From 17 to 23 October 2012 five Russian-speaking, five German-speaking and one English translator, hailing variously from Augsburg, Bellinzona, Berlin, Fürstenfeld near Graz, Maxhütte, Moscow and Riga, met in Rybachi on the Curonian Spit in the Kaliningrad Oblast of the Russian Federation, where they discussed the texts they had translated from Russian and German literature for the Baltic Sea Library. The best final versions are if possible to be published on the Baltic Sea Library website. The programme included trips to the famous dunes at Morskoye and to Kaliningrad itself.
