Excerption range: Newspapers and journals published in Czech exile publishing houses in 1948-1989 with an overlap to the 1990s.

Database history and changes in cataloguing practice: The database of Czech literary exile is processed according to the general standards of the Czech Literary Library. The records are processed in MARC21 format in the Aleph system from the beginning. Unlike the "Czech Literature of Exile Bibliography" dataset, this dataset contains records of Czech and international fiction and reflections on foreign literature.

The dataset includes a data file in MRC format (binary MARC21), a list of excerpted journals in XLSX format, a description of the dataset and a specification of the local cataloguing practice of the CLB in TXT format.
