AP Wrocław WRZZ 310) and “Akcje czytelnice, popularyzacja pisarzy wrocławskich, sprawozdania z działalności bibliotek związkowych, plebiscyt na najciekawszą książkę roku 1975-80. “Reading Promotions Campaigns: popularisations of Wrocław writers, reports on the activities of union libraries, pool for the most interesting book of the year 1975-80” (Ref. AP Wrocław WRZZ 307 – became inspiration for the chosen convention.
