The Slovene National Study Library was officially established in 1947, although the vibrant history of Slovene and Slavic cultural activity in Trieste dates back to the pre-war period of the 19th Century. The National and Study Library is comprised of two additional departments: the History Department (established in 1951, based in Trieste) and Slovene People's Library (established in 1989, based in Gorizia).

History in brief

The first Slavic National Reading Room in Trieste was established in 1861, other cultural institutions and societies in the city and it's rural region followed soon after.
