The clippings archive, which was established at the request of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, systematically collected clippings mainly on foreign political events. Gradually, a unique collection of thematically arranged newspaper clippings from the Czechoslovak and foreign press from the years 1916-1987 was created. The fonds itself is divided into three parts, the first of which contains clippings from 1916-1944, the second one from 1945-1951 and the third one from 1952-1987. The first part of the fonds contains sets of clippings on Jews in Czechoslovakia from 1920-1944 and on the Jewish religion from 1924-1942. At the end of each part of the collection there are clippings on important personalities of the Jewish community in the Czech lands and abroad, especially politicians, artists, journalists and writers.
All three parts of the fonds have almost identical internal division: Finding aids (Auxiliary books and card catalogues), International development, World and states, States, Czechoslovakia in territorial division, Czechoslovakia in detailed division, Institutions (alphabetical), Persons (alphabetical). The archival materials are arranged in subject units that respect the original division by the originator.
