The article presents the profile of Eugeniusz Przybyl – one of most notable Torun’s bibliophiles of the 20s, 30s and first decades after the World War Two. By profession E. Przybyl was a painter. In 1920 he moved to Torun and lived there until his death in 1965. He worked for many cultural associations being a cofounder of some of them. As a keen bibliophile he attended to his book collection, regularly adding newly published items. His special interest lay in artistic books, particularly ornate and avant-garde volumes. He also collected second-hand books. In the 20s and 30s he added more than 500 new items to his collection, including one incunabulum and several rare books. Shortly before the WWII Przybyl’s collection consisted of approx. 6,000 volumes. After the war it continued to grow and finally reached about 10,000 items. The article presents early years of Przybyl’s collection while still in his secondary school. The research is based on E. Przybyl’s book inventory held in the University Library of Torun as well as his wife’s accounts.

Documents and items of special collections of Polish academic libraries constitute the treasure of our national heritage as well as European and world cultural legacy. The issues such as acquisition profile of University Library Art Collection in Torun, the origin and distinctive character of bookplates collection were presented in the article. The analysis of archival materials of The University Library in Torun allowed to determine provenance of English bookplates collection. The remarkable, outstanding British artist Eric Gill (1882–1940) and his artistic attitude was portrayed. He was the author of the Miriam Rothchild bookplate (1932) which is currently held in Art Collection of University Library in Torun as well as Victoria & Albert Museum in London. A preliminary search of library and museum holdings in Poland, USA and Great Britain showed that only The Art Collection of University Library in Torun and Victoria & Albert Museum in London possess the Miriam Rothschild bookplate of E. Gill in their holdings. The literature research covering E. Gill's oeuvre showed that the bookplate in question is very occasionally presented and it has never been discussed. For that reason the attempt has been made to characterize modes of artistic expression and stylistic onces of the bookplate as well as E. Gill's attitude to nature.

In the era of computerization of libraries it is important to use new channels to reach users. Now, when the model of Library 2.0 becomes increasingly popular, the ways of reaching users are changing overnight. The author of this article has attempted to find out how to use a social networking site in the concept of Web 2.0 as a form of library promotion. The author has chosen Facebook as the world’s most popular social networking site. The goal of the research was to find the answer to a question: Are modern libraries able to fully use the facilities of the portal? The author analyzed the contents of profiles of three university libraries (in Warsaw, Poznań and Toruń) and the reception of this form of promotion. In order to reach the goal, the author used qualitative-heuristics method, considering the following criteria: the frequency of posts, the usage of the wall, the video channel and the photo gallery, link sharing, the contents of posts, access to the library catalogue and keeping information about the library in 'Info' section up to date. The research was done in the period between 1st January 2011 and 31st March 2011.
