1918–1944 METŲ ESTŲ KNYGOTYROS ISTORIOGRAFIJA IR ŠALTINIAI
Authors: MÖLDRE AILE , REIMO TIIU
Published: January 2019

The article characterises the formation and development of the Estonian book science during the years 1918–1944 and gives an overview about the research on the period in the second half of the 20th century. Book science as an independent field of research started to develop in Estonia in the 1920s. Friedrich Puksoo and Richard Antik became the most significant researchers. F. Puksoo is the author of the first general overview of the history of the Estonian book, published in 1933. R. Antik made a major contribution to retrospective bibliography and book statistics. 138 publications treating the field of book science were published in Estonian language in 1918–1944. The analysis of these publications demonstrates a considerable rise in the number of publications on book history during the Year of the Book which was celebrated in 1935–1936. By the 1930s book studies had become an independent field of research which tackled both historical and contemporary issues. The article also includes a thematic analysis of the publications, which are divided into eight groups: general treatments, research on printing, publishing, book dissemination, book art, studies of a concrete book, statistical analysis and works on bibliophilism. As to the thematic structure of the publications, general treatments were the most numerous (34), history of printing, book dissemination, studies on a concrete book and book art were also popular topics of research whereas the smallest number of publications (8) were devoted to bibliophilism. The researchers of that time have made a valuable contribution in the development of book research by gathering rich factual data, elaborating the basic principles of book statistics, compiling the first general treatments of book history. During the first post-war decade, the Stalinist era, research on the book history of the the period of independence in 1918–1940 was discontinued. The treatment of the topics connected with publishing and distribution of books in 1918–1940 enlivened only during the 1970s. The leading researcher Mare Lott has written articles published in Estonian and in foreign languages. The results of her reasearch are presented most completely in her unpublished dissertation. For the larger public they are available in the collective monograph “The Estonian Book 1525–1975”, issued in 1978. Numerous diploma works and Bachelor’s thesis have been written on this period under her guidance, but the results of these works have not been published. Since perestroika the ideological constraints in the treatment of the period disappeared, but the research of the book branch of this era has not been very intensive. Among the most outstanding achievements are the collections of articles dedicated to the two leading book reserachers Fr. Puksoo and R. Antik. A research group has been formed in the Tallinn University to prepare a comprehensive work on the book branch of that period which would tackle the topic from the contemporary viewpoint.

BIBLIOGRAFIJOS KLASIFIKAVIMO IDĖJOS TARPUKARIO LIETUVOJE (ISTORINIS IR LOGINIS POŽIŪRIS)
Authors: ČEPYTĖ JULIJA
Published: January 2019

The aim of the article has been to analyse the research object (the spread of the ideas of classifying bibliography in Lithuania of that period) on the basis of historical and logical aspects in context of book science and bibliography science, their quality, their scientific and practical value and place in the science of bibliography. The main focus of attention in Lithuania was maintened on bibliographical practice, not theory. That is why ideas of classification of bibliography were scarce, and were mainuly reflected in teaching aids of V. Ruzgas (1937) and V. Biržiška (1940–1941).Multi-aspects classification was popular (widely used) both in Lithuania and abroad. Out of wellknown available variants of socio-cultural classification activity in bibliography scholars used to chotose easten (Russian) direction, as the most interesting and mature approach.The article has explored V. Ruzgas’ multi-aspect classification of bibliography based on M. Schelkunov (1926) and that of V. Biržiška’s based on E. Schamurin (1933).In the Lithuania of that time there was a lack of the analysis and critical approach in the field of world bibliography classification ideas, but there existed a hidden reflection of the classification process, expressed by the original classification behaviours of Lithuanian book scientists and bibliographers. They either ignored some foreign ideas or uncritically reflected them in their works, or applied some of them for their needs with minor changes, mainly in the sphere of terminology.Kinds of bibliography that appeared in classifications, the terms used by Lithuanian authors were beneficial for specialists training, and forming of professional terminology and science of bibliography in Lithuania. Professional erudition of Lithuanian bibliographers enabled them to work on the level of achievements in bibliography science of that time.

