Severočeská vědecká knihovna, Regional research library in Ústí nad Labem, Czech Republic.
The Severočeská vědecká knihovna is a research library in Ústí nad Labem with multiple floors housing books, journals, digital materials, and workspaces for study. The collections focus on history, science, and regional topics of northern Czech lands.
Founded in 1945 after World War II, the library grew into a central institution for education and research in the northern Czech regions. It has systematically collected works on local history and regional development since its opening.
The library maintains extensive archives of local literature and organizes regular exhibitions highlighting the cultural heritage of the Ústí region.
The library is split between two buildings: the scholarly collections in the Wolfrum villa and its 1990s extension at Velká Hradební 49, the popular section in the former Weinmann villa at Winstona Churchilla 3. A book-return machine operates in the Velká Hradební building.
The café in the library is called Café Novel, opened as part of the 2019 renovation of the Velká Hradební 49 building. The library also holds a collection of old chess literature, including a book printed in 1584.
