| The State Library was founded in 1833 as the Library Royal. Its first chief librarian and bibliographer was Jan Hrubý, who made his immense private collection the basis of the new library. Within three years, until 1836, the stocks had grown to 290,000 volumes. Starting in the same year, all publishers were obliged to hand in a deposit copy of their works. Since 1851, the Library has published the National Bibliography of [[Slovertia]].
