1 year ago Çağla Erdem: it is necessary to add to this place:There are lot of book. They are about very different subjects. Also there are many English book about subjects. It is very good place to work, meet, discuss. You don’t need registration to use the library. Only if you want to take book, you need it. There are a cafe, meeting rooms.
1 year ago John Kemp: it is necessary to add to this place:there is always a pleasant student-like informal atmosphere here. It is cozy and I have never observed any aggression here. there is sufficient space between the tables for conversations, and some students use to work on there project. the terrace outside is spacious and in a pleasant environment. There is a large hall available where you can sit in luxurious armchairs and the toilets are excellently maintained within a short walking distance. the consumption offer is also varied and of high quality.
1 year ago Sarah Makwrote only this about this place:It’s a really clean and modern library. There are quiet study rooms, teamwork rooms, as well as rooms with vending machines for food and drinks. I saw a small vending machines for stationery too. The toilets and food vending machines are on each floor, making them convenient to access. Each floor is quite small, so it is quite a walkable place. There seems to be some Czech Technical University (CTU) classes in a few rooms. The main hallways are a bit noisy as people are walking up and down staircases, so studying in the more remote corners of each floor may be better. I think the political drawings you can view in the center of the building are cute. On my first visit, I managed to enter without printing a free day pass—I simply asked the person at the entrance to let me in. (I’m not sure if it’s because I looked like a confused CTU student who forgot her card.) For my second visit, I managed to print my ticket at the ticket printer right next to the turnstiles. During the exam season, on a Saturday, the place was almost full though. I had a walk a bit to find a suitable seat. It’s not a tourist attraction per se—other libraries in Prague have a more storied history—but I think that it’s a good place to study.
1 year ago Ken Habarta- why does he think this place is on the list?Worth visiting at the very least to experience the sheer magnitude of the inner architecture and aesthetic choices, e.g. Dan Perjovschi's epic 200+ smart-comic, protest-reqdy illustration-grafitti sloganeering depictions inside its 5-story open atrium. "The Číst Republic" 📚 bonus it's also a public library, teeming with studious behavior and beats any cafe for getting work done. 🙌
1 year ago Eleftheria Gkivizini- why does he think this place is on the list?Huge yes. The design is amazing, nice temperature, open all day (and night) long. Free for students of other universities (+digital nomads). There are vending machines in each floor and a cafe on the bottom with nice outdoor space for the warm days. It can be very busy during the exams and in 6 floors you can’t find a single chair to sit. But surprisingly everyone respects the quiet zones.
