The article is an attempt to describe over 400 announcements preserved as copies in a secret archive of the ghetto in Bialystok. The text presents the circumstances in which the notices were issued and analyses such formal elements of them as heading, number or signature, from which it is possible to learn about daily life and occurrences in Bialystok ghetto, as well as the issuing authority or the group to whom the announcements were addressed. The author quotes a classification of documents proposed by Szymon Datner, which reflects important aspects of ghetto life, such as forced labour or education. The final part of the article reviews announcements on the back of which there are hand-written notes, presumably made by Mordechaj Tenenbaum.

This article uses the archives of the Czech publishing house Družstevní práce during World War II, which gives insight into how certain works were selected as DP struggled to maintain its identity. Between the World Wars, DP published several Dutch and Flemish authors, but the number of translated works from Dutch grew considerably in the 1940s since Dutch-language literature was one of the few literatures allowed during the Nazi occupation. Despite the fact that the Nazi authorities exerted great pressure to publish Nazi-friendly literature, DP managed to avoid publishing such books by using officially acceptable Dutch, Flemish and Scandinavian works as a political compromise.

Although Merija Grinberga junior (24 May 1909 - 28 February 1975) came from the Grosvalds family, one of the most renowned patrician families in Riga, her life and work has not received the attention it deserves when compared to other members of the family; for example, her grandfather Fridrihs Grosvalds, famous lawyer and Head of Riga Latvian Society, his children - painter Jazeps Grosvalds who introduced moderate contemporary trends in early 20th century Latvian art and the diplomat and art historian Olgerds Grosvalds and their mother Merija Grinberga senior, promoter of Latvian folk art and founder of a popular salon of applied arts. The life of Merija Grinberga jun. is closely related to several museums in Latvia, including the present Latvian National History Museum where she worked in the late 1930s, during World War II and for a short period in the 1940s, and the Latvian National Art Museum where she worked as a librarian from 1958 till the end of her life. The most important episode featuring in her memories comes from the year-and-a half journey from October 1944 to February 1946, accompanying the most valuable items of the major Riga museum collections that Nazi Germany's state institutions ordered to be evacuated to the Opava region in Sudety (now part of the Czech Republic) shortly before the Soviet Army recaptured Riga. These items came from the City Art Museum (now the Latvian National Museum of Art), State History Museum (now Latvian National History Museum) and its branch, the Dome Museum (now the Riga Museum of History and Navigation), the State History Archives and the Riga History Archives.