Archivistics has long traditions in Western Europe, whereas in Lithuania it was a part of other country’s archyvistics for a long time. After the restoration of independence in 1990, the situation of archivistics has been changing rapidly in Lithuania. It has become an integral part of Communication and information science instead of being part of history. On the ground of the articles written by archives researchers from West European, English speaking countries and Russia, the concept and development of archivistics are reviewed in the article. Research on archivistics definition has been made as well as the main aspects of its development (from point of view of its object, objectives and methods) have been indicated here. The above mentioned aspects have been considered according to Theo Thomassen attitude towards the development of archivistics. The structure of the archivistics and its relations with other sciences (history, information sciences, law, sociology etc.) are revealed in the article. The interdisciplinary character of archivistics has been shown here too. It has also been discussed how the archivistics has been fixated on the institutional level as well. There is a lack of research on archivistics concept in Lithuania. After the research on definitions used both here and abroad, it should be noted that archivistics in Lithuania might be characterized as the whole of ideas about nature of records created by persons and organizations; principles and methods of management, preservation and research of such a records. The stages of the development of the archivistics and the main research tendencies in Lithuania are indicated in the article. It has been pointed out that archivistics is represented by public organizations in Lithuania and is itself being represented by taking part in the work of international organizations.

Lithuanian ABC-books being the most popular Lithuanian printings in the 19th century among other publications of mass demand as calendars, catechisms, prayer-books, books of songs, today became an unique part of Lithuanian printed heritage. That was especially characteristic for the Lithuanian ACBbooks of Lithuania Major and Lithuania Minor3 of the first part of the 19th century. An anonymous ABC-book Moksłas skaytima raszta lietuwiszka (1759–1867) published for Lithuania Major population was reissued 76 times. An ABC-book Naujas pibelis prepared by a priest and superintendent of Karaliaučius Johann Gottlieb Weiss (1762–1819) and addressed to Lithuanians living in Lithuania Minor was published 13 times4. No copy of the most of the editions survived till our days, and the ones that did survive are considered as unique or rare copies in the Lithuanian classification of rarities. A copy of Naujas pibelis (RB. 23. a. 4804) at the British Library in London is a unique example of Johann Gottlieb Weiss ABC-book edition that was not yet recorded in the publications of the Lithuanian national bibliography. The comparative analysis of the British Library copy and other three copies of the ABC-book editions that were issued before 18505 denies speculations that the British Library copy could be printed in 1795. According to the peculiarities of its contents and polygraphic design it resembles most the examples of editions of the third to fifth decades of the 19th century. Analysis of the book de visu also confirms the fact that it is a copy of unknown edition of the ABC-book prepared by Johann Gottlieb Weiss, but not a work of supposedly Johann Friedrich Zöllner as it is recorded in the catalogue of the British Library.

Published: January 2019

Archives, museums and libraries appeared in the whirl of changes inspired by the introduction of new communication technology which initiated transition from print to digital culture. The time of change is the time of creating future visions and scenarios of archives, museums and libraries. These institutions are frequently called „memory institutions“ in order to higlight their common roles in communicating memory. Often speculations and metaphors of memory institutions (e.g. library/archive as computer, digital repositories etc.) lack clear understanding of what memory is. Therefore, the main objective of this article is to define and evaluate paradigms of memory communication, which determine strategies of cultural heritage dissemination in the contemporary archives, museums and libraries, and assess both their roots and future perspectives. For this purpose current knowledge about communication of memory in archival science, museology and library science is summarised; major principles of memory communication in archives, libraries and museums are generalised, Abstractbasing on the theories of memory; and current paradigms of memory communication as well as their development are analysed, relying on the ars memoriae research. Two paradigms of memory communication have been distinguished: memory-as-computer and memory-as-theater. It is concluded that communication of memory requires integration of two dimensions: 1) social, which covers contextualisation of cultural heritage resources with reference to present needs of societies and 2) narrative, which refers to meaningful structures that transform heritage objects into meaningful stories of the past. It is concluded that memory-as-computer paradigm neglects the necessity of heritage contextualization and interpretation because it relies on the statement that there is a universal code for representation and management of any information. With increasing volumes of cultural heritage available online these collections may become meaningless to users. The paradigm of memory-as-theater demonstrates an increased interest to the new ways of interaction between users and heritage objects in the digital environment; however, the same as the first paradigm it ignores social objectives and context for communication of memory. In this light, the third paradigm, providing an integral approach to all dimensions of memory communication should be developed.

