[Vukol Mikhailovich Undolsky (January 30, 1815, Undol, Vladimir province, Russian Empire — November 1, 1864, Moscow, Russian Empire) — Russian literary critic and bibliographer, researcher of handwritten and old-printed books, also known as the first publisher of "Zadonshchina" (1852).

He graduated from the Vladimir theological Seminary and the Moscow theological Academy (1840) in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra.

Besides the monuments of ancient Russian literature Undolsky has published a number of monuments of Russian bibliographical literature, including "contents of books, who put them" (1846), "table of contents Lives of the saints Metropolitan Macarius" (1847), "the Russian Library" of Damascus (1881). 

The beginning of an independent bibliographic research Undolsky was the compilation of an inventory of the collection of early printed books by A. I. Kosterina (1848).

Undolsky's main bibliographic work Is "Essay on Slavonic-Russian bibliography", which he compiled on the basis of his own collection, which included 1,704 manuscripts and 808 old printed books, including four editions of Ivan Fyodorov: the Moscow and Lviv Apostles, the New Testament and Psalter of 1580, the Ostrog Bible (undolsky's collection was received by the Rumyantsev Museum and is now in the Russian state library).

Undolsky's book was prepared for publication and published in 1871 by A. E. Viktorov and A. F. Bychkov, curators of manuscripts and old printed books of the Moscow Public and Rumyantsev museums and the Imperial Public library. The joint work of these three scientists includes descriptions of 4,705 publications published from 1491 to 1864.

Undolsky himself described his library of Slavic and foreign manuscripts (1422) and books of the Cyrillic press (CA. 900) in the "Slavonic-Russian manuscripts of V. M. Undolsky". This description was also published after his death in 1870, edited and supplemented by A. E. Viktorov.]
