Lithium in cool magnetic CP stars in still poorly studied and estimations of the Li abundance in these stars are scarce. There is some evidence of variability of the LiI 6708 Â line, but this variability has not been studied systematicaly. Even the identification of the 6708 Â line with the LiI resonance doublet is still in doubt. This problem is important in the broader context of the Li abundance in various types of stars, as well as for deeper undersfanding of the magnetic star phonomenon itself. The reason for fhis is that the Li abundance in very sensitive to evolutionary status of the stars and their properties, such as the character and intensity of mixing processes.
