Flora Litvanica Inchoata (1781--1782) by J. E. Gilibert: Preliminary Census of Copies in European Libraries (2013)
Jean-Emmanuel Gilibert (1741--1814) was a French botanist, physician, and politician who lived in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth between 1775 and 1783, where he organized studies on medicine and natural sciences. During this time, he collected local plants, and in 1781--1782, published a two-volume compendium: Flora Litvanica inchoata. One hundred copies of the first volume and an unknown number of the second volume were issued. In 1925, Polish botanist Slawinski noted five libraries holding copies of Flora Litvanica. The current census shows at least 18 European libraries holding original copies of the book.
