PÍSEK MUNICIPAL LIBRARY
A Place for Education, Culture, and Community Life
Písek Municipal Library is a modern cultural and educational institution serving the residents of the town and the wider region. It is located in attractive premises on Alšovo náměstí and is an open and accessible centre for all generations.
The library manages a rich collection of more than 140,000 items — ranging from fiction and non-fiction through audiobooks and films to board games. It also offers readers a wide range of digital services, including e-book and e-audiobook loans, access to databases, and an online catalogue available 24/7.
Education forms a significant part of its activities. Each year the library delivers hundreds of lessons for nursery, primary, and secondary schools, and offers courses for the general public — in languages, digital skills, crafts, and polytechnics. The development of reading literacy and collaboration with schools and non-profit organisations are also key strengths.
The library is likewise a centre of community life. It organises cultural and social events, author readings, exhibitions, and discussions with experts. It collaborates openly with local associations and institutions, thereby contributing to the development of the town's cultural identity.
Thanks to its modern design, full accessibility, and high-quality technical facilities, the library is a sought-after destination for study, work, and leisure. It creates a safe space where people can meet, learn, and discover new sources of inspiration.
Písek Municipal Library is not merely a place where books are borrowed — it is a vibrant centre of culture, learning, and open dialogue.
