We have undertaken the review of the sky area in vicinity of
GRB 120311A (M.R. Goad et al. GCN Circ.13035) on
astronegatives, collected in Ukrainian NAS Main astronomical
observatory plate archive (1976-1996). All the plates with
the possible object appearance are digitized using Microtek
ScanMaker 9800XL TMA and Epson Expression 10000XL flatbed
scanners and have been placed into Golosiiv Plate Archive
database DBGPA with open access to them.
