Margin Notes of Galician Church Old Printed Books of the 17th Centuries

The article is devoted to the collection of church old printed books of the 17th centuries, which are stored in the National Reserve “Davniy Halych” or are investigated by scientists of this institution during 1994-2018 years. The main objects of the studios were more than 50 liturgical books, which came from parishes of the Galician orthodox / greek-catholic church organization. Particular attention is paid to the problem of cataloging of printed memos, as well as their study in the context of the source-study perspective. The important element of the study consists of the margin notes, first of all represented by the offering texts that often inform contemporaries about the already nonexisting churches. However, unusual notes, such as a piece of a carol, chronicles or correction of liturgical texts through confessional motives occur on book pages.
