The article endeavours to analyse calendars published in Cracow for the people: „Landlord’’ (1896–1913), „The Pole’’ (1903–1913), „The Polish Mariański Calendar’’ (1903–1913) and „The Home Country Calendar’’ (1909–1914). Calendars for the people played a key role in the conveyance of various information to the rural community, especially in the second half of the XIX century, after the granting of property rights to peasants, during the period of educational development in the rural areas as well as at the outset of the XX century.

At the turn of the XIX and XX centuries they also constituted one of the means of promoting reading in the rural areas.
