This immigrant was running a Catholic Book Shop in Paris in 1844–1871. The Catholic Book Shop was then called Polish Book Shop. Design/methodology/approach: The article was written based on the Karol Królikowski correspondence, which was found at foreign libraries and archives. Some more information was also retrieved from refugee’s press, book shops’ catalogues and academic paper. Findings: Our research discovered that the book selling offer of Królikowski’s book shop, which was initially small, grown into hundreds of book titles, press and journalistic work. The offer was constantly growing because of close contacts with booksellers from Poznań, Krakow, Paris, Berlin, Wrocław, Lipsk. Królikowki published religious literature and work of polish immigrant poets (Adam Mickiewicz, Zygmunt Krasiński and others) and political journalism. It is difficult to work out the exact number of books published at Polish Bookshop but it is very likely that it was more than 100 titles. This institution was a meeting place for Polish immigrants at French capital.}, doi = {10.4467/25444972SMPP.21.026.13852}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/smpp/article/karol-krolikowski-1806-1871-paryski-ksiegarz-i-wydawca-wielkiej-emigracji} }
