National Library of the CR events and important guests
ByVisit of Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the National Library

National Library of the Czech Republic is a venue of many important visits, as it is one of the prominent institutions of the Czech culture. In May 2025 the National Library hosted a special guest – during his Prague visit, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukrainian president, and his wife Olena Zelenska were part of the discussion and a guided tour through the library building and facilities (details here). Visit is documented also on Wikimedia Commons.
Library hosting GLAM and educational events

With its 8+ wiki-residents, National Library belongs to one of the most active GLAM partners of Wikimedia Czech Republic. During May and June 2025 we co-organised (together with SKIP (Association of Library and Information Professionals of the Czech Republic) one webinar related to 1Lib1Ref challenge. During June 2025 there is a repetition of SPARQL workshop aimed at librarians from the whole Czech Republic. More information to be found here.

Congratulations on the partnership with SKIP, on Pavel Bednařík's great workshop, and bravo to Skot & Linda.jansova for being 1Lib1Ref champions once again! If possible, I would be very interested to understand what drives them to add references, and what could be done to support their work and that of other librarians. But the most important part of this post is to celebrate your continued efforts (I always use your 1Lib1Ref awards as an example of well thought design ❤️) --SEgt-WMF (talk) 02:54, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
