Abstract
In 2013, the Slavonski Brod City Library established the Homeland War Collection. The reason for the formation was: to collect, to protect and to make available the book material which is related to the Homeland War in Croatia thematically, with the special emphasis on the material about Slavonski Brod and Brodsko-Posavska County. The introductory part of the paper presents the Homeland War Collection, its significance, the way it was developed, the ways of planning and procurement of materials, experiences and results of the formation of the Collection and the implementation of some new projects from the Collection. The second part of the paper presents the part of the Collection that refers to war and post-war events in Brodsko Posavlje. In the description of the part of the homeland fund of the Homeland War Collection, the author pays attention to the type of authorship represented, the genres represented, the type of publishing, and the new book material on the Homeland War from the Collection. The paper presents a quantitative analysis of the fund as well as the share and type of representation of local, native authors and phenomena. The paper shows the value and justification of the formed Collection with an emphasis on its native part as a kind of war scripture about Slavonia and Slavonski Brod. By publishing papers on this topic, the Collection should gain a strong public advocate of library services determined by the possibility of researching and valorising war events and its consequences for the local community through a unique approach to the total published book material of the Collection.
