The director of the National Library of Spain discussed the past, present, and future of libraries and books. Libraries are transitioning from physical paper collections to digital formats accessible online. National libraries are digitizing collections and making them available through partnerships and platforms. The future of the book is moving from physical containers to online multimedia content. National libraries must adapt to changing user needs and technologies while maintaining core functions like legal deposit and preserving cultural heritage.
The document discusses strategies for communicating about specialized exhibitions at the Museum of the National Library of Spain using social media. It notes the museum has a Twitter account since 2011 but visitor numbers were lower than expected for its 2012 exhibition. The museum tweets about various topics to attract "alien" audiences and shares its strategies, including activities to complement exhibitions, analog strategies, and being polite, generous, and friendly on social media. Charts show the museum's follower growth and networks. A roundtable event with architects was a success in promoting engagement.
La colaboración entre la BNE y Telefónica ha sido objeto de interés en la reunión de Europeana. Durante dicha reunión se organizaron diferentes talleres y la BNE participó en el de “Colaboraciones entre el sector público y el privado” (Public-Private Partnerships). Este interés por el convenio de la BNE con Telefónica quedó de manifiesto en el reciente informe The new Renaissance de un “Comité de Sabios” de la Comisión Europea. En la reunión la intervención de José Luis Bueren se centró en explicar cómo se articula el Convenio de Colaboración, qué se ha logrado hasta ahora, qué se prevé alcanzar en 2012 y las conclusiones de esta colaboración.

The National Library of Spain museum holds temporary exhibitions to engage the community beyond its permanent collection focusing on the history of books and communication. Two exhibitions in 2012-2013 focused on architecture, which traditionally does not attract wide interest. To promote these, the museum identified influential architecture blogs and accounts on social media and developed connections by sharing content. This helped attract new followers from the architecture community and promoted activities around the second exhibition, like a panel discussion that reached over 1 million Twitter accounts. Social media was crucial to build interest in specialized exhibitions from their target communities.

The document discusses the challenges of archiving the French web at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF) according to legal deposit requirements. It notes that the web contains equivalents of materials traditionally collected, like newspapers, books and photos. However, the web is much larger in scale than traditional collections and is constantly changing. The BnF has developed a "mixed model" approach to archiving the web through broad crawls of certain domains and more targeted crawls of particular events or themes. Cooperation with other national libraries and institutions is also important for the large-scale task of preserving the web.

The Spanish National Library (BNE) signed a 5-year agreement with Telefonica to digitize 200,000 works totaling 25 million digital images. This funding helped drive large-scale digitization efforts but also required institutional changes at the BNE to adapt workflows and quality standards to the new digital reality. While the partnership was beneficial, concerns remain about long-term sustainability once the Telefonica agreement ends in 2012.

Europeana is a digital platform providing access to over 53 million digitized cultural heritage items from across Europe. It aims to make these resources available for educational purposes through partnerships with organizations in the formal and informal education sectors. These distribution partners help integrate Europeana's content into their own systems and environments to strengthen the relationship between education and culture. Europeana also facilitates greater promotion and reuse of cultural heritage through policy work and by highlighting open initiatives that utilize its collection. A variety of resources are available on Europeana, including items that can be freely reused, collections in different languages, and tools to search for openly licensed content.
Address to the conference ‘Museums in the Digital Sphere: Opportunities and Challenges’ held on 6 October 2017 at the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, Germany.
The event provided an opportunity to analyse the needs and wishes of museum visitors in the 21st century and to open up topics such as digital collections, transparency, and open access to public discussion. It addressed technical restrictions (databases, structures, resources) and legal limitations (copyright, image rights) as well as the opportunities created by interlinking multiple collections in comprehensive platforms such as the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek (German Digital Library – DDB), ‘bavarikon’, Europeana and introduce initiatives such as #openGLAM.
Douglas presented Europeana, a unique digital resource where thousands of cultural institutions – from regional archives to national museums – share their collections online. Douglas emphasised the benefits of working with Europeana's community of 1700+ digital heritage and tech experts to expand and improve access to our shared cultural heritage. He outlined the opportunities for cultural institutions to showcase their collections with Europeana and to engage citizens within and beyond Europe.

