Lietuvių marijonų vienuolyno Čikagoje biblioteka ir jos muzikos skyrius
LTMarijonų vienuolyno Čikagoje biblioteka yra vertinga istoriniu, lituanistiniu ir muzikologiniu požiūriais. Čia esantys leidiniai atspindi daugiau nei šimtą metų trukusį lietuvių marijonų gyvenimą JAV. Norisi tikėti, kad ši biblioteka nebus išskaidyta ar išdalinta dabartinių kongregacijos vadovų, o lietuviškoji dalis ras vietą lietuvių bendruomenės archyvuose ir muziejuose. [Iš straipsnio, p. 121]
ENThe library of Lithuanian Marians in Chicago is described in the present article. This library reflects all the history of Lithuanian Marians in the US from the establishment of their monastery in 1913. The library was formed primarily from the personal collections of monks. Later, when the college was opened, books were obtained more systematically from the funds of the monastery. The library contains approximately 10,000 volumes. There are about 1,500 Lithuanian books among them. The oldest Lithuanian books are from the end of the 19th century. In the present research, a quantitative and thematic structure of the library is described. The books about music and collected music recordings are described in greater detail.
