Among the 34 publications donated to the library of this institution were the classical writers of the Czech literary scene such as Karel Čapek, Milan Kundera, Franz Kafka, Jaroslav Hašek, Arnošt Lustig, Patrik Ouředník or Josef Škvorecký. Czech poets are represented in the Anthology of Czech Contemporary Poetry (1948-2000).
