Litera has launched a series of quality publishing programmes based on criteria such as contemporary relevance, originality, and aesthetics, alongside exclusively literary and local history publications. Works published by Litera have received a number of awards and nominations.

In addition to book publishing, Litera also organises literary events, book presentations, meetings with authors, and literary workshops. Litera books have been presented at international book fairs in Ljubljana, Frankfurt, Prague, Belgrade, Pula, and Tuzla.
