Detail Literatūrpētnieks un grāmatzinātnieks Ojārs Zanders (1931) publicējis vairāk nekā 1000 rakstu par kultūras mantojumu, kultūru mijiedarbību un Rīgas grāmatniecību. Izdotas septiņas grāmatas, kurās autors sniedz ieskatu Latvijas kultūrvēsturē. Šis izdevums ietver vairāk nekā 30 gadu laikā sacerētus rakstus par latviešu grāmatniecību dažādos aspektos, sākot ar Apgaismības laikmetu (18. gs.) un beidzot ar rakstiem par Misiņa bibliotēku un tās izcilajiem darbiniekiem Jāni Misiņu un Kārli Egli. Kā norāda Ojārs Zanders, grāmata nav nekāds sistemātisks latviešu grāmatniecības kurss, bet tikai autora skatījums uz atsevišķām norisēm triju gadsimtu gaitā. /// ///
