English abstract

The report discusses the size and the general character of books of Greifswald provenance present in the collections of the Nicolaus Copernicus University Library in Torun. In October and November 1945, the books made their way to the newly established University from Pansin (pol. Pêzino). In 1943, they were deposited in Pansin by the University of Greifswald authorities in order to be shielded from the air raids of the allied forces. Following the shift in national boundaries after WW the II, the Greifswald collections ended up in the polish territory. The collections are discussed on the basis of a physical examination conducted in the NCU Library depositories. The “hands on”; method was necessary due to the fact that materials in the depository are organised by inventory numbers, which register items in order of their accession into the Library collection. Publications from Greifswald were identified within the collections by their unique binding, labels, ex-libris, as well as, stamps. The study concluded that the Greifswald collections of the NCU Library amount to 4665 volumes and 7319 bibliographic items, including old prints, several manuscripts and musical prints, 20 atlases, as well as, 19th and 20th-century books. Several publications were described in greater detail and presented in photographs.
