The kept collection of incunabula is not uniform in terms of their origins. Although this is a small collection, in many ways it is interesting concerning both authors, areas of their knowledge, notes of origin or their binding. The library has in total twelve bibliographical positions in ten volumes. They are the work of workshops located in four urban centres: Venice, Cologne, Strasbourg and Augsburg. All of the collection of books are concentrated around four major groups: Scripture, Theology, law and philosophy. The authors of those works were the most prominent representatives of medieval science. Part of the incunabula’s cover are from the period of the book’s print (turn of fifteenth and sixteenth century), part of them are from the later period.

The collection of manuscripts at the Cistercian library in Szczyrzyc amounts to 100 volumes, including four medieval codices dated between 1460-1494; 12 manuscript books dated to the 17th century; 57 dated to the 18th century, and 27 manuscripts dated to the 19th century. Most of them are textbooks, copies of theological, philosophical and legal treatises, works on rhetoric, liturgy, world history, mathematics and herbal medicine, as well as books of homilies for special occasions and feasts. The collection of manuscripts at the monastery in Szczyrzyc is mostly a functional one – it was used by the monks to study and broaden their philosophical, theological, legal and liturgical knowledge. Several codices contain the texts of homilies delivered at various churches on feast days and solemnities, written down by the monks of Szczyrzyc. The surviving codices are bound in simple covers made of damaged folios taken out from liturgical codices, including antiphonaries and graduals. Considering the small number of surviving books, it is difficult to discuss the interests or influences of particular authors and their works on the intellectual level of the religious community of Szczyrzyc.

A study of eight multicultural suburban Swedish classes forms the backdrop of an analysis of the role of the library in students’ development towards becoming skilled readers. In-depth interviews with five teachers and one librarian involved in the classes provide empirical data, even though background information was collected with mixed research methods. The librarian’s narrative is the primary source of data in this article. The children′s educational trajectory from the preschool class to third grade is in focus. The present meta-analysis highlights the role of the library and the librarian, with respect to linkages made to the children’s overall literacy development. As a tool for analysis critical literacy theory was used, thus extending the influence of the librarian′s participation beyond the actual literacy practice, to the surrounding society. The results indicate that the library played a vital role in several ways, for teachers and students as well as for the parents. The collaboration between the librarian and the teachers started with the librarian having book talks with the children. However, she became a participant in the team’s planning and follow-up activities, linking the worlds in and out of school.

Professor Dr. Michał Patkaniowski (1907–1972), a distinguished professor at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the Jagiellonian University, had deserved his right to fame as an outstanding scholar and efficient organizer of academic life. His silhouette has been presented in numerous biographical notes, including the Polish Biographical Dictionary. Yet what seems particularly worthy of recalling here are his efforts to expand the library collection of the historical and legal chairs. Thanks to his efforts, the collection became enlarged by over 3000 books which had been withdrawn from the libraries of Krakow courts as well as from the libraries of other courts in Krakow’s surroundings

The library of the parish church in Szadek - being the seat of Szadek Decanate and belonging in 1818 to Gniezno Archdiocese - was referred to, with listings of all the books that it contained, in parish documents (canonical Visitations of the parish) of 1762, 1779 and 1788. It was mainly used by local priests. After less than half a century of existence, it was destroyed, probably in a church fire in 1802. The registers list some 35 books, most likely in printed form. The themes of this collection of books point to it being the property of one of the parish priests, donated after his death to the parish. Nearly half of the books are works useful in preaching: collections of sermons and examples. The remaining publications, too, are intended to help priests in their pastoral work, religious instruction and preaching. Among Polish parish libraries of the 18th century, this collection falls within the category of small libraries (1-50 books).

The aim of the article is to present not so much the figure and scholarly activities of Stanisław Przyłęcki (1805–1866), but his interest in broadly defined book questions and ways of collecting books. Analysing the contents of two manuscripts by Przyłęcki, currently kept in the Ossoliński National Institute (no. 1838, 1861), the author focuses on his study entitled Bibliomania. The analysis makes it possible to conclude that it is not, in fact, an original work by Przyłęcki but a free translation of a fragment of Léopold-Auguste Constantin’s book Bibliothéconomie. Instructions sur l’arrangement, la conservation et l’administration des bibliothèques, published in Paris in 1839. The article also contains an edition of the translation with a commentary.

