3) Title of dataset
Czech Literary Samizdat Bibliography

4) Dataset file description
The dataset contains metadata for articles extracted from unofficial journals, periodicals and non-periodical collections of Czechoslovak provenance from 1948-1989, with occasional overlaps into the early 1990s and 1990s for journals that did not cease publication due to the social changes associated with the Velvet Revolution. Records of articles were created in 2016-2020, and in 2021 the processing of records of samizdat collections and anthologies began. 

Timeframe: 1951–2003

Excerption range: The selection of titles is primarily based on the collective publication Czech Literary Samizdat 1949-1989: editions, journals, anthologies (Michal Přibáň et al. Prague: Academia, 2018). Not only literary periodicals are excerpted, but also periodicals of a general cultural nature, periodicals of a news nature or periodicals devoted to other types of art. Periodicals disseminated within a narrow circle of a certain community or titles on the borderline between samizdat and the grey zone are also represented.
 
Source languages: Czech, Slovak, Polish, English, French, German, Russian

Database history and changes in cataloguing practice: The records are processed in MARC21 format in the Aleph system from the beginning.

The dataset includes a data file in MRC format (binary MARC21), a list of excerpted journals in XLSX format, a list of excerpted almanacs in XLSX format, a description of the dataset and a specification of the local cataloguing practice of the CLB in TXT format.
