Abstract

The article characterizes V.P. Adrianova-Peretts’s memorial library that is currently divided into two parts stored in Rare Book and Manuscript Department of the SPSTL SD RAS (Novosibirsk) and the Library of the Institute of the Russian Literature (Pushkin House of the Russian Academy of Sciences) (Saint Petersburg). The collection is based on books purchased by V.N. Peretts (i.e., academician, V.P. Adrianova-Peretts’s husband). The library summarizes research interests because it includes books related to philology, history and literature search methodology, as well as ethnographic and folk books dedicated to various national cultures. The memorial library contains several rarities. 
 Authors analysed the library composition and sources of several books. Several inscriptions and autographs observed on the library books were submitted and analysed. Records of famous scientists (historians, ethnographers, philologists etc.) were detected among them. Unique D.S. Likhachyov’s inscriptions designed as ornaments of ancient Russian manuscripts were particularly noted.