The document describes the Biblioteca del Fondo public library in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Spain, including its location, collections, services, areas, activities, and a special collection on world cuisines aimed at bringing together the diverse cultural communities in the neighborhood through food. The library serves around 35,000 people and sees an average of 800 visits and 200 loans per day.
The document provides instructions on changes between AACR2 and RDA standards for cataloging. Some key changes include:
1. RDA uses less cataloging jargon and focuses on user needs rather than catalog card displays.
2. Elements like headings, uniform titles, and physical descriptions have been renamed or expanded to better reflect the resources being described.
3. Controlled vocabularies are more open and machine-readable in RDA to allow for more flexibility and automation.
4. Punctuation, abbreviations, and transcription rules are standardized differently between the two standards. Options that were choices in AACR2 are now part of the main instructions in RDA.

Este documento describe cómo pensar en los datos puede mejorar las soluciones tecnológicas. Explica cómo al principio el objetivo era mostrar obras sobre un mismo tema, pero al enfocarse en los datos (enlazando obras y temas) en lugar de la aplicación, se logró una solución más rápida y reutilizable que benefició todo el servicio. Ahora, siguiendo esta filosofía de "pensar en los datos", se pueden explotar nuevas funcionalidades como sugerencias basadas en temas similares entre obras.

1. Paul Otlet envisioned a "World City" in the early 20th century that would serve as a central repository of all the world's information, anticipating concepts like hyperlinks and search engines.
2. Otlet's Mundaneum project in Belgium aimed to interconnect all knowledge in an organized, universal system accessible to all. It brought together functions of a library, museum, and archive.
3. The modern Helsinki City Library has embraced digital technologies and services, aiming to be a "boundless library" that serves users locally and globally through physical and virtual access to information.
Public libraries around the world are undergoing significant transitions as they rethink their buildings and spaces. The document summarizes research and workshops with library managers from 17 countries to identify criteria for building new public libraries. Key findings include that new libraries should be flexible community hubs and learning centers that incorporate technology, prioritize user needs, and act as civic landmarks. Recommendations are that libraries must adapt to trends like being lifelong learning centers, collaboration spaces, and cultural institutions, while continuing to provide collections and a welcoming environment for all.
The document discusses Info-doc, a company that manages libraries and provides information services in Huesca, Spain. It details the company's services, clients, and current projects which include managing municipal libraries in Huesca and providing digital literacy training. It then focuses on the two municipal libraries in Huesca, including their founding dates, collections sizes, user numbers, and locations. It outlines the programs offered at the libraries, including information literacy training, reading promotion activities, cultural programs, and digital literacy courses and workshops. It concludes by listing funding sources for library programs and providing contact information.
The document discusses e-corpus, a digital library developed by CCL to provide access to written and iconographic heritage collections. It notes that digitalization allows immense cultural treasures to be transformed into a living, coherent corpus accessible to all via the internet. E-corpus catalogs and disseminates documents from over 250 institutions in 26 countries. It includes over 2 million documents accessible through simple searches. The platform also allows institutions to create specialized digital libraries on shared subjects.
Public libraries in The Netherlands: a powerful networkFers
In this presentation I will briefly present the structure of the public library network in the Netherlands, with particular emphasis on the way public library innovation is “organised”. There is currently a community of practice (CoP) organised for every specific area of library innovation which at the same time also addresses officially established national priorities, i.e. lifelong learning, development of traditional library services, education of the young population, etc. Librarians in each of the CoPs share experiences specific to their field based on which they identify future activities aimed at the development of the particular field. Librarians included in this CoP system come from libraries of all types and sizes regardless of the province or region.
Keywords: innovation, collaboration, Communities of Practice, network

This document discusses how natural history museums are evolving from monologues to dialogues by embracing social media and digital platforms. It provides examples of how the Natural History Museum of Barcelona is using internal and external blogs, Facebook, and other social networks to foster two-way conversations about science with staff and the public. By sharing content, stories, and expertise on these platforms, the museum aims to communicate more openly, learn from others, and establish itself as a public forum for discussion about the natural world. It also reflects on challenges like maintaining an active online presence and determining how virtual interactions could reshape the role of physical museums.
The director of the Lawrence Public Library discusses how libraries have evolved from physical containers of information to digital hubs that provide resources and services to enrich communities. He provides a brief history of libraries and how the Lawrence library will be upgrading its 40-year-old building with more space for children and meetings, state-of-the-art technology, and new services like content creation stations and makerspaces to support community creativity based on citizen input. The director believes libraries should adapt to best serve local needs and find better ways than books alone to provide information, inspiration and recreation if newer methods fulfill the mission of enriching lives.
Scholarly knowledge about the past through archives, repositories and collect...NTNU University
Museums and libraries were established as repositories of memory, initially as rarity-cabinets and archives by rich collectors in the 16th century. These resulted in the museum and library archives as public institutions of the 18th century with a mission to educate their visitors (Dilevko 2004). During the 19th century the past was defined as the product of “intellectual enactment and study” (Benett, 2004, p.2). Today, the use of Virtual Reality (VR) applications in Archaeology and Museology and the ever-increasing development of interactive software and new technological platforms have provided museum and library archives and historical collections with a new space of contact to their users. In other words, Museums, libraries and institutions of memory have been challenged to find new forms of dialogue with their users and have turned to VR technology to entertain and inform their audience.