MARTYNO JANKAUS IR PRŪSŲ LIETUVIŲ TAUTINĖS KULTŪRINĖS VEIKLOS ATSPINDYS „VARPO“ PUSLAPIUOSE (1889–1905)
Authors: POCYTĖ SILVA
Published: January 2019

“Varpas” is the newspaper, published in the years 1889–1905 in the Prussian Lithuania (Lithuania Minor). It was intended for people from the Lithuania Major belonging to the Tsarist Russia at that time, where the Lithuanian language press in Latin letters was prohibited by the Empire government in 1864–1904. The main goals of the article are: (a) to highlight the culture movement aspirations of Martynas Jankus as the most representative figure of Prussian Lithuanians (lietuvininkai), as well as other lietuvininkai culture movement members; (b) to analyse the most important national actualities in Prussian Lithuania at that time; and (c) to introduce the opinion about lietuvininkai way of living to the Lithuania Major people. All this is made on the basis of materials from the “Varpas” publications. Such analysis is possible because of the fact that we can find important Lithuanian culture figures such as Martynas Jankus, Morta Zauniūtė, Jurgis Lapinas, etc. among the “Varpas” editors. The problems of the Lithuanian culture situation in Prussian Lithuania were also pointed by outstanding Lithuania Major culture workers, such as Vincas Kudirka, Jonas Basanavičius, Jonas Šliūpas, etc.The theme is new and actual for the following reasons. In spite of rather wide research studies on the nationalist movement by Vincas Kudirka, reflected from “Varpas” social and national aspirations, our historians still didn’t pay actual attention to the same activities by Martynas Jankus in Lithuanian historiography. We can define some actual and predominant themes in “Varpas” publications: (a) local nationality situation and the problem of lietuvininkai denationalization; (b) the decreasing number of local Lithuanian-speaking people; (c) cultural and political activities of lietuvininkai; and (d) national collaboration and contacts between Lithuanians from Prussian Lithuania and Lithuania Major, including obstruction aspects here.The analysis of actual texts allowed us the following conclusion. Lithuanians in Lithuania Major understood the Lithuanian culture societies in Prussian Lithuania as an appropriate possibility to realize their own national and political aspirations. Anyway, the integration process of all people from both Lithuanias, separated historically by the Nemunas river at that time, was very problematic because of a different political, confessional and cultural situation in the period of the end of the 19th–beginning of 20th Centuries here. The ideas of joint Lithuanian culture movement were first pointed by the most active lietuvininkai culture figures, including Martynas Jankus. On the other hand, the main part of common lietuvininkai people were defined locally by a conservative understanding of their living area, determined by different political, cultural and economic life experience as compared with the situation in Lithuania Major.
LIETUVIŲ KALBOS DRAUDIMO INTERPRETACIJA 1889 m. „VARPO“ PUSLAPIUOSE
Authors: TIJŪNĖLIENĖ ONA
Published: January 2019

In all times, the status of the Lithuanian language has been associated with the development of Lithuanian state and its people as well as with the changing historical factors. At the end of the 19th century, the intellectuals enshrined the ideas of statehood and freedom. The first Lithuanian newspapers “Aušra” (1883–1886) and “Varpas” (1889–1905) are symbols of the national revival. The aim of this research is to reveal the essence of interpretations published in the newspaper “Varpas” (1889) concerning the language prohibition policy in Lithuania.The “Varpas” trends met the natural expectations of the Lithuanian nation in the end of the 19th century, especially to preserve the native language, while newspaper publishers’ arguments revealed the weakness of the czar’s government strategy regarding the Lithuanian language: Latin letters are connected with the Lithuanian language from the beginning of Christianity in the Lithuania (1387) and the institutional education; the most important criterion for renouncing the Russian alphabet is the nation’s decision. The Latin alphabet is a truly national thing; the prohibition to use the Lithuanian language in public life can be considered as a manipulation of the nation from the religious point of view, as part of the assimilation policy which forces Lithuanians to abandon not only their native language, but also their faith; participation of the church in politics shows its great moral decline.The low national self-awareness of Lithuanian families, scarce examples of a positive relation between the Lithuanian language and Lithuanian intellectuals (medics, priests), students’ receptivity to foreign language elements tattered confidence among Lithuanians. Therefore “Varpas” publishers decided to perform a mission – to explain the ways how to unite, to protect the nation’s foundation – its language, and to strengthen national self-awareness.