The paper studies the important aspect of the estate culture of the Russian white clergy - the reading circle, readers’ interests of the clergy representatives. The authors examine the possibilities of different sources (inventories of personal libraries, notes and records on books, compilation manuscripts) for the reconstruction of the clergy’s reading circle. Compiled manuscripts are of special interest as they reflect “the modem literary tastes of the compiler and the reader”. The paper analyses the XIX century manuscript-collection which was owned by a priest of the Vyatka diocese. This collection may be divided conventionally into parts - ecclesiastical and secular. The texts of the ecclesiastical part are connected with the studying of the manuscripts’ owner in the Seminary, and with his practical pastoral activity. The secular part contains poems of the late XVIII - early XIX century Russian poets with different subjects - from sententious to erotic. The literary tastes of the manuscript compiler may be assessed as eclectic. The eclectic was usual for many readers of the age, when a rapid change in literary directions took place.

Zamiłowanie do korzystania z książek i bibliotek w Zakonie Braci Mniejszych już od początku jego istnienia w wieku XIII wzmogło się szczególnie w konwentach miast uniwersyteckich.  Żaden zakonnik nie mógł posiadać książek na własność, ale mógł z nich korzystać na zasadzie wypożyczenia z biblioteki konwenckiej.  Od powstania pierwszych klasztorów bernardyńskich w latach 50-tych i następnych wieku XV, konwent św. Bernardyna w stolicy kraju był największy i najlepiej obsadzony. Posiadał najliczniejszy zakonny nowicjat, a także studium przygotowujące do kapłaństwa. Przy pierwszej bibliotece i archiwum prosperowało na stosunkowo wysokim poziomie skryptorium klasztorne.  Zakonni pisarze mieszkający w krakowskim konwencie mieli szczególne prawa do korzystania z miejscowej biblioteki i archiwum.

The article presents the convent book collection of the Norbertine Sisters in Ibramowice. Its beginnings date back to the first half of the 18th century. The convent was rebuilt after the fi re in 1710. Then its greatest benefactor, the Rev. Dominik Lochman, made an effort to found a library to which he himself gave a lot of books. The library established by the Rev. Lochman grew bigger throughout the following years. The books mainly came from donors, but some of them were brought by sisters who entered the convent, including those nuns who were resettled from dissolved convents, for example from Busko. The present–day book collection is divided into five categories: manuscripts, antique books, nineteenth-century books, modern books and magazines. The size of the book collection is not exactly known. So far it has been possible to confirm the existence of about 30 music manuscripts, which were written from the 18th to the 19th century, over 800 antique books and over 300 titles of magazines. The most valuable books are the thirteenth-century antiphonaries of Płock, the fifteenthcentury gradual and a few extremely rare antique books.

Reading in Hellas developed quite slowly in the first period of the book development. However, more and more people read and possessed books. History reveals that ancient Greeks possessed small book collections. One of them was Aristotle of Stagira who is considered to be the first real book collector. His library held 143 works in 400 books. Before his death, he bequeathed his whole book collection to Teofrast of Eresos. In the course of time the library “changed hands”. It even became the part of Sulla’s war loot and hence it was in Rome. The library in Alexandria also possessed a substantial part of Aristotle’s books. After the collapse of Greece, Aristotle’s writings were kept in Syria. In the 4th century in Mesopotamia and then Aristotle’s writings along with other Greek philosophers were read in Arabia. The expansion of his philosophy to the West was possible due to the expansion of the Mahomet’s followers to the Pyrenees Peninsula. Thanks to the Arab philosophers, Latin Europe became acquainted with Aristotle’s philosophical legacy. At the end of the 19th century Aristotle was the talk of the world of science due to the new archeological discoveries. Dry sands of the Egyptian desert preserved papyruses with the fragments of different ancient texts. And thus Aristotle’s “The Constitution of the Athenians” was discovered, the text whose title had been only known before this archeological find.
