How can I register

In person – you will fill out the application form at the registration office, submit the necessary documents, and pay the registration fee.

Online - via bank identity verification. If you use a BankID-participating bank and are over 18 years of age, you can use all of our services, including access to online resources, immediately upon verification and payment of the registration fee. If you do not use a bank identity, you have the option to complete a pre-registration form. You will then be able to order documents from the online catalogue immediately. When you first visit the library in person, we will complete the registration process with verification of your identity. You will then also have access to the online resources.

What you need to register

Individuals

• A valid passport or ID card
• A chip card which will serve as your customer card (e.g., ISIC, ITIC, OpenCard, ČD In-karta). If you do not have a chip card, we will make one for free.

Registration is conditioned by the provision of basic personal data and consent to its processing. Personal data is processed for the purpose of keeping records of users, providing services and for the protection of the library collection. The personal data of users is destroyed if the user has not renewed the registration and has no obligations to the MSVK, no later than 1 year after the end of the registration.
