The multilingual Czech Literature Portal is intended mainly for the promotion of Czech literature abroad. The aim of the Portal is to make available information on the living and publishing Czech authors and their works (novelists, poets, playwrights, essayists including authors of literature for children).

It is not the purpose of the Portal to stand in for the comprehensive range of academic sources available in this area. The service we seek to provide is that of a modern, centralized source which is regularly updated, comprising information on the literary life of the Czech Republic in its broadest sense. The information is intended to reach abroad: scholars (including students), translators, editors, literary centres, organizers of literary events (festivals, fairs, readings, exhibitions), journalists, compatriots and regular interested persons in the Czech literature.
