One of the most fruitful means of creating the museum is the disclosure of the history of the book as part of the process of culture, which actualizes the cultural heritage, modulates the interpretation of the past. The book must be perceived as a message of certain cultural expression or its product, in the end, as a consistent consequence of the perception of that time. The disclosure of cultural heritage through a book, an integral part of that heritage, demonstrates its historical development and cultural motivation, enhances its acceptance, turning it into our historical property even if it is in other language. The problem of region awareness in Lithuanian cultural self-consciousness also arises. The history of Lithuanian politics, culture and religion discloses exceptional domination of a single center – Vilnius in all political, religious and cultural spheres. The exposition of KRPL book museum covers western Lithuania, which, according to its cultural. Political and even religious level is supposed to be an outskirt, and this is the factor enabling us to see and to investigate cultural peculiarities of a remote area. Expositions of provincial museums do not seek to lessen the importance of the central museum, on the other hand, not a single central museum is capable of carrying out the mission for actualization of cultural heritage and, due to the geographical factor, is not able and is not allowed to eliminate the vitality of local museums.[...].
