Add some additional information about the text in English, as well as the Ieresky Molitvoslav
There is also a Supplemental Book of Needs in Slavonic, which contains within services such as the orders for the consecration of a temple and the consecration of things pertaining to the temple, such as the [[liturgical objects|church utensils]], [[vestments]], [[icons]], and so forth. This Supplemental Book of Needs is often combined into one book with the Small Book of Needs.
What distinguishes the services found in the Euchologion is that they are generally services that are not appointed to be done at any given time according to the Church calendar, but are done as the need arises (e.g., funerals, weddings, baptisms, the consecration of a new church, etc.). Some services are associated with the liturgical calendar, however, such as the blessing of candles on the Feast of the [[Presentation]], the blessing of Palms on [[Palm Sunday]], etc.
The ''Ieresky Molitvoslov'' contains some services that are considered Trebnik services, however, this is more of a devotional book for priests than a service book for public services.
In English, there are various editions of the Small Euchologion, but only one (4 volume) edition of the entire Euchologion, [http://www.stspress.com/Searchresult.aspx?CategoryID=4 published by St. Tikhon's Seminary Press] under the title ''The Great Book of Needs''. This collection of the Trebnik services attempts to organize these services in a more logical sequence than the Slavonic Trebnik has been historically published in.
Volume One contains the services associated with the 7 sacraments.
[[Br. Isaac Lambertsen]] has also done a translation of the entire Slavonic Trebnik, as well as services that are unique to the Greek Euchologion, but due to the publication of the Book of Needs by St. Tikhon, the publication of his translation has been put on hold indefinitely.
