Program Overview

Mission/Objectives:
The objectives of the Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences include publishing research in book studies, bibliography, librarianship, cultural history, document restoration, science dissemination, and research of written heritage. Most of the publications consist of various subject and personal bibliographies and catalogues of documents stored in the library’s holdings and scientific publications of sources. Three volumes of “Bibliotekininkystė ir bibliografija” (“Librarianship and bibliography”) were published from 1961 to 1966. In 2004, a continuous two-year collection of research papers titled “Lietuvos mokslų akademijos biblioteka”(“Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences”) was launched. In 2009, following the change of the library’s name to the Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences, it began publishing under the new title “Lietuvos mokslų akademijos Vrublevskių biblioteka” (“The Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences”). The publication was renamed in 2022 by decision of the Research Council of the Library to “LMA Vrublevskių bibliotekos darbai” (“Proceedings of the Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences”). In 2013, the publication’s content and structure were revised. An international editorial board was established, and the publication began to be peer-reviewed by two scholars. Since 2015, each scientific article has been evaluated by two reviewers. Since 2021, it has become an ongoing publication of scientific papers, produced and published annually. In addition to scientific articles, it also features information reflecting the activities and results of the library. To date, 12 volumes of the “Proceedings of the Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences” have been published. Each volume has a print run of 100–200 copies. The aim of the journal is to attract as many Lithuanian and foreign researchers as possible by publishing texts in different languages.
