Slides for the lecture given at Department of Library and Information Studies. // Slajdy k přednášce pro předmět Blok expertů na KISKu (kisk.cz/blok-expertu).
Making cultural content available for everyone via mass digitisation is still a challenge for the European ALM (Archives, libraries and museums) sector. Most European memory institutions intend to digitise their whole collection and develop projects for the attractive presentation of their online available electronic content.
The creative industry expects content that is ready for remix and reuse even for business purposes. Based on the experiences of the meetings of Member States Expert Group on Digitisation and Digital Preservation the lecture will summarize the main factors that challenge the realization of this aim and outline possible solutions.
I will present the business needs (what creative reuse means), the legal barriers (how existing copyright rules make creative reuse difficult), the memory institutions’ perspective and some landmark projects from all over Europe that makes it clear that there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Europeana constructed a Publishing Framework (video) together with its contributing cultural heritage institutions to be more explicit about the possible returns of opening up data and delivering better quality. This framework has been translated and implemented across Europe to help institutions understand the benefits of being able to open up their data. A couple of case studies from the museum, archive and library world will used to illustrate the results of adopting a more open approach, covering both the positive and the negative.

Eaa2021 476 ways and capacity in archaeological data management in serbiaariadnenetwork
Over the past year and due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the entire world has witnessed inequalities across borders and societies. They also include access to archaeological resources, both physical and digital. Both archaeological data creators and users spent a lot of time working from their homes, away from artefact collections and research data. However, this was the perfect moment to understand the importance of making data
freely and openly available, both nationally and internationally.
This is why the authors of this paper chose to make a selection of data bases from various institutions responsible for preservation and protection of cultural heritage, in
order to understand their policies regarding accessibility and usage of the data they keep. This will be done by simple visits to various web-sites or data bases. They intend to check on the volume and content, but also importance of the offered archaeological heritage. In addition, the authors will estimate whether the heritage has adequately been classified and described and also check whether data is available in foreign languages. It needs to be seen whether it is possible to access digital objects (documents and the accompanying metadata), whether access is opened for all users or it requires a certain
hierarchy access, what is the policy of usage, reusage and distribution etc. It remains to be seen whether there are public API or whether it is possible to collect data through API.
In case that there is a public API, one needs to check whether datasets are interoperable or messy, requiring data cleaning.
After having visited a certain number of web-sites, the authors expect to collect enough data to make a satisfactory conclusion about accessibility and usage of Serbian archaeological data web bases.

ver recent years non-governmental sector in Montenegro had been very active and has had an important role in creating an open and sound civil society. Among NGOs that are active in Montenegro very important is the presence of organizations which deal with cultural heritage from various aspects. So far, these NGOs have realized numerous projects, and they have been especially active in: presenting and popularizing heritage, researching and valorizing heritage, as well as in pointing out to problems and potentials of cultural heritage.
EXPEDITIO Centre for Sustainable Spatial Development is a non-governmental and non-profit organization seated in Kotor, Montenegro. It was founded in 1997 by six students of the final year at the Faculty of Architecture in Belgrade, with the aim of improving architectural and visual surroundings of our region. The organization has about 360 members and has conducted numerous projects in Montenegro and region addressing different problems of sustainable spatial development. The activities of EXPEDITIO are conducted through four sectors: cultural heritage, sustainable architecture, spatial planning and public advocacy.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Digital Preservation Policies
in Bulgaria and Turkey
2. OUTLINE
• Introduction
• Digitization in Bulgaria – achievements and problems
• LIS and cultural community dialogue for establishment of
Digital Preservation Policy in Bulgaria
• Review of the digitization activities in Bulgaria
• Overview of Digitization Efforts in Turkey
• Digitization Problems and Issues in Turkey
• Conclusions and Recommendations
3. INTRODUCTION
Digitization, conservation and socialization of cultural
heritage are usually performed within the established
national cultural policy and is implemented with
collective effort and coordination of interdisciplinary
expertise and organizational structures.
The goal of the paper is to evaluate the
achievements and problems in the implementation
of the digital preservation policies in Bulgaria and
Turkey.
4. The cultural institutions in the both countries preserved
very rare and valuable documents from the common
historical background, which meet the interest of
researchers, educators and wide public.
Based on descriptive and comparative approach, this
paper shows the commonalities and differences in the
situation of presentation of cultural heritage on digital
environment in Bulgaria and Turkey. Major common
problems observed are listed as lack of national
strategies, authorized aggregators, standards and
coordination on digitization processes.
6. Digitization in Bulgaria –
achievements and problems
The establishment of the Bulgarian national
and cultural identity as a part of the European
cultural space requires the realization of a
national cultural policy, in particular a national
strategy for digitization. The issue of digital
preservation, access, promotion, socialization
and wide use of Bulgarian cultural and
scientific heritage in virtual environment is of
national importance and is a commitment of
Bulgaria as a member of the European Union.

