The aim of this work is to find and analyse library activity in the subject of adult civic education. Moreover, this thesis defines the area of adult civic education and its relation to hobby education. Subsequently, these two matters are closely related and to some extent overlap, and there is no precisely defined boundary between them. Furthermore, the role of libraries as educational institutions in general, as well as civic adult education institutions are expanded. Additionally, an overview of chosen adult educational activities that can be done in a library setting is also provided. Lectures and conversations, in particular, are highlighted as the most frequently featured methods. Similarly, an empirical study, performed in the form of interviews with six librarians from the district towns of the South Bohemian Region, is also part of the work, with the goal of determining the state of adult civic education in their libraries. The final project is a SWOT analysis of the strengths and limitations of adult civic education in the Czech Republic's library setting, which is based on theoretical concepts, existing research, and its own actual study.
