V Muzeju novejše zgodovine Slovenije je na ogled nova razstava z naslovom Dotiki meja in tlakovanje poti k demokratizaciji: Vzhodnoevropske literarne revije 1945–2004, ki je nastala v okviru dveletnega mednarodnega projekta LITMAG. Glavni namen projekta je ohraniti zgodovinski spomin na revije, ki so imele večplastno vlogo, poleg tega, da so predstavljale glas nasprotovanja totalitarnim režimom, so prinašale vrhunsko literaturo in misel, iz katere se lahko še danes veliko naučimo. O razstavi in projektu so spregovorili direktor založbe Beletrina Mitja Čander, koordinatorka projekta in vodja produkcije pri Beletrini Maja Papič in pa muzejski svetnik v MNZS dr. Marko Štepec.