Fourty seven percent of the repertoire of Lithuanian literature published in Lithuania Minor in the period 1808–1941 consists of religious literature. The publishing of this literature was promoted by the Evangelical Lutheran Church and the Pietistic religious movement which originated in the 18th century. The Kaunas Country Public Library preserves a collection of Lithuanian hymnals published in Lithuania Minor in the years 1850–1936. The collection consists of 142 hymnals which make 34.7% of the hymnals published in the years 1808–1936. It contains rare editions: 4 uniques, 11 curios, 15 especially rare hymnals. An important part of the cultural heritage of the books that reflect the manners and religious practices of people in this region is binding of hymnals, super-ex-libris and provenances. Wafers, stamps and vignettes – promotional marks of book binders – allow identifying the authors of hymnals and super-ex-librises; 74 books are signed with various marks. There are 73 personal names among the marks of the hymnal collection. The major part of the provenances consists of marks of property (58), promotional marks of book binders (14), stamps (10), superexlibrises (9), exlibrises (1) and marginalia (17). The property records and marginalia perpetuated names and place-names, dates connected to the book owners and their relatives, fragments of favorite religious texts and records of important life events. It is a sign of the extinct culture of Lithuania Minor, which remained on the pages of the publications. The books of Lithuania Minor are rare because of the historical and political circumstances of the region, a decay of lowquality paper used in the 19th and the first part of the 20th century, and small book editions. Due to the small number of extant copies and the provenances they contain, the collection is an important part of Lithuania Minor printing and cultural heritage, which complements Lithuanian national bibliography.

The article the discusses theoretical and me­thodical premises of the culture of reading in 1918–1940 in Lithuania. The culture of reading is interpreted as a dual system of practical and intelectual abilities, required in the reading pro­cess. The subject is analysed with distinguishing between direct (propaganda of reading, books and library services, also informational, cultural and educational library services that intesify readership) and indirect methods (organisation of the system of libraries, gathering of reading materials, bibliographical work), elaborated in theoretical and methodical library science pub­lications of Lithuanian and translated foreign authors. In Lithuanian publications, access to books and periodicals stand as the priority task of librarianship (V. Biržiška, J. Slapšinskas (Rim­antas), V. Ruzgas). Authors described methods of working with readers, unfolding the content of direct and indirect education of readers. Pro­paganda of library services, books and reading, psychological judgement of the readership in the library, bibliographical work (V. Biržiška, V. Ruzgas, J. Slapšinskas (Rimantas), V. Ru­zgas), appliation of sociological statistical re­search methods (V. Ruzgas, R. Burokas), policy of library collection supplement that matched the needs of the educational process and readers’ interests (V. Biržiška, R. Burokas, J. Slapšinskas (Rimantas) would make the core of Lithuanian culture of reading theory. Lithuanian authors mostly cited Russian pedagogues, psycholo­gists (N. Rubakin, V. Vachterov, V. Vladislavlev (I. Gulbinski), V. Nevski and others). Methods of discretional (conscious, critical) reading were built according to the Western scientists (E. Faguet). There was also a special interest in the theory of self-education by Russian bibliop­sychologist N. Rubakin. During the period un­der analysis, translations of the following authors were published: P. Ladewig’s textbook of librari­anship, which included the basic knowledge of the culture of reading formation in librar­ies, N. Rubakin’s studies of science populariza­tion and self-sustaining reading techniques, and articles by Western pedagogues, literary critics (G. Brandes, E. Dévaud and others) on the topi­cal matters concerning reading.

The paper deals with the international dissemination of scholarly publications in a peripheral country before World War II. Many studies have indicated that scientific success accumulates to few prominent scholars, institutions and countries, while the actors with modest premises are left on the margins of the scholarly community. Robert Merton called this phenomenon the Matthew effect in science. Some scientists regard this effect as a pathology, whereas others consider it inevitable and advantageous. Merton himself considered that there are some countervailing processes which limit the Matthew effect. The hypothesis of this paper is that in a peripheral country like Finland, the noncommercial distribution of scholarly publications, may have served as one counterforce to the Matthew effect. The focus is on the exchange of publications which was a dominant way of distributing scholarly publications at the time. The development of the exchange relations of two Finnish learned societies indicates that the exchange balanced the competition for scientific success between major and minor countries. The exchange could open contacts with the established scientific centres, but also with young societies in small or peripheral countries. Contacts with the established scientific centres were often not as profitable as those with smaller institutions which concentrated on similar research problems.

