Bulletin is the English version of Mercurius, the official yearbook of National Széchényi Library that regularly informs the international audience about its activity.

Mercurius follows the tradition of the previous OSZK Híradó (NSZL News), and the OSZK-NSZL Yearbooks in providing information on the previous year of the Hungarian National Library, its performance, tasks assumed, main events and most significant academic achievements.