The document discusses challenges and opportunities for Danish libraries in promoting reading and internet-based activities. It outlines trends toward more individualization, digital media, and information inequality. The summary highlights libraries' efforts to create hybrid physical and digital spaces that provide access to information, support learning, and foster community through innovative programs and services.
This document provides an overview of libraries and their evolving role. It discusses how libraries are transforming from traditional spaces focused on physical collections to becoming more community-centered places that facilitate knowledge creation, learning, and social interaction. The document highlights several trends driving this change, such as new technologies that expand access to information but also risk exacerbating inequality, the rise of online education, evolving conceptions of privacy, and empowerment of new voices. It also shares examples of innovative library programs and services that exemplify this transition, from mobile libraries and 3D printing to collaborative workspaces. The overall message is that libraries continue to play an important role in society but must adapt to remain relevant by becoming more open, people-oriented institutions that see

Cultural ring, future internet culture and peopleArtur Serra
This document discusses using an "Internet for Culture and People" to connect cultural centers and share cultural events. It describes the Cultural Ring project, which connected local theaters using an IP network and equipped them as audiovisual studios. The project helped share opera performances, increasing audiences. Ongoing challenges include organizing vast cultural repositories and engaging more people. Open living labs are proposed as a way to involve citizens in user-driven cultural innovation. Europeana is discussed as a potential European cultural laboratory.
The document discusses the Google Library Project, an agreement between Google and Oxford University to digitize over 1 million public domain works from Oxford's libraries in order to make the texts more widely accessible online. It provides context on the historical concept of a "universal library" and notes that the Google project represents an unprecedented scale of mass digitization that could transform research and learning. However, some issues remain around copyright and jurisdiction given the international scope.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

