The Sodobnost International Cultural Society organises readings and workshops in Slovenia (for example, the workshop on playwriting) and presentations of contemporary Slovene literature abroad. It publishes Sodobnost, a monthly literary and cultural journal, and book collections from various fields of interest, such as novels, children's literature, books about reading, etc. A major part of the book publishing activity focuses on anthologies of foreign short prose. As a direct result of deals with foreign publishers, anthologies of contemporary Slovene short fiction are published abroad as well. The society also confers the Best Short Story Award jointly with the Slovene Writers’ Association and the Best Slovene Essay Award.
