The Juraj Dobrila University of Pula was officially established on September 29, 2006, but its beginnings date back to 1960, when the first higher school of economics was opened in Pula, followed by the Pedagogical Academy the next year. The University and its components are an important part of the educational and cultural history of Istria in the 20^th and 21^st centuries, and the University Library of Pula has a special role in preserving the cultural heritage of Istria.

The Library was established under the name Research Library in 1949 and it operated independently until it was merged with the University of Rijeka and changed its name to the University Library in 1979. It has been a part of the Juraj Dobrila University of Pula since 2006. The Library has received a mandatory copy of select publications from Croatia since 1951 and a mandatory copy of everything printed in Croatia since 1956. Based on the above-mentioned regulations, copies of the Istrian Fighter/IBOR were also submitted to the Library.

The Library has a large number of materials that testify to the struggle to preserve the Croatian identity in Istria. The Library's digitization project involves a high number of books, newspapers, manuscripts and journals, of which a significant number is in the Croatian language. These publications include:IBOR: the Voice of Istrian Youth (IBOR: glas mladih Istre), Istrian Fighter: Istrian National Youth Journal (Istarski borac: list narodne omladine Istria), The People's lord (Narodni gospodar), Croatian School (Hrvatska škola), The People's Schooling (Narodno školovanje) and Young Istrian (Mali Istranin). Croatian language in Istria was nurtured by the youth journals Istrian Fighter and its successor IBOR during the socialist period.

Since 2003, the Zbigniew Raszewski Institute has been documenting, promoting, and animating the Polish theatrical life. The Institute manages the largest collection of various documents related to the theatre in Poland. It runs the portal e-teatr.pl – which is entirely devoted to the Polish theatre as well as the Internet “Encyclopedia of the Polish theatre” (www.encyklopediateatru.pl). Vistors have also acces to a library, a media library and a specialised bookshop. 
The Theatre Institute’s archive holds the largest collection of documentation on the contemporary Polish theatre. The archive offers an access to a huge collection of news articles, reviews, photos, theatre programs, playbills, posters, documents referring to the activities of individual scenes, private archives of artists and archives of various institutions. The whole collection – including the portfolios of newspaper clippings, related to the individual artists’ works, various editions of theatre and film festivals, theatre schools and theatre magazines – is available in the Archive’s reading room. 

The branch library in Király Street (in the 4^th district of Budapest) preserved the CDs of the popular music collection at Rottenbiller Street. On the Facebook page of the library, one finds more than 800 pictures of CD covers. The catalog of the CDs is available online.

Spolek byl založen dne 12. 3. 1968. Byl nezávislým sdružením studentů a absolventů Filozofické fakulty UJEP. Organizace to byla na svoji dobu neobvyklá, neboť byla zcela nezávislá na centrálně řízených masových mládežnických a studentských organizacích. Vzhledem k této skutečnosti a také proto, že byl tento spolek oficiálně povolen ze strany Jihomoravského KNV, stal se od druhé půle roku 1968 platformou dalších studentských organizací – stávkového výboru a od ledna 1969 také akčního výboru. Obě tyto součásti spolku měly celouniverzitní kompetenci. V této době se tedy Spolek posluchačů filozofie stává prostředím pro formulování svobodných názorů celé univerzity. Kromě iniciativy vyvíjené uvnitř univerzity pěstoval také kontakty k dalším vysokým školám v Československu i školám v zahraničí (např. Freie Universität v Západním Berlíně). Spolek se stal také iniciátorem vytvoření nové studentské organizace, a sice Moravského svazu vysokoškolského studentstva, který by vedle existujícího Českého a Slovenského svazu zohledňoval zájmy moravských univerzit a jejich studentů. Během své existence nepravidelně vydával časopis „Ruch“. S nastupující normalizací začátku 70. let se nezávislá a demokratická platforma spolku stávala pro komunistický režim stále větším problémem, načež byl spolek v roce 1970 rozpuštěn.
