Libelle (from the Latin "libellus", meaning book or writ) is a Dutch language weekly women's magazine published in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

History and profile

Libelle was first published on 13 April 1934 by NV Uitgeverij.[1][2] The magazine was part of VNU[3] and was published by VNU Tijdschriften for several years.[4] In 2001 the magazine became part of Sanoma[5] and is published by Sanoma Media Netherlands B.V. on a weekly basis.[6] It has its headquarters in Amsterdam.[6]

Following the German occupation of the Netherlands during World War II the editors of Libelle endorsed support of the German forces.[7] In the late 1960s another women's magazine, Beatrijs, merged with Libelle.[8] During the 1990s Libelle was among the publications which functioned as an opinion leader in political and health-related issues.[9]

The target audience of Libelle is women aged between 30-55, most of whom are average Dutch women.[10] The weekly mostly features articles about fashion, beauty, culinary, travel, human interest, health, and work.[10][11]

Franska Stuy served as the editor-in-chief of the magazine from 1999 until 2015, currently Hilmar Mulder is in charge.[12]

For the past 20 years Libelle has been organizing a week long outdoor event in May, the Libelle Zomerweek.[13] In 2016 this event attracted 84.300 visitors.[14]

The magazine has a Flemish edition with the same name, Libelle, published in Belgium.[15] Although they are part of the same company, each magazine has an independent editorial board.[15]

Circulation

Libelle was the thirtieth best-selling women's magazine in 2001 with a circulation of 643,000 copies.[4] The magazine had a circulation of 621,068 copies in 2007,[8] 461,694 copies in 2009,[16] 448,303 copies in 2010 and 431,989 copies in 2011.[17] Its circulation fell to 405,558 copies in 2012.[17]
