Launched in 1978, the magazine Mentor aims to develop an interest in understanding literature. The magazine publishes literary texts, interviews, reviews, and reports on symposia and festivals. It incorporates literary competitions to stimulate young creative writers and is illustrated by students. The table of contents and description of each issue of the magazine is available online.

Along with several annual competitions, Mentor magazine organises the already traditional competition Veseličnica ("Happy-Go-Lucky") for the best humorous stories. The selected work is awarded and published in the magazine. Since 2009 Mentor collaborates also with the Days of Poetry and Wine Festival where it stages Free Market (Prosti trg), the open public reading (each participant is limited to 4 minutes).
