This is a review of the state of research of the Cracow press from its beginnings (ie. occasional newspapers) up to 2009. In his study of the Cracow press the author adopts the concept of local press’ (ie. where the key criterion is that of the place of publication regardless of the outreach). A survey of the publications shows that research into the history of the Cracow press boomed after World War II. As scores of articles, monographs and reports were published, the focus of interest was extended from the old grounds of the early press history, the 19th century and the Republic of Cracow, or the press of the Nazi occupation period to the new fields of the press history of the interwar years 1918–1939 as well as the post-1945 and post-1989 periods
