Library of the History Departments

THE LIBRARY OF THE HISTORY DEPARTMENTS

The library of the history departments at the Faculty of Arts, Comenius University in Bratislava, is one of the oldest and largest seminar libraries of its kind. Its collection has been steadily growing since 1921, when the historical disciplines were established at the Faculty of Arts.

The library holds approximately 50,000 volumes of scholarly literature in the fields of Slovak and General History, Auxiliary Historical Sciences, and related disciplines. The collection includes basic syntheses, textbooks, monographs, editions of sources, conference proceedings, and historical journals.

The holdings of the Historical Seminar have been catalogued and are accessible through the Comenius University Union Online Catalogue. More than 36,000 volumes are currently available to readers.

After submitting a request form, ordered materials will be available the next day in the reading room (Room 425), located on the 4th floor of the main university building at Šafárikovo námestie.
