Regional bibliography
(Kraevedcheskaia bibliografiia)

Users of the regional bibliographies are reminded that often those bibliographies are recommendatory rather than scholarly and may not be satisfactory for research purposes.

Unlike the national bibliographies, which attempt comprehensive registration of national book and periodical production and give selective indexes of the contents of periodicals, the regional bibliographies attempt to encompass the entire literature (books and articles) devoted to a given region within specific chronological limits. They are usually prepared by the central public library of the region on the basis of materials acquired, national and regional bibliographic registration, and an independent bibliographic search. Their periodicity varies from quarterly to irregular, but their titles are somewhat standardized. They can be identified through

Bibliographies about oblasti (regions) have in most cases a descriptive title, e.g., LITERATURA O...(VOLOGODSKOI OBLASTI) ZA...GOD (Vologda, 1961-, annual). The following Russian and Ukrainian oblast' and krai are covered under similar formats: Altaiskaia, Arkhangel'skaia, Astrakhanskaia, Brianskaia, Cheliabinskaia, Chernigovskaia, Chitinskaia, Irkutskaia, Ivanovskaia, Kaliningradskaia, Kaluzhskaia, Kemerovskaia, Khmel'nitskaia, Kievskaia, Kirovogradskaia, Krasnoiarskaia, Kuibyshevskaia, L'vovskaia, Moskovskaia, Murmanskaia, Novgorodskaia, Omskaia, Orlovskaia, Penzenskaia, Rostovskaia, Sakhalinskaia, Saratovskaia, Sverdlovskaia, Ternopol'skaia, Tul'skaia, Ul'ianovskaia, Volgogradskaia, Voronezhskaia, and Zapadnaia Sibir'.
