Staff of KSAP visit the National Library of Poland
On Wednesday, 25 March 2026, staff of the Lech Kaczyński National School of Public Administration in Warsaw (KSAP) visited the National Library of Poland, continuing a series of study visits devoted to the functioning of Poland’s most important public institutions.
During their visit to the Palace of the Commonwealth, the guests had an opportunity to tour the permanent exhibition presenting the most valuable treasures of Polish written heritage. The tour was led by dr. Maciej Szablewski, the Director’s Plenipotentiary for International Affairs and Head of the Collections Access Department at the National Library of Poland. The students became acquainted with unique objects belonging to the national and European heritage and learned about the principles governing their protection and accessibility.
The participants then visited the temporary exhibition Jam posełkini jego, presented by its curator, dr. Łukasz Kozak. The exhibition became a starting point for a discussion on historical forms of communication, political culture, and the role of women in public life over the centuries.
The visit was a continuation of a meeting held three weeks earlier, when KSAP students toured the main building of the National Library of Poland. On that occasion, they had the opportunity to learn about the functioning of the reading rooms, conservation studios, and collection digitization processes, as well as the broad scope of the National Library’s activities.
This series of study visits by KSAP students to the National Library of Poland helps deepen their understanding of the role of cultural institutions in the state, as well as of the methods used to protect and provide access to national and European heritage.
