The article brings brief information about the elementary manuscript holdings of the Paris National Library focusing on the occurrence of albums, especially those containing entries connected with Bohemia. As well as a series of albums belonging to foreigners who travelled to Bohemia or were given entries by Czech students on their sojourns abroad, the collection houses a rather exceptional manuscript – the album of Frederick V. The voluminous manuscript in sumptuous binding, the copy of which was gained by the National Museum Library, is worth a more detailed investigation in international context too. The study of the albums focused on finding out Latin occasional poetry connected with Bohemia, but its results are rather poor.
