Masarykiana

A separate collection of Masarykiana was founded in the MZK in 1935. The then-head of the library, philosopher Josef Kratochvíl, decided on the occasion of the new presidential elections to set aside all books by T.G. Masaryk and all literature about him as a separate ensemble. This collection survived all the regulations of totalitarian regimes (both the Nazi occupation and the further 40 years after 1948), when it was not available for lending as a whole.

The shelf location is  Mas. Books may be studied in the library reading room only. 

Josef Florian Library

The library of Josef Florian, notably the part containing mostly 19th and 20th century French literature, which motivated his publishing activities, was an exceptional purchase made in 2002 and 2003. The MZK acquired about one-tenth of the extensive Florian library, which contained 5,000 volumes. It is accompanied by editions that were in the previous library collection that Josef Florian published in Stará Říše na Moravě.

The shelf location is FLO. Books may be studied in the MZK reading room only and will be retrieved on the second day after ordering.

Otokar Březina Library

One of the few comprehensive collections deposited in the MZK stocks is the library of the poet Otokar Březina. In his will, he ordered his heirs to divide the library into two parts according to the content: literature and books with dedications were bequeathed to Masaryk University, while fiction was sent to state high school pupils in Moravské Budějovice. In deference to the poet, the school part was preserved and transferred to the library in Brno in 1972, and thus Březina's library was kept complete. The scope of the library is 4,399 volumes of books and magazines.

The shelf location is OB1, OB2, and OB3. Books may be studied in the MZK reading room only and will be retrieved on the second day after ordering.

Bezručiana

This is a special collection founded in 1937 on the occasion of Petr Bezruč's 70th birthday. It consists of different editions of works by this author and literature about him. The shelf location is PB. Books from this collection may be studied in the library reading room only.

Jakub Deml Library

The Jakub Deml library was acquired by the MZK from the Museum of Western Moravia in Třebíč in 1976. It contains a total of 1,495 volumes of books, only a small part of which are Deml's works. The collection has mostly books with dedications from authors who were friends of his, and there are a number of useful guides.

The books stored in the MZK feature dedications to Jakub Deml - for example from Otokar Březina, Richard Weiner, Růžena Svobodová, and Karel Čapek. Others are inscribed with the names of people to whom Jakub Deml sent his books or for whom he prayed.

The shelf location is DEML. The books may be studied in the reading room only and will be retrieved on the second day after ordering.
