The study deals with four codices complementing the recently published catalogue of manuscripts coming from the houses of Augustinian canons in Roudnice nad Labem and Sadská. Two of them are deposited in the collections of the National Library in Prague and the other two in the Library of the Metropolitan Chapter of St Vitus, administered by the Archives of Prague Castle. In terms of content, these manuscripts enrich the Roudnice collection especially with hagiographical and historiographical works. Both manuscripts of the National Library provide information on the fate of the monastic library in Roudnice after the dissolution of the monastery, when its library became part of the library of the Zajíc family of Hasenburg. The paper contains a codicological description of the four manuscripts.

The article deals with the medieval manuscript library of the former house of the Canons Regular of St Augustine in Prague-Karlov. The text presents extant sources: apart from the manuscripts themselves, some of which contain ownership and donation records, there is in particular a medieval list of Karlov manuscripts, made by the abbot Procopius in 1380, and a record of the donation of a large number of codices given to the library by Jan, the parish priest of Dobešov and Černovice, in 1395. The article further analyses them and describes the history of this library on their basis. The core of the study is a description of the surviving part of the library, from which twenty-five manuscripts have been identified. It summarises the physical characteristics of the codices, their dating, provenance, and language classification. Most attention is given to a detailed thematic categorization of the library’s contents.
