Publishing programme
MK offers extensive and varied coverage of poetry, prose, and professional literature. However, its most significant publishing and research project is without doubt the Encyclopaedia of Slovenia, which was issued in 16 volumes.
Collections
The Kondor collection of prose works, referred to as a Slovenian Penguin Classics, was launched six decades ago, in 1956, and has reached around 350 books. Still popular is also the Nova slovenska knjiga collection that was launched in 1971. The collection Lirika was established in 1970, and today includes over 150 titles of world poetry translations.
See the timeline of Mladinska knjiga collections on the Wikipedia link below.
Magazines
Mladinska knjiga is also the main publisher of magazines for children (Cicido, Ciciban, Moj planet, PIL), and school students (PILplus), and publishes GEA magazine. In 2004 it started a partnership with Reader's Digest Inc. and began publishing the Slovene version of Reader's Digest magazine.
Public outreach
Since 1968, Mladinska knjiga runs the educational project Vesela šola ("Merry School") linked to the Pionirski list (later called PIL or PLUS) Magazine for pupils.
It also bestows the Levstik Award for children's literature, and the Blue Bird Award for best unpublished adult or young adult novel.
The Mladinska knjiga book club, called Svet knjige ("Book World") was established in 1974 and has more than 100,000 members.
Sunflower Gallery
Since 2008 Mladinska knjiga runs also the Sunflower Gallery that present mostly book illustration by the authors working with and for the Mladinska knjiga Publishing House and those who are publishing their work in the abovementioned children magazines.