In particular, we need to know more about how, in the past, information was transmitted from place to place and from period to period. We shall need to know about how roads functioned. We shall need to know much more about inland waterways and coastal trade, and about transoceanic routes. The development of postal, banking and credit systems must be studied, as must the development of national and later international telegraphic systems. New forms of information transmission introduced in the last two centuries, such as photography, the telephone, cinema, radio, television, video and the web, need to be better understood. All this requires that we view book history in a much broader context, i. e. as part of the history of communication. The integration of the history of the book and of communication will ensure that the subject will be large enough to be internally consistent, and that it will be too large and too important ever to suffer the fate of smaller and less relevant disciplines.

The increasing competition in the book market provides the basis for the relevance of research in the field of book advertising: advertising affects the customer’s perception and attitude, provokes interest in an advertised book or induces to buy it; on the other hand, employment of advertising in smaller sectors of business is related to a greater risk. The object of the study was the influence of advertising on customer in the book market. The scientific-practical problem was the ways of systematising and evaluating the influence of advertising on book business. The polysemantic, wide and unspecified environment of influence, interdisciplinary character, and abundance of evaluation criteria complicate the solution of this problem.The modes of influence of advertising on the book market are distinguished and the factors determining this influence are discussed to analyse the way an individual is influenced by advertising and what differences are crucial among several ways of experiencing the same phenomenon. Analysis of different modes of advertising and experiencing advertising incapacitates a better understanding of the potential of the influence of book advertising. Several phenomenographic techniques were employed to analyse data collected via unstructured interview. The unstructured interview method was used to identify the ways advertising affects the customer; the method was employed to analyse the experience, views, attitudes of customers, related to the choice of books, estimation and reading, the role advertising plays in choosing a book, the factors that shape the attitude of a reader towards a book and incite buying it. The differences in and the circumstances of the influence of advertising, as well as the factors differentiating the influence were clarified in the course of study.The research could be useful for book publishing and saling enterprises as well as for marketing specialists of the mentioned area in planning and implementing book advertising campaigns and in seeking to manage more efficiently the flows of information and communication. The research gives an insight into the potential of book advertising in the market framework, helps in making a right choice and controlling the mode of influence.
BOOK MARKETING AND SOCIAL MEDIA: HOW TO SELL BOOKS TO GENERATION Y
Authors: ŠERPYTYTĖ AGNĖ
Published: January 2019

Social media are a recent phenomenon in the Internet. Social media software tools enabled any person to create and publish his/her content on a global scale. Like any societal process, it does not occur in isolation. This thesis analyzes the connection among Generation Y, new media and social media and its impact on the publishing business and the role of book and publishing in society in general.The topic of the article is the relation between social media and Generation Y (in this article, the term Generation Y is used to describe the generation of the whole world that was growing up surrounded by the new media). The goal of the study was to demonstrate that social media are a proper way to attract the attention of Generation Y consumers. In the article, it is demonstrated that characteristics of Generation Y, its relation with new media can be recognized in the phenomenon of social media. Social media are described as a natural evolution of the Internet as it is being customized by users according to their preferences and qualities.Two main questions are analyzed in the article: how the characteristics of Generation Y and its relation with new media affect the role of the book in society and how social media change the relations between society and businesses (publishing business among them). To answer them, the following tasks were set: to analyze the characteristics of Generation Y; to study the attitude of Generation Y towards the book through the prism of the new media and to predict the future role of the book in society; to study social media and social media marketing and to describe their relation with Generation Y and new media.
LIETUVIŠKOS KNYGOS KUNIGO JOSIJO LORCKO (1723–1785) KOLEKCIJOJE KOPENHAGOJE
Authors: KLEIN MANFRED
Published: January 2019

