Public Procurement in the Czech Republic

When selecting providers of EIRs we are obliged to follow provisions of Law No. 134/2016 Coll., Act on Public Procurement ("APP”). In this process The National Library of Technology carries out the role of central purchasing body in accordance with Art. 9 of APP.

Under Czech law, publishers have two options as far as CzechELib public tenders are concerned:

1. The publisher decides to go through the public tender directly (as a publisher/provider).
   • In this case "Instructions for Publishers as exclusive suppliers of EIRs” apply and the publisher should fill in and sign the proclamation "Confirmation of Exclusivity of the Publisher”.
2. The publisher decides to select an agent who will administer the process for him.
   • In this case "Instructions for Exclusive EIRs Suppliers” apply and the publisher should fill in and sign the proclamation "Confirmation of Exclusivity of the Supplier”.
