  2. Unclaimed books from Broučci and Myšáci classes must be returned to the library shelves.
  3. Books must be returned on the 1st Saturday of the next month prior to class. Another book/magazine can be borrowed only after the previous one has been returned.
  4. In addition, parents of students can borrow one children’s book/CD under the name of the student. This will be marked on the library card with “R“. Please contact us if you would like to borrow a particular book/CD.
  5. Students taking Czech as a foreign language can also borrow books. Please contact us for further information.
