Summary/Abstract: One of the characteristics of the cultural policy of the NDH is a more resolute publishing activity with an emphasis on the creation of the Ustasha literature, important for the promotion of the Ustasha programmatic principles. Several titles were promoted daily from all aspects of human activity, which amounts to 3000 titles in all. Matica Hrvatska, Croatia Publishing (Bibliographical) Office, Croatian Academy of Alis and Sciences and Contemporary Library can boast of some quality titles, while the majority of other publications were used for political purposes. However, the aim of this article is not an evaluation of the literary worth, but an illustration of the production in the NDH.