In the Kingdom of Denmark, as was the case in the rest of Europe, the 18th century was a period of bibliophilia and large private libraries. Josias Lorck (1723–1785), a protestant pastor in the German-speaking Frederick’s Church parish in Copenhagen who distinguished himself through his specialisation in Bibles in all the languages of the world, was one of the most outstanding collectors of his time. His collection, which at its peak counted over 5,000 different editions and at least as many etchings with biblical themes, was one of the Danish capital’s famous attractions even during his time. A catalogue of his collection, which was compiled posthumously in 1787, revealed that the collection also included some Lithuanian texts. According to the catalogue, there were six editions of the New Testament, the Psalms of David and the entire Holy Scripture which had been produced in Konigsberg between 1701 and 1755, partially as bilingual texts in German and Lithuanian.This article describes the formation of the collection and follows the complete Bible collection along its journey from Copenhagen to the possession of the State Library of Baden Wurttemberg in Stuttgart, Germany. Furthermore, the article provides a short description of the Lithuanian editions according to format/binding method, title, content and current condition, including any ownership marks. It seems Abstractthat Lorck personally marked his Bibles as his property. The question of the six Bibles’ origins is particularly interesting. The factors which are initially relevant are those regarding the identitiesof any intermediate owners and how the Bibles ultimately fell into the collector’s hands. Without the relevant ownership marks in the books, it is of course difficult to answer this question, especially given that Lorck’s writings contain very little information regarding the earlier Lithuanian Bibles that he acquired. This means that it is currently possible to establish reliably the previous owner of only one item. Probable previous owners of some other items have been identified by reference to an auction catalogue.Lorck acquired some 18th century Lithuanian texts on linguistics, perhaps in view of his Lithuanian Bibles, and possibly even along with them when they were purchased at auctions. After his death, these were sold at a series of three auctions along with the rest of his 20,000 book-strong library. Although Lorck’s Bibles bore an ownership mark, this was unfortunately not the case for all of his books. As a result, the location of these Lithuanian texts is currently unclear. The Royal Library of Copenhagen, which may directly or indirectly have acquired them, does not presently have a comprehensive overview of all the books from Lorck’s estate in their possession.
VIENTISOS KULTŪROS PAVELDO SKAITMENINĖS APLINKOS KŪRIMAS: STANDARTIZACIJOS ASPEKTAS
Authors: BLIŪDŽIUVIENĖ NIJOLĖ
Published: January 2019

The need for standards in the process of creating a single European information system of the cultural heritage as well as the premise for the standardized integration of Lithuanian memory institutions and the experience of such integration were the objects of the study. Cultural integration and standardized integration are presented as a conceptual basis associated with memory institutions’ participation in standardization work, finding its expression in creating the virtual information system of the cultural heritage. The concept of standardized integration, introduced by the author, generates a new cultural policy and could be considered a strategic and innovative activity by libraries, museums and archives. The documentation of projects for cultural heritage digitization and digital content management at memory institutions, initiated by the European Commission and relevant Lithuanian bodies, provide no information about the participation of project partners in standardization activities on national, European or international levels, their priorities concerning standardization work, the impact of their participation for seeking cross-sectoral agreement on the application of shared standards and the applicability of their know-how gained from participation in standardization activities within their institutions.The evaluation of standardization in the context of Lithuanian memory institutions highlights the experience and achievements against the background of the cultural and standardized integration. The substantial transformation of LST/TC 47 “Information and documentation” coincided with grand projections for cultural heritage digitization undertaken by memory institutions at the initial stages of implementing the project “Creation of the Integrated Virtual Library Information System”. The international, European and national standards, as well as other normative documents invoked in creating this information system, facilitated setting up the digital cultural heritage databank available on the Website epaveldas.lt.This innovative project was of vital importance for the national cultural policy, because significant legal acts regulating the aims, goals and methods of digitization at memory institutions participating in the creation of the integrated interaction-based system of cultural heritage had been adopted. From the viewpoint of standardization, the methodology for the interaction of archives, libraries and museums is based on a legal act dealing with the application of standards, which obliges the project partners to apply shared national standards and normative documents for the description of digital and data content, metadata coding, the preservation (archiving) of data and creation of the digital content.

