Prachatice opens modern multifunctional library center

A new multifunctional library and educational center has been completed in Prachatice, Czech Republic. Located in a former fire station, the facility is designed to be one of the most modern of its kind in South Bohemia.

Director Hana Mrázová noted that the new space will include several modern amenities, such as a cafe, relaxation areas, and an elevator. The library will implement RFID technology, allowing for self-service book borrowing and returns via self-check machines. The facility is intended to serve as an open space where visitors can read newspapers or enjoy coffee without needing a library card, though registration is required for home loans.
