Who we are
We are a public universal library which absolutely everyone can use. Our aim is to gain, process, preserve and provide information, literature and other cultural values. We place special emphasis on services for parents with children, youth and students, services to senior citizens, the socially disadvantaged and the handicapped. We are here for everyone who wants to develop themselves, to study and have fun as they decide.
What we offer
We lend books, music, films and pictures. You can connect to the internet for free in all branches. You can find our branches in 42 places throughout Prague, and three mobile libraries visit areas without bricks-and-mortar branches. Throughout the entire year there are cultural events in our libraries for which a minimal fee is charged or which are completely free of charge. We organise art workshops for children and parents, lectures, training sessions, seminars, film projections, concerts of famous musicians, theatrical performances and many other things.
Our founder is the Capital Prague, and we operate on the territory of the entire city.
