Barvíková, Hana
The inventory of Jan Svoboda’s (linguist and onomasticist) personal papers covers mostly working documentation of the creator, i.e. material to his work in onomastics and in institutions that were devoted to the discipline; the group containing documents to his public activities is therefore the largest.
