(in English): The bachelor thesis deals with the topic of association, interest and self-help activities of Czech librarians and librarians from the 1990s to the present. The aim of the thesis is to map the historical development and activities of selected library associations against the background of milestones that have shaped the current form of contemporary Czech librarianship and the associated transformation of the library profession. Attention is paid not only to the best-known associations directly involved in library reforms, but also to informal groups without an organisational structure, which emerged in support of a particular library project or whose activities significantly influenced both the developments in library circles and the perception of the library profession in the eyes of the public.

A final assessment of the association's activities emerges from an overall analysis of all the documents examined. The mapping of these activities is limited to the territory of Bohemia...