10. BULGARIANA http://bulgariana.eu/
In 2011 the first public-private initiative for digitization was
created , called Bulgariana, which transformed to the Bulgariana
Association on February 2014. Bulgariana is an initiative for
virtual preservation and presentation of the Bulgarian cultural
heritage, technical aggregator to Europeana, and a network of
Bulgarian organizations and private people, who deal with
activities related to the Bulgarian cultural heritage.
11. National level meetings
In the period 2009 – 2012 under the patronage of the
Bulgarian Member of the European Parliament Emil
Stoyanov four consecutive meetings, took place in
Plovdiv and one of them in the European Parliament in
Brussels, focused on the presentation of the Bulgarian
cultural and historical heritage in the digital environment and
the Bulgarian participation with digital content in Europeana.
As a result of these meetings three memorandums were
prepared and deposited on the attention of the Bulgarian
government for the necessity concrete steps to be taken for
the acceptance and implementation of the project of
National Strategy for Digitization and for the provision of
regular and stable financial support for digitization
processes in the cultural institutions.
12. National Council for Digitization of cultural
and historical heritage
In July 2012 a National Council for Digitization of cultural and
historical heritage was established at the National Charity Fund
“13th Centuries Bulgaria”. The main objective is the
development of a National Plan for digitization of the
cultural, historical and scientific heritage of Bulgaria.
14. Projects
The summarized picture of the Bulgarian cultural
institutions, which participate in European projects,
connected to the development of Europeana, is the
following:
National Library “St. St. Cyril and Methodius” (TELPlus, European
Digital Library, IMPACT); Public Library “Pencho Slaveikov”,
Varna (Europeana Local since 2008, Europeana Awareness,
LoCloud); Central Library of Bulgarian Academy of Science
(Michael, Athena and Athena Plus, Linked Heritage, DM2E);
National Archaeological Institute with Museum at Bulgarian
Academy of Science (CARARE since 2012), Initiative Bulgariana
– Ontotext (Europeana since 2011), National Academic Library
and Information System Foundation (Europeana Photography
since 2012) etc.
15. Bulgarian content in Europeana
At the moment the Bulgarian content in Europeana
achieved between 50 000-100 000 materials which is
less than 2 % from the total content of the portal.
•The typology and characteristics of materials.
The conclusion is that we are far from the
representation in the digital European space of
meaningful cultural context which is inherent for
Bulgaria in historical and ethno-confessional plan.
The task to be outlined the national priorities for
presentation of the cultural content from and for
Bulgaria in Europeana is really urgent.
16. Partnerships in the digitization process
• Partnership networks and technological infrastructures;
• Collaboration in the GLAM sector - galleries, libraries,
archives and museum.
17. National aggregator
• The Public Library “Pencho Slaveikov”, Varna, the
National Library “St. St. Cyril and Methodius” and
Bulgariana act as aggregators of Bulgarian cultural
heritage content to Europeana. But in Bulgaria is still
missing official recognized national aggregator and
national established institutional infrastructure for
aggregation of the Bulgarian cultural heritage to
Europeana.
• One possible resolution of this problem is offered by
Association Bulgariana.
18. Main problems
• Lack of official approved National programme for digitization
of the Bulgarian cultural-historical and literary heritage;
• Lack of outlined national priorities for presentation of the
cultural content from and for Bulgaria in Europeana;
• Lack of stable financial support of the digitization processes;
• Lack of a National aggregator and national established
institutional infrastructure for aggregation of the Bulgarian
cultural heritage to Europeana;
• Lack of union catalog and/or database for the existing digital
collections;
• Lack of working communication and partnership between
the Bulgarian institutions which are responsible for the
digitization from GLAM sector.
RECOMMENDATIONS
20. Digitization Attempts
•Attempts carried out by;
• Ministry of Culture and Tourism,
• the National Library,
• university and public libraries
• General Directorate of State Archives
•Description and Cataloging of print materials is the starting
point of digitization activities in Turkey.
•Transferring print materials into a digital environment is the
second step of attempts

of Information Resources;
• Discussion of digitization studies,
• Review of the status
Workshop on Turkey in World Memory;
• requirements for digitization approaches
•A workshop about digitization of rare books were carried out by
Metropolitan Municipality of Istanbul Atatürk Library
• Digitization working group was established
•Another working group, informatics in art and culture working group,
related to Horizon 2020 was founded within the scope of increasing
awareness about national digital libraries
27. Digitization Problems and Issues
• Conducting projects and institutional studies independently and
unaware of each other,
• Personnel skills and competencies,
• Budget and funding problems,
• Lack of national standards,
• Lack of terminological unity in defining sources in projects,
• Ambiguities in copyright for cultural memory institutions and lack
of a definition for information sources in the related regulations,
• Lack of an union catalogue of digitized materials,
• Lack of a collective platform for all cultural memory institutions,
• Lack of a supreme board having authority over digitization
practices
28. Recommendations
• Initiatives and efforts should be made in order to raise awareness of
institutions about digitization approaches, standards and digitization
project management;
• Digitization policies that contain detailed approaches about every single
point of digitization and digital collections should be established at
institutional and national levels;
• Accessibility of digitized materials should be considered more than
previous approaches.
• An authority institution which can play a leading role for digitization
processes should be determined.
29. Conclusions
• Both countries have a valuable cultural heritage assets with the effect of
sharing culture approximately five centuries through the history;
• Initiatives related to digitization and digital preservation issues in both of
the countries were carried out in the same period
• Very common problems and discussing matters
• We could conclude that in both countries have following issues about
digital preservation and digitization;
• Lack of national strategy of digitization of cultural heritage,
• Lack of standardized institutional infrastructure,
• Lack of an authority institution about standards and quality of digitization
project management and state financial support
• These issues are also main obstacles which not allow to implementation
of an effective long-term digitization policy.
30. Recommendations
• Providing active advocacy campaigns for engagement of stakeholders
• Requirement for successful strategic management in three main stages:
• Digital conversion
