The Ossolineum in Lviv was one of the most important scientific-cultural centres in Poland and the second largest (right behind the Jagiellonian Library) library. Since 1939 it was taken over by the Soviet and German occupying authorities. It was nationalized and reorganized. Thanks to the determination and involvement of many Polish employees of the Ossolineum the vast part of the book collection was saved from destruction and degradation. One of the people taking part in this process was Wacław Olszewicz, a librarian, excursionist, prewar ministerial clerk who spent the postwar period in Lviv. Here he devoted his time to working with books as consecutively a librarian and bibliographer in the Ossolineum, the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union at the cost of quitting the chance of returning to Poland. He kept in touch with Polish scientists publishing his works in Polish journals. He died in 1974. He was buried on the Janowski cemetery in Lviv.

The writer pays attention to the fact that the Ossolineum owed the most to its employees who did the task of presenting its achievements in a longer or shorter time span.

Scientific cooperation between a Polish scientist August Bielowski and an eminent activist of Ukrainian national revival Iwan Wagilewicz lasted with small breaks over 30 years from the time of graduating from gymnasium until Wagilewicz’s death. The main area of their activity at the time was the Ossolineum at first as a library which they used during their studies at the Lviv University, then as a direct place of their professional work. Bielowski began his career in the Ossolineum as a scriptor and then he was promoted to the position of a custodian and director; Wagilewicz was formally employed in the Ossolineum for only 9 months although he took part in most scientific projects realized there. The scientists then dealt with critical analysis of the oldest monuments of Slavonic writings and the best-known ones they prepared for print. An important part of their cooperation was elaboration of the second edition of Dictionary of Polish by Samuel Bogusław Linde. While being occupied with sources and facilitating the activity of the Ossolineum library and at the beginning of the 1860s also the Lviv City Council Archives, they put first steps in the direction of professionalization and institutionalization of historic science in Lviv.

This article concerns the conflict about economic curatorship of the Ossolineum in Lviv aften the death of Michał Baier (1930). Two representatives of the Ledóchowski family – Mieczysław and Stanisław were involved in this conflict. This conflict went through all degrees of jurisdiction and lasted from 1931 to 1937. Its essence was estimating whether the priority to take over the post of economic curator belonged to – according to principles set by Józef Maksymilian Ossoliński – the male representative of the indicated family appointed in the process of establishing primogeniture if he was an illegitimate child, later legitimized by the marriage of the father and the mother. The course of events and arguments raised by its participants allow to express doubts whether this conflict was only a legal one or rather a family-moral one. The courts had to consider the rights of legitimate children several times. Although they finally granted the priority to Stanisław Ledóchowski accepting his rights as a legitimate child through the marriage of the mother with the biological father later on, the right to take economic curatorship of the Ossolineum – due to procedural reasons – was granted to his rival. The history of the economic curatorship of the Ossolineum presented in this article has not yet been dealt with in the literature on the Ossolineum.

The Ossolineum was a result of scientific patronage undertaken by the representatives of the cultural elite since the beginning of the 19th century creating institutions of scientific and artistic life independent from the annexing countries. Those were foundations, to a lesser degree subjects of political pressure, which could be presented by their founders as nationally indifferent. In reality, however, they played a key role in maintaining national identity, educating intelligentsia and gathering and protecting the heritage of “the nation without a country”. Inscribing in the tradition of the activity of Duchess Izabela Czartoryska in Puławy, Józef Maksymilian Ossoliński established one of the first and largest Polish libraries which since the very beginning was open to the scientific world. Along with the libraries of the Zamoyski family in Warsaw and of the Raczyński family and Tytus Działyński in the Poznańskie region they created a network of libraries (mutual contacts and exchanges of doublets) radiating onto Polish annexed territories. And similarly to those the Ossolineum being a result of the patronage generated similar initiatives with their contemporary people who donated there not only family libraries but also gathered for generation works of are and other collections. An integral part of the Ossolineum was Dukes Lubomirskis’ Museum whose owners committed themselves to support this institution thanks to the Przeworsk fee tail set up for this very purpose. The Ossolineum functioned without breaks throughout the 19th century realizing postulates of its founder and consecutive curators, namely Duke Henryk and Jerzy Henryk Lubomirski and Maurycy Dzieduszycki continuing the realization of a sentence inscribed above the Sibyl temple in Puławy: The past for the future.