The cross-media publishing is an unexplored subject in media studies in Lithuania. The object of the study was cross-media publishing by dailies in Lithuania. The objective was to present cross-media and to assess their use by daily newspapers. The tasks were to do research on cross-media concept and definition, to analyse the development of cross-media and to study how cross-media products are created, to explore the reasons for making a decision to develop cross-media strategies in publishing houses and to present the upcoming challenges of such a choice, to investigate the use of cross-media by Lithuania’s dailies.In summary, it should be noted that the evolution of cross-media practices and a bigger integration in newspapers are related with the number of media used for creating a story. It should be perceived that each medium is equally important. The conclusion is made that more professional fitting of the content and a bigger amount of content migration between different media means a bigger integration. The number of cross-media journalists and a successful fight with cross-media challenges can be used to indicate the level of success in cross-media as well.Later on, the research was designed to investigate the use of cross-media in major Lithuanian dailies. To get the initial idea of the situation in using cross-media in Lithuanian dailies, an analysis of newspapers’ website content and document analysis was made. Then, considering the findings, the news editors were asked to answer the questionnaires about collaboration among different media. The data have shown that the biggest newspapers are practicing cross-media, and some are very well informed about newsroom convergence trends. The level of integration differs in different newspapers.
ASMENINIŲ BIBLIOTEKŲ PAVELDAS LIETUVOS MOKSLŲ AKADEMIJOS VRUBLEVSKIŲ BIB¬LIOTEKOJE

Based on the collection management practices established in the Wróblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences, the article deals with problems that arise in managing personal collections and seeking to bring them to readers’ attention. The article outlines how collection management is carried out in the Wróblewski Library and describes different methods used to foster access to three of the more valuable collections. It is stated that presenting a personal collection as an entirety on the library’s web page partly solves issues that arise when publications from a single collection are dispersed into different holdings due to shortage of space. The case when a library presents a collection whose books are physically kept not in the library (in this case a virtual catalogue of the collection is to be created) is the subject of a separate discussion.
SAVILAIDA SOVIETINĖJE LIETUVOJE: ISTORIOGRAFINIS ASPEKTAS

Published: January 2019

The object of this work is samizdat publications in Lithuania during the Soviet occupation. The aim of this study was to identify what types of research have published by now and how to develop the further analysis of samizdat.The study has shown, that Lithuanian researchers analyze samizdat in three different aspects: as part of dissident movement, as part of the Lithuanian press history, and as a unique phenomenon. The terms defining samizdat are not used systematically, but the most frequent terms are samizdat, underground press, illegal press, and dissident press. There are diferent opinions about the emergence of samizdat. Some historians associate the beginning of samizdat with “Lietuvos Katalikų Bažnyčios kronika”, some say that samizdat is part of illegal press started in the nineteenth century, and others that samizdat emerged in the 1950s.Different authors suggest different classification models of the underground press. The basis of all classifications is the division into religious and secular press, but the terminology is different in every research. Also, there is no consensus in historiography, how the secular and the religious forms of samizdat are connected with each other. Some historians analyze only the religious underground press and ignore the other types of samizdat. Some say that other types of underground press have already been studied and nothing new can be said. Some scientists look for the ways to show connections between different types of samizdat.Only E. Jaseliūnas and V. Stonienė tried to analyze samizdat in the aspects of book science: to examine the authorship of articles, printing specifics and release date issues. There are only a few works about the secular periodical samizdat, and there is absolutely no analysis of the non-periodical underground press. The further scientific analysis requires a deeper study of sources; it is necessary to examine the recently detected samizdat press and search for more of it, because not all samizdat press has been found and registered.
LIETUVOS PERSONALINIAI BIBLIOGRAFIJOS LEIDINIAI SOVIETMEČIU

The article deals with the analysis of Lithuanian personal bibliographic publications issued within the period of 1948–1989. The analysis was performed by the author who followed statistical and analytical principles and it revealed the specifics of subjects, objects and results of this field of bibliographic activity. In Soviet times the number of personal bibliographic publications constantly increased and both professional and non-professional bibliographic work was carried out in an active way. The analysis of contents of personal bibliographic publications demonstrated that in the Soviet period great attention was drawn to preparation and issue of personal bibliographic publications covering such spheres of activity as philological sciences, fiction and historical sciences. It was found out that the axiological function (regarding value and orientation) of personal bibliographic information was based on a social and pedagogic aspect peculiar to the analyzed period. The personal bibliographic information prepared in the Soviet period nowadays may successfully perform the cognitive, scientific research and socialization functions. Thus, we see that the major part of personal bibliographic publications issued in the Soviet period have survived and were left in Lithuanian libraries though they underwent strong “cleaning of stacks” in the first years of Independence and today they are used in case of necessity what proves their importance as of the source of history of science and culture. The article is aimed at carrying out the analysis of preparation, publishing and changes in the structure of Soviet-time personal bibliographic publications. The results of the analysis can be useful for science historians and specialists of bibliographic work.

