Danutė Petkevičiūtė-Labanauskienė researches Lithuanian culture and literature. In 1941, she and her family were deported to Siberia, although she returned to Lithuania in 1947. She graduated from Vilnius University in 1958, and started to work at the Central Library of the Academy of Sciences. Petkevičiūtė wrote a book about the Lithuanian activist Laurynas Ivinskis, the author of the first calendar in the Lithuanian language (it was published in 1988). Petkevičiūtė-Labanauskienė sorted and described the Ignas Jonynas collection in 1960. After that, it was partly accessible; but only scholars from the Academy could use documents in the collection. In 2000 Petkevičiūtė-Labanauskienė published an article about the Ignas Jonynas collection.