According to acts by the founder of Ossolineum Józef Maksymilian Ossoliński the tasks of the literary (i.e. scientific) curatorship included managing and supervising the activities of the institution most of all in the scope of administrative-proprietary and personal matters. The position of the literary curators was taken by fee-tail heirs of the Lubomirski family form Przeworsk in years 1827–1944 (Henryk in years 1827–1859, Jerzy – 1847–1851 and 1869–1872 and Andrzej – 1882–1944) or legal guardians of the Przeworsk fee tail (Kazimierz Krasicki in years 1872–1882) except for the years 1851–1869 when the Austrian authorities trusted this position to Maurycy Dzieduszycki for political reasons. The main merit of the literary curatorship was to maintain the character of this institution as it was specified by Ossoliński as a Polish national establishment in the period of the anti-Polish policy realized by the Austrian administration in Galicia in the 1830s. Literary curators also took merit for gaining additional sources of funds for Ossolineum (among others, through obtaining the right to print school textbooks in 1876). In years 1847–1913 literary curators and vicecurators appointed by them took the responsibility of direct management of this institution. Although it caused competence conflicts with consecutive directors of Ossolineum, namely August Bielowski and Wojciech Kętrzyński, but at the same time it allowed them to focus on scientific works and elaborating library resources. Henryk Lubomirski and his son Jerzy also took merit in multiplying museum collections donating their vast collection of paintings, graphics and numismatics being the basis to launch their Museum in Ossolineum in 1869. A negative aspect of the literary curatorship of Andrzej Lubomirski was treating the Ossolineum building as a kind of private seat with harm to the literary and museum needs of the institution and making at times too arbitrary and thoughtless decisions in its matters.

Ruch kolekcjonerski rozwijający się w XIX w. w Galicji (prowincji monarchii austro-węgierskiej) zaowocował powstaniem wielu zbiorów zawierających dokumenty klasztorne. Są wśród nich kolekcje Wiktora Baworowskiego (1826–1894) i Aleksandra Czołowskiego (1865–1944). Baworowski rozpoczął działalność kolekcjonerską w połowie XIX w. Nabywał dokumenty i oferowane mu specjalnie księgozbiory. Po II wojnie światowej Biblioteka fundacji Baworowskiego została podzielona, w wyniku czego jej fragmenty znajdują się w Archiwum Głównym Akt Dawnych w Warszawie, w Bibliotece Narodowej w Warszawie, w Zakładzie Narodowym im. Ossolińskich we Wrocławiu, a największa część w Lwowskiej Narodowej Naukowej Bibliotece im. Wasyla Stefanyka we Lwowie (Ukraina). Drugi z kolekcjonerów – A. Czołowski był historykiem i dyrektorem Archiwum miasta Lwowa. Zgromadził duży zbiór dokumentów, z których znaczącą część przed i w czasie II wojny światowej odstąpił lwowskiemu Ossolineum. Obecnie fragmenty kolekcji Czołowskiego znajdują się w archiwach i bibliotekach w Warszawie, Wrocławiu i we Lwowie. Scharakteryzowane zbiory pokazują, jak szeroki był rynek kolekcjonerski i jak wiele dokumentów o proweniencji klasztornej znalazło się w rękach prywatnych.

The collector movement developing in the nineteenth century in Galicia (a province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire) resulted in emergence of many collections containing monastic documents. These include the collections of Wiktor Baworowski (1826–1894) and Aleksander Czołowski (1865–1944). Baworowski started as a collector in the middle of the 19th century. He purchased documents and book collections offered specifically to him. After World War II the Baworowski Foundation's Library was partitioned, and as a result its contents are now housed in the Central Archive of Historical Records in Warsaw, in the National Library in Warsaw, in the Ossoliński National Institute in Wrocław, and the largest part in the Vasyl Stefanyk National Scientific Library in Lviv (Ukraine). The other collector - A. Czołowski, was a historian and director of the Lviv City Archive. He amassed a large collection of documents, a significant part of which he donated to the Lviv Ossolineum before and during World War II. Currently, parts of Czołowski's collection can be found in Warsaw, Wrocław and Lviv archives and libraries. The characterized files show how wide the collector’s market was and how many documents of monastic provenance ended up in private hands.
