(2) Local "people’s" library is almost in every village, WWW pages can be found mostly for libraries in larger cities. They include also university and faculty libraries and libraries of the Academy of Science (totally 158, all of them with WWW sites)

(3) Seznam is the most attended Internet search engine, directory and portal in the Czech Republic, http://www.seznam.cz

(4) http://www.vlada.cz is the official WWW site of the Czech Government

(5) The basic information (address, services, working hours, etc.) about all museums and galleries are available on http://www.cz-museums.cz. The smaller figure is related only to separated WWW sites offering extra information.

All the sectors show the evident growth. The changes are mostly visible in the area of high schools (number increased from 35% to 84%) and hospitals (number increased from 21% to 62%). Despite of the rapid development in the commercial sector, the public administration institutions still lack funding for increasing number of WWW services (especially hospitals, primary and secondary schools).

The special cases are the large Web services containing information on small local authorities, resp. museums. Not each of them has its own Web site (see the lower percentage) but all they are hosted on the central site mentioned* (that means WWW pages exist for 100% of them).

100% coverage show ministries, universities, university libraries and also regional and local authorities and museums (when considering their WWW presentations on the central servers).
