Olaf Norli

Olaf Norli

Olaf Olsen Norli (18 August 1861 - 21 January 1959) was a Norwegian bookseller and publisher.

He was born in Kristiania. He started his own company in 1890, a combined bookstore and publishing house. He chaired the Norwegian Booksellers Association from 1924 to 1927.[1]

Olaf Norli was known for publishing several titles in Nynorsk, and published the magazine Frå bygd og by between 1913 and 1932.[1]

His bookstore and publishing house was eventually sold, but the name resurfaced around 2000, when Norli Gruppen was established.
