Computer‐based library systems in the National and University Library in Zagreb Available to Purchase

The beginnings of the Yugoslav National and University Library (Nacionalna i sveučilišna biblioteka), Zagreb reach back as far as the first years of the 17th century when the Jesuit Collegium was founded in Zagreb (1606). There is evidence that it became a public library in 1818 and in 1837 the library was granted the right to receive deposit copies from the territories of Croatia and Slavenia. By 1945 the University Library was formally established as the central library of Croatia. According to the Library Law of 1960 passed by the Parliament of the Republic, the former name Sveučilišna knjižnica (University Library) was changed to Nacionalna i sveučilišna biblioteka — NSB (National and University Library) in conformity with its tasks and activities. According to the law, it has also formally become the central library for bibliographic information in the Republic, and has become responsible for publishing the national bibliography.
