Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to investigate the publishing activities of the Volyn Society, founded by representatives of the Ukrainian diaspora and later created on this basis by the Volyn Research Institute in Winnipeg, Canada. The result of their activities was the publication of a number of scientific works that are valuable sources for the history of Ukrainian culture and art and historical local lore and cultural region. The methodology consists of the application of the historical-chronological approach to the study of issues, as well as analytical, culturological methods in the study of the publication of scientific works of historical and cultural nature by the Institute of Experiments of Volyn. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the expansion and generalization of information about scientific publications of the Institute of Experiments of Volyn as a source base for studying the history and art of Ukrainian culture of the twentieth century. Conclusions. As a result of the research, it was established that the activity of the Violin Research Institute has a unique significance as a center of historical and cultural research of the region of Ukraine outside its mainland, accumulating the intellectual potential of Ukrainian diasporas. At the same time, the existence of such an institution and its scientific activity is a cultural phenomenon, which represents the possibility of multi-vector research on the example of one region, which, at the same time, raises a number of issues in the history of national culture and art. Numerous publications, which contain many archival and factual materials of both local and national importance, serve as a valuable source for research in the field of culture and art.
