A contribution to the study of the history of libraries and reading rooms in Solin
Nada Topić
Sažetak
The centennial anniversary of the founding of the Reading Room and Library of the Solin
Sokol (Falcon) Society (1923–2023) provided the impetus to research and present the history
of librarianship in Solin, which dates back to the second half of the 19th century with school
libraries. Since then library services in Solin have been organized in various forms (school libraries, parish libraries, private libraries, public libraries and reading rooms, libraries of labour and trade union organizations and enterprises, and bookmobiles). This paper, based on archival and other sources (periodicals, oral history) and available published data, presents the work of libraries and reading rooms in the Solin area in the context of the time in which they operated and the diverse user groups they served. The first part of the paper discusses the work of school libraries, starting with the first public school, founded in 1870 in Vranjic, up to the present day. The second part of the paper covers the activities of public libraries and reading rooms, which began to be established at the beginning of the 20th century, with particular focus on the work of the Reading Room and Library of the Solin Sokol Society. The third part describes the work of factory trade union libraries formed with the Dalmacijacement company from the late 1950s to the early 1980s. The fourth part highlights the work of the Solin branch of the Public Library in Split, which operated from 1971 to 1988, as well as its mobile library - the Bookmobile. The fifth part provides information about the activities of the Solin City Library since its establishment in 1996. The operation of all these types of libraries testifies to the continuity of library services in the Solin area, which has been subject to the social and technological changes that characterized the period under study.
