Summary/Abstract: During Ottoman times there were several public and private libraries in Gračanica. One of them was the library of Hadži Hasan effendi Nurikić, the muderris of the “Osman-kapetan” madrassah, who endowed his books to the Ahmed Paša mosque in Gračanica in the middle of the 19th century. We learn some basic data on this hitherto little-known library on the basis of a waqf document from 1916, when the grandson of the founder, Hasan ef. Kadić, was supervisor of the library.
