Sažetak
The museum library is created simultaneously with the Museum of Free Royal Borough, in Osijek, in the year 1877, following the fund of founding collections of archeological, numismatic and historical literature. It is continued through the years, through the effort of curators, and it aims to enrich the funds of professional literature, and also to spread the material on new collections of ethnographic and art history materials. The fund of the library of the museum in Osijek is, over time, gaining native materials as well, alongside regular increasing of professional museum literature. After Second World War, with the founding and work of KOMZA, the Museum of Osijek was in charge of taking care of the abandoned castles in Slavonia, and with classification of cultural and historical material, which will be delivered to the Museum. With especially rich literature fund, the Museum has gained possession of the material of old institutions and societies (Library of City Commission, Commercial Trades and Crafts), and the library of the nobleman family Prandau–Normann from Valpovo, and the part of the library that belonged to Pejačević family, from Našice. Family library of Prandau–Normann’s has been recognized as an extraordinarily important heritage collection, and much like similar family literary heritage, it speaks of it’s owners, their interests and habits. It represents a special type of monumental material which, on even terms with other heritage remains, bears witness to the time in which was made, it’s content and the diversity of values and distinctiveness – bindings, decorations, ex librises, dedications, notes on margins – it highlights social and cultural happenings that have formed it. The individual specimens, and even more, the entire literary whole, take over the role of the witness of the passage of time, and the change that has taken place in society and space. In a word, it becomes a museum material without losing a shred of it’s content value.
