Summary/Abstract: The history of dictionaries and lingual lexicons goes far into the past. One of the most famous dictionaries is Ambrosius Calepinus’ dictionary written in 16th century. The Library of the Theological and Pastoral Institute and Seminary of Rzeszow among its collection has two specimens of this dictionary, of which one of them contains very inter-esting inscriptions, marginal notes and ownership marks. Thanks to research devoted to this kind of traces it is possible to investigate the past of the certain volumes and to see how the thoughts and ideas of individual owners and readers were formed.
