Sources of knowledge of treatment practices in the La Tène period in Central Europe are limited. Archaeologists very often classify findings on the basis of their personal opinions which are not substantiated by evidence. The theories that have been proposed so far are not widely accepted by the academics. Artefacts that are expected to be used for diagnostics and treatment are not usually chosen to deduce the form and processes of therapeutic practice in the La Tène period. The main issue of the topic is the possibility to distinguish between tools for therapeutic procedures and artefacts created for other purposes. However, there is also the question of whether it is possible to distinguish between tools originating from Central Europe and tools originating in the Roman or Greek environment, artefacts which originated in the studied period from medieval or modern objects, and the real artefacts, for which there are no suitable analogies, from counterfeits created in the 18th‒19th centuries. For this purpose, specific debatable sets of artefacts are used. The goal of the research is to clarify the real purpose of the examined artefacts, for which it was previously proposed that they were used for therapy or diagnostics in the La Tène period. The results of the review and analysis of the artefacts have their explanatory ability about the state of practice in the studied geographical area.

The purpose of the article is to present a method of the treatment of the collection of archive negatives of the State Institution of Higher Education of Visual Arts in Gdańsk by the library of the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk. The article discusses the author’s own experience in the work on the photographical material and the relevant problems which were experienced by the library staff. One applied an experimental method in research. The experiences which were collected and described in the article may serve the task of the development of one’s own methods and may prompt librarians to engage in the treatment of photographical collections in their libraries. The process of the digitalisation of photographs sparked a great interest of the users of the library. When one initiates the scanning of materials, one may encounter logistic problems (e.g. the setting up of a workroom), financial problems (e.g. the purchase of a scanner and the relevant materials), also the methodology itself may become an obstacle. It is necessary to make a comprehensive inventory of photographs so that eventually they may be rendered accessible to the users of a reading room. This will contribute to the enhancement of the familiarisation with the history of the University and its influence upon the development of art in the region, and it may also influence the enhancement of the prestige of the scholarly institution. The treatment of a photograph is an interesting and also a difficult task, which requires a great deal of humility, dedication and patience on the part of the researcher

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie metody opracowania zbioru archiwalnych negatywów Państwowej Wyższej Szkoły Sztuk Plastycznych w Gdańsku przez Bibliotekę Akademii Sztuk Pięknych w Gdańsku. Zostały opisane własne doświadczenia z prac nad materiałem fotograficznym oraz wymienione problemy, z jakimi zetknęli się pracownicy Biblioteki. W badaniach zastosowano metodę doświadczalną. Doświadczenia te mogą posłużyć do wypracowania własnych metod i nakłonienia bibliotekarzy do opracowania zbiorów fotograficznych w swoich bibliotekach. Projekt digitalizacji fotografii spotkał się z ogromnym zainteresowaniem ze strony użytkowników Biblioteki. Przystępując do skanowania materiałów, należy liczyć się z wystąpieniem licznych problemów logistycznych (np. zorganizowanie pracowni), finansowych (np. zakup skanera, materiałów) oraz metodologicznych. Konieczne jest dokładne zewidencjonowanie fotografii, aby na końcu móc je udostępnić użytkownikom czytelni. Przyczyni się to do lepszego poznania historii uczelni i jej wpływu na rozwój sztuki w regionie, może także wpłynąć na podniesienie prestiżu placówki naukowej. Opracowywanie fotografii jest zadaniem interesującym, a jednocześnie trudnym, wymagającym od badacza dużo pokory, poświęcenia i cierpliwości.
