Here is a small amount of information that might be of help:

As you said, the Muzeum Sztuki in ?ód? does have works by
Mi?ska-Goli?ska in their collection.  They have a wealth of contact
information posted on their website, you might want to try contacting
them to see if they can help:
http://www.muzeumsztuki.lodz.pl/strona%20ang/informacjaang.htm

A few works by Mi?ska-Goli?ska were included in an exhibition at The
Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences in Canada, held in 1999.  You
can view the included works here:
http://www.biblioteka.info/grafika/min.htm

If you can read Polish, the above mentioned page includes a short bit
of biographical information.  Without being able to read any Polish,
one can clearly see that Mi?ska-Goli?ska was born in 1904 and died in
1980.

The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences in Canada also had a catalog
of that exhibition available for sale for $50.00 plus postage. 
(http://www.biblioteka.info/grafika/albume.htm)  It would probably be
a good idea to contact them and see if the book is still available for
purchase.  On the main site, I only found the following email address
when I looked for contact information: stefan.wladysiuk@mail.mcgill.ca

I hope this helps, her art certainly looks interesting.
