Abstract

Many centuries the Russian Orthodox Church was the mental leader in Russia. The Orthodox Church had monasteries and churches which accumulated many treasures. Among them were rich collections of manuscripts and books. The collections included chronicles and annals, Holy Bibles, books about Russian Saints, a lot of poems and novels. The libraries hadn’t a good condition for safety and investigation. Therefore it had many losses. The study of the collections was begun from the beginning of the 19th century. Rumyantsev Circle and the Empire Society of Russian History paid special attention to studying of the collections.
