Summary/Abstract: The article contains a bibliography of bilingual Italian-Polish and Polish-Italian dictionaries, printed as books in the years 1989–2016. It seems that altogether there appeared 59 various lexicons, including 42 general dictionaries and 17 thematic dictionaries. That significant increase in the number of dictionaries published after 1989 compared to the previous periods has been a result of several causes; one of them is a long-standing popularity of Italian as a language of culture, literature, music, arts, tourism, cuisine and religion and of the interest in the socio-political situation of Italy. Another cause is the student exchange within the Erasmus Programme and a possibility of studying in Italy and building a professional career there.
