British policy towards the Soviet Union during Winston Churchill's second term as Prime Minister
Vondráčková, Tereza ; Váška, Jan (advisor) ; Kłusek, Johana (referee)
The bachelor thesis titled "British policy towards the Soviet Union during Winston Churchill's second term as Prime Minister" deals with the issue of British policy towards the Soviet Union which was influenced by the changing attitude of the most prominent British statesman of the first half of the 20th century, Winston Churchill. The thesis focuses on the beginnings of the détente policy caused by Stalin's death in 1953. In order to shed light on the historical context, it was also necessary to make a recapitulation of the policy pursued by the previous Labour government which was led by Clement Attlee. The examined period of 1951-1955 is characterised by the diplomatic efforts to initiate dialogue between the Western and Eastern blocs. The thesis further focuses on international conferences that aimed to reduce tensions and the arm race in order to eliminate the possibility of a nuclear conflict between the superpowers. Based on the studied secondary literature and available primary sources, the result of the thesis is the determination of the influence of détente on British policy towards the USSR and the evaluation of Churchill's attempts to engage in dialogue with the Eastern bloc.

42nd LIBER Annual Conference
Pejšová, Petra ; Římanová, Radka
Na konferenci LIBER 2013 byl prezentován poster s názvem „Czech Scientists Database“. Hlavní náplní tohoto ročníku bylo téma informační infrastruktury výzkumu a s tím spojené nové role knihoven. Účastníci se dozvěděli rámcové politiky Evropské unie směrem k otevřenému přístupu a výzkumným datům. Dále jim byly představeny již existující fungující praxe a možné náhledy, jak postupovat v následujících letech. Knihovny by se měly stát centrálním bodem pro vědce nejen v získávání informací, ale též v jejich publikování především v digitální podobě. V souvislosti s novou rolí knihoven byla zmiňována nová specializace tzv. „data librarian“.
