Speranza i Mickiewicz
This article researches the translations of two Adam Mickiewicz’s ballads published in Ireland by Lady Wilde (known under the pen-name Speranza), both versions probably unknown to Polish scholars. Simultaneously, it is a case study for exploring nineteenth-century lesser known Victorian poetry, retrieved from both traditional and electronic sources, from a librarian’s point of view. Two ballads: Czaty (The Waivode) and Trzech Budrysów (Three Sons of Budris) were first published in The Nation, December 1848, as anonymous poems “from Russian”. Subsequently, they were published in anthologies, with the same misleading information on the original language, at one time attributed to Pushkin. Lady Wilde was credited as their translator. Lady Wilde very likely wrote her own version of the poems that she had found either in English, French or Italian. A hypothesis is suggested that she used a translation from Pushkin, who published Mickiewicz’s poems in Russia without credits to the Polish author because of censorship. The present author searched for the material at the National Library o f Ireland and at the Trinity College Library, Dublin. It appears that electronic sources were useless in this case, except for the initial discovery of the poems in digitized books online. It appears that nineteenth-century poetry in digitized periodicals and databases such as the Wellesley Index to Victorian Periodicals, is usually not indexed. Hopefully, this can be improved in the future.This article researches the translations of two Adam Mickiewicz’s ballads published in Ireland by Lady Wilde (known under the pen-name Speranza), both versions probably unknown to Polish scholars.

Wykorzystanie metod programowania neurolingwistycznego (NLP) w kształtowaniu kultury organizacyjnej biblioteki
Neuro-linguistic programming is one of many methods used in the West to influence people’s attitudes towards work, their way of thinking and the motivation to work. Its originality stems from the fact that the method appeals in the main to non-material values such us: service orientation, social usefulness of one’s work, the sense of duty and satisfaction it gives, the resulting feeling of one’s high self-esteem. The NLP is included in the broadly-understood organizational culture applied in a given firm or an institution. The author maintains that thus understood neuro-linguistic programming can find its application in modem library practice and significantly improve modernization processes within its organizational culture.Neuro-linguistic programming is one of many methods used in the West to influence people’s attitudes towards work, their way of thinking and the motivation to work.

Komu było dedykowane dzieło Gwagnina Sarmatiae Europeae descripto? - rozwiązanie zagadki znanego polonicum XVI w.
This article addresses the problem of the original addressee of the dedication inscribed in the book entitled Sarmatiae Europeae descriptio by A. Gwagnin (Alessandro Guagnini). A unique copy of the book published in 1574 found by the author in Bibliothćque Mazarine in Paris has shed light on the question posed in the title. Gwagnin’s work was originally dedicated to Henry of Valois and it was only after the well-know string of historical events and his notorious flight from Poland (as he secretly left Poland to ascend the French throne) that the dedication was changed, on the initiative of the publisher, to that of Stephen Batory of Poland. This discovery changes the dating of the book adopted hitherto in available monographs and bibliographies.This article addresses the problem of the original addressee of the dedication inscribed in the book entitled Sarmatiae Europeae descriptio by A.

Repozytorium instytucjonalne jako czynnik wspomagający rozwój nauki w środowisku akademickim
Now that much of the civilized world is pursuing information that interests, appeals and enriches knowledge, the development of science and research can only be maintained if access to relevant publications and a possibility of sharing the knowledge on the results and conclusions of carried out research are properly secured. Addressing the demands emphasizing indispensable right of man to education and information formulated by the academic community, the idea of Open Access (of free and unlimited access to publications in science and the humanities) has followed. The article discusses setting up relevant repositories with a particular emphasis on institutional repositories at universities. The advantages and disadvantages of the idea are evaluated and discussed as well as relevant legal aspects and the place the institutional repository can occupy in scientific communication. The intention of the authors is to persuade the academic and scientific community in Poland to participate in setting up repositories, which would substantially enrich the propagation of knowledge and, within a given time perspective, enhance its better development.Now that much of the civilized world is pursuing information that interests, appeals and enriches knowledge, the development of science and research can only be maintained if access to relevant publications and a possibility of sharing the knowledge on the results and conclusions of carried out research are properly secured.
