This year marks exactly 20 years since the building of the Central Library of the Faculty of Science at Masaryk University was officially opened.
Over these two decades, it has become not just a place to study, but also to meet, create, and relax.
Visit Our Exhibition
To celebrate this milestone, we have prepared an exhibition tracing the library's journey from the 1990s to the present day – complete with photographs, architectural plans, and personal memories.

We present a selection of examples from research and teaching; including tools you can try yourself, and mentions of what doesn't work yet.
At the end of July we are shutting down our current library system and moving to a new one.
