Summary/Abstract: Section I: PRESERVATION AND RESTORATION OF DOCUMENTS IN PUBLIC LIBRARIES IN ROMANIA. MODELS OF GOOD PRACTICE National bibliographies, especially those on old printing are conti­nually developing, both as concerns book titles and unknown aspects of some edi­tions belonging to the already listed titles. More recently identified volumes or those that recently entered the collections of some public institutions reflect suchcircumstances. This study tackles the case of a copy of the Horologion printed by Meletie Macedoneanul, in Govora, in 1640. The work is extremely rare: besides the recently purchased volume by the National Museum of Unification Alba Iulia, it is only known that depicted by specialized bibliographies and held within collecti­ ons of the "Lucian Blaga" Central University Library of Cluj-Napoca. By comple­tions with analyses specific to restoration propositions and subjecting of the copy held in Alba Iulia to the scientific lexicon, numerous contributions are brought to the knowledge of the Horologion edition from 1640 as well as the Romanian prin­ting in the first half of the XVIlth century.
