Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to analyze biobibliographic, thematic bibliographic and metabiographic editions of the period of independence of Ukraine, dedicated to the heroes-fighters for independent Ukraine 1917–1921, as well as bibliographic editions that include materials about these events in the context of formation of collective memory and national consciousness of the Ukrainian people, as well in the context of processes of the decommunization and creation of the national Ukrainian bibliography. The methodology of the research is to apply the principles of historicism, systematic-comparative, and source analysis. Scientific novelty: it was the first attempt in the Ukrainian bibliography to explore the history of going out and content of the bibliographic indexes dedicated to the heroes of the liberation struggle in 1917–1921. Conclusions. Longlasting non-recognition by the leadership of the state of the fighters for the independence of Ukraine of 1917–1921 as national heroes had a negative impact on the preparation of biobibliographical aids, dedicated to these figures, hindered the formation of the collective memory of the Ukrainian people and increased bifurcation of national consciousness of citizens. The revolutionary events at the turn of 2013–2014, the beginning of the Russian aggression against Ukraine and adoption of the law on decommunization did not deprive Ukrainian society of ambiguous attitude to national heroes of the liberation struggle 1917–1921. An example of this is the metabibliographic aids of the leading national libraries of Ukraine. The methodology of their conclusion is an obstacle to the creation of the Ukrainian national bibliography, which would be stand out among the Russian and Soviet.
