This article presents the results of the research on the publishing process that took place in the Colombian series Selección Samper Ortega de Literatura Colombiana. Several national texts (of different literary genres) that already existed and had an editorial development since the nineteenth century were compiled. Thus, this article analyzes the main aspects that made this compendium of works and that, to a certain extent, characterized the local edition from 1930. Furthermore, the personal relations of the compiler with authors, the definition of editorial task with the Editorial Minerva of Bogotá, publishing contracts, literary property that changed the relation between the practice of printing, libraries and the heritage of elites were examined.

Keywords : Selección Samper Ortega de Literatura Colombiana; Colombian publishing; Colombian literature; Libraries; Literary series; Printers.
