Cultural and creative industries in selected sector in the South Bohemia Region
ZUZÁKOVÁ, Eliška
The main subject of the bachelor thesis is to analyse the current state of the cultural and creative industry in the region, to map selected sectors, to identify the subjects and to propose measures that could lead to further development of the region and the sector. In the literature search, I summarized the basic concepts and information by studying and comparing the Czech and foreign literature. Then, in the methodology, I described how I would proceed with the practical part. In the practical part, I mapped the subjects of the book and print sector, found out the current state of affairs in the selected subjects by means of a questionnaire survey, personal interview, and by comparing the knowledge acquired in the theoretical part with the information obtained in practice, and suggested ways of using the potential of this sector for further development. On the basis of the obtained data, I found that in South Bohemia region there is a need to provide better conditions for enterprises in the sector to work and develop. Therefore, using the information obtained, I proposed four ways of solutions that could lead to further development. The first is to create a single platform for information transfer, the second is networking, or industry meetings, the third is to raise awareness about creative vouchers and the last is training for subsidies. These solutions could lead to the improvement of the situation and support of the creative and cultural industries in the South Bohemia region.

This was followed by an evaluation of key aspects of the case studies, on the basis of which a set of recommendations for the developing Žižkárna project in České Budějovice was created. In the last chapter, one of the proposals, namely the establishment of a multifunctional outdoor gazebo, was subsequently evaluated in terms of costs.

The role of libraries in cultural and creative industry
Čejková, Kateřina ; Kolínová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Landová, Hana (referee)
This bachelor's thesis investigates the role of libraries in cultural and creative industries. The text defines various concepts related to these industries, maps the needs of libraries and highlights the necessity for libraries to adapt to new user requirements and other influences, such as the development of information technologies. The thesis gives an overview of different activities and projects, which are a way for public libraries to present themselves outside of their premises. These projects include not only public events to attract new readers, but also cultural events that have become an integral part of cultural life in various towns and cities. In this way, libraries are becoming a part of the streets, for example through little wooden libraries designed to exchange and share books, or through their presence in festivals, outdoor swimming pools, or public transport.

Hejdová, Markéta ; Kubaš, Mario (advisor) ; Kouba, Vojtěch (referee)
The subject of this theses is the sector of creative industries a its behaviour at the time of economic crisis. The theses presents teories that study creative industries and its existing conclusions, while putting into contrast different views on the premise that creative industries are the source of economic growth and employment. Creative industries have been so far studied only during the time of prosperity, however, the 2008 economic crisis enables us to study them during recession. The analytic part of this theses is therefore dedicated to studying the economy of Great Britain, and on the basis of three economic indexes describes the behaviour of the creative industries during the crisis and immediately thereafter. The theses concludes that the creative industries indeed experienced growth, however, it also points out the limitations of all existing studies, including this one.
