rejstíku

Rejstíku is the genitive singular form of the Czech noun rejstřík, which denotes a registry, index, or catalog. The standard nominative form is rejstřík; rejstíku is used when the word appears in phrases requiring the genitive case. In texts where diacritics are omitted, you may still encounter the form rejstíku, though the correct diacritic spelling is rejstříku.

In usage, rejstřík refers to a structured list or inventory maintained by an institution or authority. It can describe registers of people, land or property, legal acts, or bibliographic and archival indexes. The concept is common in administrative, legal, and archival contexts, where a rejstřík serves to organize and locate records within a larger collection or system.

In libraries and archives, a rejstřík functions as an index or inventory that helps users find specific items across holdings or within a single volume. In cultural or historical research, references to a rejstřík often indicate the presence of an official or systematic listing that facilitates navigation of records.

Variants and related terms include synonyms such as seznam or katalog in broader bibliographic or inventory contexts, though rejstřík retains a sense of an official registry or indexed collection. The word is widely used in formal Czech to describe organized lists and the systems that govern them.
