It has been long due for National Széchényi Library to set up the first exhibition presenting the unmatched library of Gyula Todoreszku.

This fall, too, National Széchényi Library will take part in the event entitled European Heritage Days. The title of NSZL’s building historical walk is “Metamorphosis and symbiosis”.

As a final phase of computer network development in National Széchényi Library, our old central network devices will be replaced by new ones. Due to the replacement, our internet services, including the online catalog, thematic websites, LIBINFO, etc., will not be available on Sunday September 11, 2016.
