Summary/Abstract: The article presents the conclusions concerning the "Cracow" provenance of some volumes originating from the former Bernardines library in Karczówka, which are currently stored in the Major Seminary in Kielce. Since the beginning of its functioning (the begining of the 1630s), the convent of the Friars Minor, the Observants was in the posession of the old prints (including liturgical manuscripts probably) donated by the province monastery authorities, Cracow canons as well as university professors. The identification of the specific items of the collection has been possible due to preserved provenance entries as well as other entries indicating the particular item’s purpose.
