Abstract
In article gift inscriptions on books from the funds of the Lviv National Scientific Library of Ukraine named after V. Stefanyk, found in the process of preparation in the department of scientific bibliography of a multi-volume bibliographic index “Ukrainian book in Galicia, Bukovina, Transcarpathia, Volhynia and in exile, 1914–1939” are considered. The presence of inscriptions on books of this period indicates that gifts were one of the important sources of enrichment of public and private book collections, so they play an important role in studying the history of these libraries. A special role was played by the library of Shevchenko Scientific Society in Lviv and the book collection “Studion”, thanks to which Lviv National Scientific Library of Ukraine named after V. Stefanyk received the richest collection of Ukrainian. Some elements of the script play a bibliological role, in particular, help to supplement the bibliographic description in the absence of some of its components, especially the source information. They also contain additional information about the donor and the addressee, which allows the researcher to detail their biographies, reveal the range of family and friendly relations, scientific and social relationships. Keywords: Western Ukrainian and Ukrainian Emigration Book of 1914–1939, Lviv National Scientific Library of Ukraine named after V. Stefanyk, inscript, donor, addressee.
