Self-consistent calculations of the electron energy structure in metallic lithium are performed taking into account atomic vibrations in the crystal lattice. A satisfactory agreement between the results of calculations and experimental data is achieved. The most significant changes in the electron spectrum of lithium revealed with rising temperature are as follows: (1) shift and broadening of core states of the 1s-asymmetry and (2) transition of outer electrons of the 2s-symmetry to the states of the 2p-symmetry leading to strengthening of the directional bonds. 10 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.
