Mythenbibliothek
The so-called Mythenbibliothek has been on permanent loan from the federal government to the Volkskundemuseum Wien since 1946. According to the inventory book, it comprises 1629 copies or binding units. The publications focus on myths, fairy tales and legends – hence the designation of this library collection as the Mythenbibliothek. Since the loan agreement was signed in November 2019, the collection has been digitised and made accessible online.
