This Annotated catalog of the "Literary Monuments" series includes, in addition to introductory articles, a description of all books in the series published in 1948-2011. The books in the Catalog are arranged chronologically, according to the years of their publication. The basis of the publication is the Catalog of the series, published in 1998, to which some amendments have been made. The described publications of 1998-2011 were added to it according to the same principles. This arrangement of descriptions gives a complete picture of the development of the series, i.e. its "external" history. Within each year, publications are given in alphabetical order. Unlike other bibliographic indexes, the Catalog provides not only a complete bibliographic description of books indicating authors and titles, but also mentions all the preparers of the monument, including compilers, translators, executive editors of the publication, authors of articles , comments, indexes, publishing editors, artists, reviewers.