The object of this article is the publishing of bilingual dictionaries in Lithuania in 1990−2010. The analysis of nowadays’ users of dictionaries and of scientific and statistical literature helps to predict the future of bilingual dictionaries in conditions of digital lexicography: the usage of traditional dictionaries tends to decrease, while the demand of digital bilingual dictionaries is growing. For this reason, in the presence of a huge number of digital dictionaries, paper dictionaries will be published only in small editions in the near future.

She gathered a personal scientific library which was used in her work. The library contains 379 pieces. The professor`s personal library mainly includes periodicals and books, but also other materials such as personal artefacts are found in the collection. Another, family-type, shared library exists at home of V. Stonienė, but for her it was only an additional source of information used to enrich and complement her knowledge.An analysis and interpretation of all the pieces of her personal library are presented in this article. All the material was clasified according to the lingual, thematical, quantative, and chronological principles. The classification met the requirements of the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC). The overview of the personal library of V. Stonienė made it possible to better understand her personality, principles of work and life.
KNYGOS ISTORIJOS POPULIARINIMAS ESTIJOS VADOVĖLIUOSE IR PERIODINĖJE SPAUDOJE (XIX A.–1917 M.) (ANGLŲ K.)

The academic research on book history in Estonia started in the 1920s when the conditions of an independent state made it possible to develop national science on a full scale. Prior to the emergence of scholarly studies, Estonian intellectuals used to concentrate on the popularisation of sciences. The article deals with the communication of popular knowledge on book history in the Estonian language during the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century (until 1917). The sample includes textbooks and articles in the periodical press. No separate books on this topic were issued during the period under study.In order to establish the representation of book-historical topics in Estonian textbooks and periodical publications, the study employs the bibliometric approach and thematic analysis. The latter is based on the model elaborated by T. R. Adams and N. Barker. Among textbooks, readers and special history textbooks were chosen for the study. The sample of periodical press includes all the news and articles on the topic in all the Estonian-language newspapers and magazines identified on the basis of the card catalogue of the Archive Library of the Estonian Literary Museum.The results of the study demonstrate that one third of the readers issued during the period under study and nearly all history textbooks included pieces of reading on book and printing history. The first treatments of the topic in periodicals were issued in the 1820s. However, the more regular communication of the topic started in the 1880s. The press gave preference to the Estonian book history and the history of writing. Thus, the treatment of the topics helped to shape the national consciousness of Estonian people, enlightening the origins and development of the national book culture.

В центре нашего исследования – вклад Вацлава Ластовского в развитие белорусской науки о книге, освещение его основных положений о книжной культуре Беларуси. Одновременно, заявленная тема требует определения хронологических рамок, связанных с возникновением науки о книге с начала ХІХ в. и её современным состоянием в Беларуси, а также предполагает и некоторое сужение её содержательного наполнения, так как избран персональный контекст (не столько сравнительный – с вкладом В. Ластовского, сколько архитипический, выявляющий роль той или иной персоны в развитии белорусского книговедения).Объектом исследования выступает белорусская наука о книге в контексте персонального книговедения. Цель статьи – обратить внимание на актуальность, роль и значение персонального книговедения в развитии науки о книге, обозначить предметную область данных исследований, показать на примере эволюции книговедческих знаний в Беларуси, что развитие науки осуществляется благодаря не только и не столько сумме накопленных знаний, а исключительно благодаря появлению фундаментальных программных трудов, которые определяют движение науки, её алгоритм,нацеленный на перспективу. Подобным трудом для белорусской науки о книге, несомненно, является как «Гісторыя беларускай (крыўскай) кнігі» Вацлава Ластовского, так и его персона.
