Abstract [eng] Data accumulated in referred articles show that the usage of literature by academic community was influenced by books collated by University Library and traditional values common for the establishment of higher education for all parts of Europe that were under the leadership of the Jesuit order. In spite of the fact that the main part of reading sought by academic society was composed of professional literature, professors of Vilnius University were distinguished by rather broad reading interests typical to well-educated persons of their time and assimilated humanistic ideals embedded in Vilnius University by the Jesuit order. Although there are many ways to solve present-day issues of categorizing the reading process, material, strategies etc., sufficient attention to historical approaches has not been given in Lithuania. Many investigations into this area do not reveal the situation well. Yet, even selected quality research into this process can provide us with new directions for research and decision-making, and can increase our knowledge of the development, tendencies and culture of reading in all of Lithuania during the 16-19 centuries.
