In the last years, the research in the National Museum Library (NML) has mostly focused on book provenance treatment (the PROVENIO Project: The Method of Book Provenance Research, supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic /MC CR/ within the Applied Research and Development of National and Cultural Identity Programme /NAKI/, 2012–2015). The main outcomes of this project are, besides the publication Ex libris... Ex bibliotheca… Knižní sbírky Knihovny Národního muzea a jejich dřívější majitelé [Ex libris... Ex bibliotheca...: Book Collections of the National Museum Library and Their Previous Owners] and a number of studies, also applied outcomes and the provenance database. Another NAKI grant implemented in the NML was the project Printed Books from the 16th Century in the Chateau Libraries of the Czech Republic (in cooperation with the National Heritage Institute and the National Library of the CR), whose main publication outcome is the homonymous three-volume catalogue. The two projects are currently continued by another grant of the MC CR, NAKI II: Virtual Reconstruction of Scattered Book Collections of Bohemical Provenance in the Czech and Foreign Libraries (2018–2022).

In parallel with NAKI projects, the NML has also implemented research within the research objectives of the Institutional Funding of the Long-Term Conceptual Development of a Research Organisation (IP DKRVO). In 2012–2017, attention was chiefly focused on the cataloguing of the rich collections of manuscript fragments deposited in the Department of Manuscripts and Early Printed Books of the NML. The main outcomes of this research are catalogues dealing with individual shelf-mark series – the last volume, Rukopisné zlomky Knihovny Národního muzea. Signatura 1 K (Dodatky ke sbírkám Adolfa Patery a Čeňka Zíbrta) [Manuscript Fragments in the National Museum Library: Shelf Mark 1 K /Supplements to the Collections of Adolf Patera and Čeněk Zíbrt/] was published in 2017. DKRVO funding was also used for the publication of Liber viaticus Jana ze Středy: zmenšená reprodukce a komentářový svazek [Liber Viaticus by Johannes Noviforensis: A Reduced Reproduction and a Commentary Volume], which deals with one of the most important medieval manuscripts deposited in the NML and which came out in cooperation with the Academia publishing house in 2017. In 2017–2018, DKRVO also enabled material research into the Manuscript of Dvůr Králové and the Manuscript of Zelená Hora, whose chief objective was to determine their current state. The main outcome of this research objective is the monograph Hmotný průzkum Rukopisů královédvorského a zelenohorského: dokumentace současného stavu [Material Research into the Manuscript of Dvůr Králové and the Manuscript of Zelená Hora: The Documentation of Their Current State], accompanied by abundant visual material. In addition, the NML has conducted research (likewise funded from DKRVO) into Slavic collections, chapbooks (see the Špalíček database) and their producers in the geographical context, and has initiated preparatory work on the edition of Sebrané spisy Ferdinanda Peroutky [Collected Writings of Ferdinand Peroutka].

The NML is in charge of the journal Acta Musei Nationalis Pragae – Historia litterarum (in 1956–2016 published under the title Sborník Národního muzea, řada C – Literární historie), focused on literary history, book history and book culture.

According to the National Museum's statutes from 1994, the Museum Library is a publicly accessible research library. It is one of five divisions of the National Museum, along with the Natural Science Museum, the Historical Museum, the Náprstek Museum of Asian, African and Indian Cultures and the Czech Museum of Music. Since 1956, the library publishes the Journal of the National Museum in Prague, series C – literary history from 2017 under a new name Acta Musei Nationalis Pragae – Historia litterarum.

It puts together exhibits both at home and abroad. It organizes lectures and lecture series, particularly in cooperation with Matice Česká, an association of the Museum Fellowship. It collaborates with the print media, radio and television. Library workers also function as educators in universities and in technical schools dealing with their specialty.

Since 2000, the library has participated in the project Memoriae Mundi Series Bohemica (national subprogram within the program UNESCO Memory of the World), whose goal is digitalization of historical library resources. Subsequently it also contributed to the Manuscriptorium and ENRICH programs.

The Manuscripts and the early printed books have been scanned since 2006 and they are available online via the digital libraries Manuscriptorium (currently 451 documents) and Portaro (165 documents).

In 2004, the Journal Department joined the national programme for the preservation of historical periodicals, made available in the Kramerius digital library, and digitised the newspaper titles Politik (1862–1906), the historical series of Časopis Národního muzea (the volumes 1831–1922, in 1827–1830 under the title Časopis Společnosti wlastenského museum w Čechách, in 1831–1854 as Časopis českého museum, in 1855–1922 as Časopis Musea království Českého), Prager Presse (1921–1938) and Rudé právo (in 1920–1938 including evening issues, in 1928–1934 published under the title Rudý večerník).
