Lehrerbibliothek deluxe: Die Schlossbibliothek Oels (Oleśnica)

Der kleine Ort Oleśnica, einige Kilometer nordöstlich von Wrocław gelegen, hatte etwas, das im Nischenbereich der Schulbibliotheksforschung sehr besonders ist: Eine Schlossbibliothek, die über mehrere Jahrhunderte hinweg von Lehrern und Rektoren des Gymnasiums gepflegt und zu Forschungszwecken genutzt wurde.