Thanks to the LoC to invite the BNE at THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL SUMMIT OF THE BOOK Is a real pleasure to be here with all of you My presentation is talking about Imagine libraries...: beyond THE future that is already here
Libraries have always coexisted with changes. They have adapted to social and cultural evolution and they have become more relevant for citizens. Since the end of the 20th century there has been a change of perspective, an important variation in the approach towards both the content and services available to users.
Libraries are institutions in which history weights heavily. Over the centuries they have evolved almost beyond recognition: from serving monastic orders, the nobility and the Crown, to serving the people, upon the explosion of the social role of libraries in the 19th century and the special consideration of the type of users they served. It can be said that libraries have gone from accommodating only monks, aristocrats and kings to end up being considered as a fundamental service to citizens, with a direct impact on their education.
This service to citizens is diversified according to the typology of these libraries, they are divided into public, specialized or national, depending on the user type and its aims or objectives. Public libraries are a first-class educational instrument which also encompass cultural entertainment among their functions . Specialized libraries focus on information that fosters research, whether it be scientific or humanistic. Finally, national libraries prioritize the preservation of cultural heritage, understood as the guarantee of its permanent dissemination.
All that is changing:
From 2000, this entire situation begins to vary due to a change of perspective: from works on paper ...
to the birth of digital or digitized ones, i.e. Works visible on a screen. This produces a change in the established order that many authors have considered similar to that which occurred with the invention of the printing press.
There are new players in the arena like Google Books or Wikipedia, but this has been only the beginning of a big change. L ibraries are immersed in a crisis of identity and the risk is that they can lose sight of their main objectives, which are primarily to organize information, to disseminate it and to preserve it for posterity. In these times of uncertainty national libraries are also at a crossroads, struggling with false contradictions between diffusion and preservation, forgetting the fact that preservation makes permanent dissemination possible and that conservation without diffusion has not any sense .
The National Library of Spain which has celebrated its three hundred anniversary this year, faces the future with very clear ideas and a firm commitment to the dissemination of its collections and tasks, starting with its main objective, which is: to document its collections by means of the Catalog.
The library catalog encompasses most of the materials that the Library stores: from manuscripts and books from the 14th to the 19th century to photos, musical scores and videos, maps, drawings, engravings, serials and sound recordings. The catalogue’s national or international dissemination seeks to increasingly expand presence all over the world. It has been available in The European Library (TEL) since 2007 and in the Online Computer Libraries Center (OCLC) since 2009. National authority records have been in the Virtual International Authorities File since 2009. We have begun the SKOSification of our physical copies of authority records which were incorporated into HIVE in 2011. Alongside this our manuscripts are in the Spanish university libraries network (REBIUN), and we collaborate with autonomous regions and universities sharing data from our catalog.
Among its main functions it is important to mention the management of the legal deposit whose corresponding law was updated in 2011 and whose main challenge has been the deposit of digital online publications. Right now the project for the creation of a national repository in cooperation with the State Body Red.es and the different regions is already underway. That repository will not only host the digital legal deposit but also the Internet Archive and the collection digitized by the library. It will represent the embryo of future additional services The BNE has been collecting the “.es” domain since 2009 and three massive collections have already been created. We have also completed two selective web harvestings, one on the last General Election (November 20th 2011) and the other one collecting Spanish resources in the fields of the humanities that collected around 4.000 URLS. In total the BNE currently has 85 Terabytes with 1,7 billion URLS.
In addition, our digital library already has around 100,000 titles Due to the sponsorship of Telefónica , Spanish telecom Company, which is a Public-private partnership that has now become an international reference point thanks to the remarkable impact it has had on the Library. Thanks to this sponsorship 30.000 pages per day are scanned at the headquarters of the BNE, including sound recordings , that are made available to our users via streaming. One of the most important features of this sponsorship is that these digital images are now the property of the Library without further restriction of use than those dictated by the intellectual property law.
Our digital library, the Biblioteca Digital Hispánica or BDH is already present in other international digital libraries such as Europeana or the World Digital Library. At present our digitized works are being incorporated into CONTENTdm, the OCLC digital library. In September of 2012 the Biblioteca Digital del Patrimonio Iberoamericano (BDPI) was created, under the auspices of the Association of Latino-American national libraries, ABINIA. This project provides a common access point to the digital resources of the Ibero and American national libraries.
Digital Library of the Latin-American Heritage The biblioteca Digital del patrimonio iberoamericano (BDPI) the digital Libary of the Spanish and Portuguese latino-american heritage
The BDPI has been a success story because in a very short space of time it has succeeded in providing access to around 160,000 titles, covering all types of materials, including sound recordings, of six Latin American national libraries:
Close to one hundred and sixty thousand titles of The National Library of Brazil The National Library of Chile The National Library of Colombia The National Library of Panamá The National Library of Portugal The National Library of Spain
The Portal, designed and developed by the BNE, allows the user to perform searches in the main fields of the bibliographic records from the library catalogues and also in the text of the documents. It is also possible to filter the results obtained through the selection of multiple facets. It also offers different collections or selections of documents which deserve a prominent place for their relevance, interest or importance, qualitatively or quantitatively, in the record set of the BDPI. They represent a new approach, cross-cutting and inclusive, towards the digital resources of Ibero-American heritage.
