Among recent publications there were catalogues of temporary exhibitions, including international projects, organized within and outside the Museum. Between 1991 and 1999 twelve catalogues were published. Among them “The Venerable Sergius of Radonezh in Works of Russian Art of the 15th – 19th Century” (M., 1992), “Sokrovishcha muzeyev Podmoskovjya” [“Treasures of the Moscow Region Museum”] (M., 1996), “Icons and Manuscripts from the Heart of Russia” (Holland – Utrekht, 1999), “ Sovremenny khudozhestvenny metall i kamen” [“Contemporary Artistic Metal and Stone”] (Sergiev Posad, 1996), etc.

The mutual exhibition projects with serious scientific catalogues were developing. The most significant were “The Treasures of the Moscow Region Museums” (1996, Moscow – State Tretyakov Gallery), “Glamour of the Russian Court” (1999, Italy – Turin) in co-operation with the Museum-Reserves “Tsarskoye Selo” and “Pavlovsk”, “Icons and Manuscripts from the Heart of Russia” (1999, Holland – Utrekht) in co-operation with the State History Museum and the Museum named after Andrei Rublev; “The Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra and Russian Tsars: Relics and Art Treasures” (2002, Moscow – the State History and Culture Museum-Reserve “Moscow Kremlin”), “St. Sergius of Radonezh – a Great Devotee of the Russian Land” (2004, Military History Museum-Reserve “Kulikovo Pole" (Kulikovo Field”).

The results of the investigation of Sergiev Posad and its environs are the books written by K.A. Filimonov (with participation of the Museum research workers V.A. Tkachenko and S.V. Gorozhanina): “Sergiev Posad” (1998, 2002) and “Khotkovo” (2002, 2004), republished several times, and a series of booklets, including: L.M. Spirina “Pokrovsky monastyr v Khotkove” [“The Intercession Monastery in Khotkovo” ] (Sergiev Posad, 1996), N.V. Khrunova “Spaso-Vifansky monastyr” [“The Saviour and Bethany Monastery”]. (Sergiev Posad, 1997), T.Yu. Tokareva “Prikhodskiye tserkvi Sergieva Posada” [“The Community Churches of Sergiev Posad” ](Sergiev Posad, 1997), K.A. Filimonov “New Gethsemane” (M., 2000). In 2007 was published the album “Vozvrazshcheniye k vere. Khramy Sergievo-Posadskogo raiona” [Return to Faith. The Cathedrals of the Sergiev Posad District” (M., 2007), written by K.A. Filimonov and other Museum workers.

Guide-books and booklets, illustrating the Museum or separate expositions and displays, present a considerable part of the Museum publications, which are just a part of the scientific research. The results of the investigations are constantly reflected in the system of the expositions and displays. Since the first years the scientific research has been the basis for the development of the Sergiev Posad Museum. Its quality permits any forms of the Museum activity.
