Summary/Abstract: On the 19th of September 2019, the Faculty of Law and Administration of the Jagiellonian University organised an academic conference entitled “Łącząnas źródła”[“Sources connect us”]. The symposium was combined with the celebrations of the 90th birthday of Prof. Stanisław Grodziski, an outstanding legal historian, author of around 500 publications, and former Dean of the Faculty (1978–1981) and Vice-Rector of the University (1987–1990), who also has an Honorary Doctorate from the University of Wrocław. One of the significant areas of Prof. Grodziski’s academic activity is in the editing of legal history sources. The subject of the conference was therefore a great occasion to focus on Prof. Grodziski’s achievements in this field of study. In the jubilee part of the conference, presided over by Vice-Rector for University Development, Prof. Dorota Malec, speeches were given by Prof. Wojciech Nowak, Rector of the Jagiellonian University, and by Prof. Jerzy Pisuliński, Dean of the Faculty of Law and Administration. The laudation for Prof. Grodziski was delivered by Prof. Wacław Uruszczak. The subsequent part of the conference consisted of 15 papers, divided into three sessions, presented by scholars affiliated with various academic centres. The presentations concerned current or planned editing works regarding legal history sources. Moreover, various methods of applying these sources to academic research and educational activities at the university, as well as to judicial decisions, were discussed. To conclude the conference, Dr. Hab. Maciej Mikuła presented the basic assumptions of the novel project concerning the electronic meta-edition of legal history sources “IURA. Sources of Laws from the Past”.
