One-fifth of the Slovenian population is living outside the borders of the Republic of Slovenia. A part of rich “production” of the Slovenian diaspora is now available in digitized form on the dLib.si portal, where you can browse through various journals and numerous books.

Medieval Manuscripts

Codices, handwritten books from the period before invention of the printing press, are valuable and rare library materials. Many of them are rich in colorful illuminated details. The National and University Library of Slovenia stores 122 codices, which were created between the late antiquity and the modern times.

Plečnik’s Notebooks

In collaboration with the Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana, we wish to present 42 digitized notebooks and sketchbooks of the architect Jože Plečnik (1872-1957), which are kept by the Plečnik House. These materials give an insight into the architect's all-round interest in visual creation.

Balthasar Hacquet (c. 1739–1815)

Balthasar Hacquet worked as a physician, a military and mine surgeon, and also as a lecturer at the Ljubljana Lyceum and at the midwifery school. Alongside his professional work, Hacquet dedicated himself to the research of geological, botanical, geographical and ethnographic characteristics of today's Slovenian territory, which he described in his Oryctographia Carniolica. He was also a member of the Zois circle.

The National and University Library is one of the participants in the European project ODEUROPA, which bundles expertise in sensory mining and olfactory heritage. The goal of the project is to explore how ‘smell’ was expressed in different languages and cultures. Currently, there are more than 5,000 digitized texts of various cultural heritage institutions included in the project.
