.[7]
The circulation of Delo was 90,000 copies in 2003.[1] Its 2007 circulation was 77,000 copies, making it the second most read daily in the country.[8] It was 46,726 copies in the period of July–September 2011.[9]
Delo has the following supplements:[2]
Delo publishes a special Sunday edition, Nedelo (literally, 'idleness' or 'non-work'; Nedelo is a play on words since Nedelja is Slovene for 'Sunday'), in a smaller and bound (stapled) format.
Delo has published The New York Times International Weekly on Fridays since 2009.[2] This eight-page supplement covers English-language articles from The New York Times.[2]
Delo publishes its content on its website www.delo.si, on mobile platform, on iPad and on android.
