We can only guess the reasons afterwards. The presentation of "Ado Köögardal's diary 1946 and 1947" was largely a preview of the next possible publications.

The bound but torn out diaries from 1934-1938 were edited by Ado Köögardal. great-grandson Ulla Kadakas in his own hand to the archive of the museum. In Ado Köögarda, Keila Miikaeli was a parish teacher from 1921 to 1957. Throughout this period, he kept a diary, most of which the family had secretly kept throughout the Soviet era. You can read the diaries from 1924-1930 on the website of the Harjumaa Museum. "Köögardal 2019" was published as a book by Harjumaa Museum in autumn 1944, "Köögardal 2020" in autumn 1945 and "Ado Köögardal's diary 2022" in early 1949.