Fully aware of the great works that it is home to, the BNE has promoted a host of new useful social tools to disseminate its collections in different areas. Firstly, the Library opened its Facebook page in November 2008. It soon became a meeting point for the BNE's numerous remote users, who have a generalist profile . The main objective is to disseminate our lesser-known collections in an eye-catching way. In May 2011 we reached 100,000 followers and we are currently approaching 130,000. We are also actives in Twitter . In August of 2011 Twitter account of the BNE was created and the Director of the Library as well. We present a more professional content trying to promote the BNE’s cultural activities. At present there are nearly 13.000 followers and a new account has been created for the Museum. The success of this page led to the launch of the YouTube channel in April 2009. Today it contains around 150 videos played more than 440,000 times. A month later, in May 2009, the BNE website started up a blog which approaches the collections, projects and history of the institution in a fun, entertaining way. In March 2011 a channel on Flickr Washington created to disseminate graphic collections, among others, photography, which contains true works of art and explores all media and techniques. So far this year this channel has received around 250,000 visitors. During this year, the BNE has improved its information on the Wikipedia website, thanks to a cooperative writing project between librarians, active or retired, of the institution. In addition to this, the possibility of using the authorities of the BNE as a source of standardizing personal names Is being considered. This page is especially important as The European Library portal links up with it, as a basic source.
We take advantage of the new technologies to enrich and disseminate our masterpieces. These are initiatives that aim to bring the bibliographical jewels of the library to the general public include interactive books. They were inaugurated with the publication of the Quijote interactive in October 2010. Interactive books have been supported by the sponsorship of Telefónica and they endow the works with a temporal and intellectual context that relies on both the digitized holdings of the library and the profound knowledge of the professionals at the institution. The user experience is enriched with multimedia content that allows a full and innovative approach. So far, over 2.300.000 visits to this site have been recorded. The second interactive book was selected by the Facebook followers of the BNE among a group of four works. It was released in October 2012 after a long process of evolution. The Madrid Codex I and II of Leonardo da Vinci contain annotations and drawings corresponding to the different periods and contents. As is the case with most of Leonardo’s texts, themes are alternated and mixed in an arbitrary manner, following the line of thought of a genius who reacted with curiosity towards all aspects of nature. This peculiarity has led us to include a subject index which group together the pages containing information about a specific topic, such as music, painting and civil engineering, and allows direct, precise contact with the subject matter that is of interest to the user. The website also allows access to the digitized work, transcription and translation.
The working process has taken advantage of the restoration, digitization and re-binding of the works in which a team of professionals of the BNE has participated. Other contextual content of interest include a chronology of the life of Leonardo and a brief treatment of the areas of art and knowledge that were addressed by the universal thinker. All this has been supported through works that are part of the National Library of Spain holdings. There is also a description of Leonard’s codices that have survived to this day, the theme that addresses each one of them and the place where they can be found nowadays. Another section attempts to bring us closer to the historical, social, cultural and political context in which the extensive work of Da Vinci was created.
The current economic situation and sustainable development compel us to adopt austerity strategies, notwithstanding the fact that the global community requires an increasingly strong commitment from libraries to render more and better services. Therefore, library performance must be maximized to achieve the goals of quality and excellence with limited investments. Undoubtedly the key lies in cooperation, public-private sponsorships and outstanding resource management, in addition to a generous use of creativity and imagination. But currently the Spanish law needs to be adapted in order to make sponsorship attractive to the private sector. We hope to have it in the next year. In summary, our strategy is to do more with less !
It’s no longer a fantasy to think about libraries without walls, without reading rooms, despite the beauty of these rooms; it is no longer a dream to think of libraries without opening hours, without boundaries or limitations, that provide us with training, entertainment and research resources online. In this way, libraries would recover their role in a society that ,now more than ever, needs to change information into knowledge.
The printed book, as we have known it until nowadays, is a physical container and conveyor of information. The role of the libraries has been to preserve this containers and make them accessible to the people to disseminate this information and the related knowledge. But the times have started to change with the introduction and universal availability of the new information technologies. More and more people uses mobile devices giving them permanent access to rich multimedia content. And the ‘change rate’ accelerates in an exponential way.
For instance last week I downloaded in my iPad this App of Ferran Adrià. This substitutes with advantage the classical printed cookbook that has been used for centuries. There is not way back!!! Everybody knows that next January there will not be anymore a printed version of the Newsweek magazine. Newsweek is going digital in January 2013.
Our vision is that the classical printed book will be in the future used mostly as an art object container or something alike. This has been the idea behind the last large exhibition of our Tercenterary at the BNE: “The book as a … “ where we are showing very special books with very special subjects like:
The book as a precious art object
The book as a hunter of moments
The book as a visual poetry
The book as a delicacy
The book a desire
The book as a wound
The book as music
Or, the book as a journey This is contents that people will never be able to experience through an electronic device.
In conclusion: We are moving from the massive edition of printed books in paper which are, as I said, a physical container of information to Two new formats: Most of the information will come from online multimedia updatable contents. And, the physically printed format will be a privilege reserved to very specific contents that is durable along the centuries
So, - What must we change in order to accomplish our mission? - Is still our mission to preserve and disseminate contents like this cookbook launched as an iPad application? How do we do it? For instance, must we buy every available APP? If yes, how do we grant access to the users ... And so on?
We have a very, very interesting but challenging time ahead of us!
