Summary/Abstract: In recent years, record books have been the subject of research not only for scientists but also for unprofessional genealogists. The Archive of the Koszalin-Kolobrzeg (Kołobrzeg) Diocese was established in 2003. The task of the staff was to take over from the parish archives the documentation created before 1945. The collection of 215 items of Catholic record books was extracted from the archives. They come from 39 Catholic parishes. After proper protection and development, they are now available in digital form to interested researchers. The catalog presented in the article contains the state of preservation and the enormous cognitive value of Catholic record books collected in the Koszalin archive.
