Giving a historical survey the author mak-es comment about the kinds and nature of publications issued by the Centre. A wide variety o-f problems contained in materials published makes it necessary to give them varying -forms. The following will be a brief characteristics of the Centre’s publications. „Ochrona Zabytków” (Monument Protection), a quarterly review started since 1948 and -from 1962 onwards published by the Centre is the only Polish periodical entirely devoted to problems of historical monument protection in the broadest sense of the term. Much attention is being focused on problems linked witji technological treatment of historical monuments of practically every kind. From among the others several works may be quoted dealing with problems of legal protection of cultural property and also numerous polemic opinions on the -general conservation outlines and ideas. The -constant divisions, titled „Reports and Discussions” contain the current information with regard to conservator’s activities both in Poland and abroad. A separate chapter is formed by „Bibliography” where 13 most important periodicals dealing with conservation are regularly reviewed and also the reviews of more interesting books on the subject are placed. A complete bibliography of the quarterly contents may be found in bibliographical supplements that were enclosed with the issue XVII, 1964, 4 and XXIV, 19711, 1. It is the 'contributions made by the leading authoritative scientists that are placing „Ochrona Zabytków” among the appreciated publications in the field of conservation. „Biblioteka Muzealnictwa i Ochrony Zabytków, seria A” (Library of Museums and Monument Protection, series A) is a book series of low circulation amounting to some hundreds copies where materials are published of a lasting value for (researchers. This series has been founded in 1964 as the Centre’s publication and up to now 7 volumes were published. The first part of this series is composed of books containing the catalogues of architectural drawings from the greatest Polish collections as, e.g. National Museums in Cracow and Warsaw, the Library, University of Warsaw. At present a book ’’Architectural and Building Art Monuments in Poland” is in print representing some kind of catalogue illustrating the actual state of possession. In the nearest future i't is planned to publish a series of inventories from the following lines: wiali paintings, ancient organs pieces of ancient goldsmith’s art. ’’Biblioteka Muzealnictwa i Ochrony Zabytków, seria B” (Library of Museums and Monument Protection, series B) is a .series of brochures (up to now 30 titles) published by the use of xerographic process in small circulations and distributed only for institutions concerned. Their contents vary greatly from technological subjects through those legal, general conservators’ • problems, museology up to materials and proceedings of major scientific conferences. In spite of modest graphic forms these publications are finding full acknowledgement among those representing the museum and conservators’ circles. Four to five volumes are published each year. ’’Teka konserwatorska” (A Conservator’s File) forms an abundantly illustrated series of books devoted to conservation treatments for safeguarding the most valuable groupings of ancient architecture. It is expected that two new items, namely ’’The Old Town in Poznań” and ’’Wilanów” will soon extend this series. ’’Muzealnictwo” (Museology) is a non-regular publication comprising materials from the field of museology and exhibitions and shows organized by Polish museums. In addition to articles on the pages of this publication may be found the chronicle-tyipe notes and both the publication and foreign periodical reviews. The above series represents the only publication of general character devoted to museum problems.

In conclusion iof :a 'conference Sin the Miinis'try 'of Culture ąnd Arts idievioted to problems connected with historical monuments in the region of Dublin the author presents two suggestions with concern to perishing wooden istructures. Hd;s suggestions relate especially to those objects which cannot be preserved nor in situ neither in scansen-type open-air museums. It is the author’s view that the timber coming from demolished objects and not exhibiting traces of decay should be preserved as material for repairs carried out an buildings under conservation. As another essentia! measure it is suggested (by the author that the respective outlines should be worked out indicating the methods for preparing photographic and drawing documentation; of demolished objects. The above uniform outlines should comprise detailed indications as to basic materials that may be required for the future scientific 'research and at the same time their preparation be adapted to possibilities possessed by the field conservation authorities.

This Division is responsible for preparing of documentation and dealing with theoretical problems of conservation of monuments that are preserved outside the museums. Ais the movable monuments or works of art are considered all objects of plastic art except for those of architecture or townplanming. Documentation problems. As the basis of all works carried on by the Division serves the inventory of movable monument's covering more than 2/3 of the total number of objects within the country’s territory. The inventory consists of special index cards prepared for each movable monument bearing a photograph, measurements, a detailed description, and s.o., and, in addition a classification or evaluation of a given piece within one from among four groups . The Division has at its disposal a Central File containing over 100,000 cards. This File by itself constitutes an unusually rich documentary material that is steadily improved and made up to date through verifications carried out in field. None the less, this File is to be considered as only the first stage preceding more detailed documentation of selected groups of monuments of whom three are already under preparation, namely (a) Polish wall paintings, being a subject in stage of working discussions, (b) Polish ancient organs and organ prospects; on the basis of index cards for movable monuments and also of special questionnâmes dealing mainly with the organ mechanisms an isolated file has been established of ancient organs and organ prospects in Poland which after its supplementing with the available bibliographical, illustrative and archival sources will be published by the Centre. This publication will be preceded with a comprehensive work by Dr. Jan Chwałek titled „Organ building, an Introduction to Inventory of Ancient Organs in Poland”. Parallely with works of documentary character the Division deals with organization of conservation work in that field of activities being entirely new one in Poland. Already at present in collaboration with the State Ateliers of Historical Monument Conservation the first Atelier for Conservation of Ancient Organs has been called into being in Cracow. (C) ancient goldsmith’s art in Poland; as a result of works devoted to this subject a bibliographical card index of goldsmiths and that of goldsmith’s marks is being established and the „Terminological Dictionnary of Goldsmith’s Art” prepared (its author being M. Gradowski). The chief among the planned works will, however, consist in publication of a detailed inventory of pieces of ancient goldsmith’s art. There is also under preparation a comprehensive book by M. Gradowski and J. Rochacki „Techniques and Technologies used in the Ancient Goldsmith’s Art”. Conservation problems. It must be pointed out that neither the Centre nor its Movable Monument Division do not carry out the conservation work. It is this Division, however, that is responsible for preparing of a central, country-wide plan for conservation of movable monuments and at the same time for supervision of its execution through the participation of its representatives in Conservators’ Commissions outlining the scope of works to be undertaken or approving the work already executed. Another Division’s task consists in programming and financing the methods and media whose results are conveyed to Publishing Division for publication. Where particularly valuable monuments are Involved, requiring especially complicated conservation treatments or using the new conservation media (as it was the case with the Romanesque flooring plate at Wiślica) the Division organizes the meetings of the most narrowly specialized experts in a subject to take the proper decisions and then to supervise their execution. More general as to their character are the Conservators’ Conferences organized by the Division with their sessions attended by representatives of conservation authorities and guests from abroad. Seven such conferences have been held up to now devoted to conservation of monumental objects made from wood, metal, textiles, leather, wall paintings, stone, paper and parchment, and easel paintings. Organizational measures have been already taken for preparation of a conference on conservator’s documentation. Proceedings of these conferences are published in form of reports and discussions in the Centre’s series „Biblioteka Muzealnictwa i Ochrony Zabytków, seria B” („Library of Museums and Monument Protection, series B ”).
