Abstract

In this article we are giving an overview of the development of Mursiana, local collection of City and University Library of Osijek, from its beginning till today. Special accent was given on collection development and special types of materials in it, with emphasis on the most represented ones, monographic publications and legacies. With increased work on the collection and its popularization, there is an increased user interest for the local collection. Article is based on thirty years of experience of working with the collection (including collecting local materials, processing, organizing and presentation), individual documents and reports from archives of the Library. This work makes a contribution to systemic thinking and systematization of Mursiana, its organization and presentation in context of local heritage. It is an addition to history of local collections in Croatia, with special emphasis on enrichment of local literature for the area of Osijek.
