Svensk uppslagsbok is a Swedish encyclopedia published between 1929 and 1955, in two editions.
The first edition was started in 1929 by Baltiska förlaget AB, [1] but publishing was taken over by Svensk uppslagsbok AB in 1931. This edition consisted of 30 volumes and one supplement volume, and was completed in 1937. [2] The articles in Svensk uppslagsbok were written by subject matter experts and signed. [1]
On the market, it competed with Nordisk familjebok in its third, condensed edition (1923–1937), and it aimed at being affordable for a large audience. [1]
A second, completely revised edition was published between 1947 and 1955, [2] and consisted of 32 volumes. The publisher Svensk uppslagsbok AB was renamed Förlagshuset Norden AB in 1945. [3]
For the rest of the 1950s and until the early 1970s, only significantly smaller Swedish encyclopedia projects were started.[ citation needed ] The second edition of Svensk uppslagsbok thus remained the most recently published large Swedish-language encyclopedia until the first edition of Bra böckers lexikon was published in 1973–1981, [4] and its size was only truly matched when Nationalencyklopedin was published in 1989–1996. [5]
Nordisk familjebok is a Swedish encyclopedia that was published in print from between 1876 and 1993, and that is now fully available in digital form via Project Runeberg at Linköping University. The public domain editions of the encyclopedia remain important reference works in Finland, especially on Finnish Wikipedia.

It was started as an alternative to the Swedish Academy and is often compared to its more noted cousin.
Bra böckers lexikon (BBL) is a Swedish encyclopedia published between 1973 and 1996, in four editions with 25 volumes each. The first three editions sold more than 400,000 copies.
