(Polish title: Zyczenia noworoczne parafii luteranskich Leszna i Smigla z lat 1670-1790. Przyczynek do dziejów literatury okolicznosciowej i obyczajowosci mieszczanskiej w poludniowo-zachodniej Wielkopolsce). The article examines a collection of strena printed in Leszno between 1670 and 1790 for Lutheran parishes in Leszno and Smigiel, and currently held at the District Museum (Muzeum Okregowe) in Leszno. The author analyses their physical form as well as their content, confronting these data with other well-known examples of such publications printed in Gdansk, Wroclaw and Zgorzelec. The publications in question did not change greatly over time, both with regard to their content and layout. The content comprised a long title containing information identifying the sender and the addressee, as well as rhymed verse dealing with thanksgiving and beseeching. In important historic moments, the anonymous authors would try to refer to the current political situation (Turkish threat, loss of independence towards the end of the 18th century). The strena published in Leszno served specific social functions: they united the parishioners, were an important element of the parishes' charity work and a manifestation of literary activity of the clergy.

Ephemera as a separate group of library collections are a new phenomenon in Polish academic and research libraries. Ephemera belong to special collections and play a significant role in various areas of scholarly research. Libraries have not agreed upon a detailed definition of ephemera so far. Ephemera most often tend to include various printed items concerning multiple domains of social life and reflecting internal activities of various organizations, associations and institutions. Published in the form of broadsides, leaflets, monographs and serials for temporary informational, propaganda, advertising and standardizing purposes, addressed to clearly defined audience, boasting a varied form and layout, they usually are distributed via channels other than regular bookshops. Some libraries use their own specific criteria for identifying and collecting ephemera. Recently the production of ephemera has witnessed an incredible boom as they became an indispensable part of everyday life. Libraries know this issue in detail due to their growing problems with acquiring, cataloging and storing ephemera. Any decision made as regards ephemera in libraries is bound to be very controversial.
