  History
  The National Library of France is one of the oldest in Europe. The Royal Library existed in the Louvre even under Charles V (ruled in 1364-1380) and totaled 1,200 manuscripts. Over time, from this meeting, almost nothing remained, so that Louis XI was forced to begin the creation of the palace book depository from a blank page. Francis I ordered to deliver to the library a copy of every book printed in France, and in 1544 he took the whole assembly from the Louvre to Fontainebleau.
  
  In the 17th century the library returned to Paris, and in 1622 its first catalog was published. Louis XIV made the library public, opening it for free. Its current name was given to the library by the decision of the Convention during the Great French Revolution. In the XIX century, the department of manuscripts was significantly expanded by the efforts of Leopold-Victor Delil.
