The Saxon State Office for Libraries looks back on a history of over 100 years. On the eve of the First World War, it was founded in Leipzig in 1914 as the State Central Office for Popular Libraries in the Kingdom of Saxony. Since then, it has supported libraries run by local authorities and acted as a link between them and their owners. Since 2022, it has been operating under the organisational umbrella of SLUB Dresden.
