Summary/Abstract: Collector and bibliographer Władysław Trębicki (1806-1861) in the family estate Linowo (the former Pruzany district, now Belarus) collected manuscripts and prints, focusing on polonic’s and materials about Polish history and literature. In the archives and libraries of Vilnius and Krakow, Trębicki’s letters to Adam Zawadzki, Adam Benedykt Jocher, Józef Ignacy Kraszewski and others have been preserved. Correspondence allows to determine the titles of purchased or exchanged books and magazines, a time when a bibliophile became seriously interested in scientific works on history, literature, bibliography and also suplement bibliographic information about old polonic’s. The library in Linowo with many thousand book’s has become a bibliographer’s workplace. About 2,000 items have been preserved from the former collection of Władysław Trębicki - volumes of old prints and books of the XIX century. This fragment is currently in the deposit of Książnica Zamojska im. Stanisław Kostka Zamoyski in Zamość as part of the Klemensowski Book Collection of the Zamoyski Family.
