The publication of ordos and directories in the Diocese of Lublin was a standard procedure from the beginning of the diocese, that is, from the first decade of the 19th century. The external shape and publishing order were modelled on similar prints published in the Chełm Diocese, of which the Lublin Diocese became the successor. During the period of partition, both ordos and directories were published almost annually. A search revealed that this was done in the interwar era without any omissions. Relatively easy to access today, publications from 1919–1939 are collected in a complete set in several Lublin libraries and archives, but are also disseminated in online form thanks to an initiative to digitize them. Ordos and directories of the Diocese of Lublin were published only in Lublin. They were written in Latin and Polish. The ordos included primarily the liturgical calendar, but also a range of other information relating to worship, as well as some of the more commonly used prayers. The directories included information about the institutions and clergy of the Lublin Diocese that was useful in the work of the bishop’s curia and parish offices. Regardless of the reliable resource base of the Lublin Archdiocesan Archives, which enables in-depth studies of Lublin’s church organization and its religious life, ordos and directories remain important source publications and interesting objects of research.
