This document discusses library and information science (LIS) education in Flanders. It describes the past situation which involved separate programs for librarians and information specialists. Recent developments in both the library sector and educational system are then outlined. In the library sector, the focus has shifted from institutions to networks, collections to users, and tradition to innovation. Meanwhile, the educational system has aligned with the Bologna Process and introduced professional bachelor and master's degrees. However, the advanced LIS master's program is currently not officially recognized or government funded. Overall, the future of LIS education in Flanders remains uncertain.
Library and Information Service of the 21st Centurytomroper
The document discusses factors driving changes in library services in the 21st century including the transition to electronic media, user needs and demands, and changes in parent organizations. It describes how libraries are changing from collecting materials "just in case" to providing information "just in time" and leading the way to new electronic networked environments. It also outlines new services libraries provide like full text articles online, digitization, and more tailored remote services as well as challenges around intellectual property and information availability.
The Law on Reading Promotion and Support: About the School Library, by Mauriz...Luisa Marquardt
Archt. Maurizio Caminito, President of the "Forum del Libro" [i.e., Book Forum] Association since 2007, presents some reflections concerning the possible role of the school library with reference to the Law "Provisions for the promotion and support of reading“ (13 February 2020, n. 15).
Meghini - Europeana Data Model @EUscreen MykonosEUscreen
The document discusses the Europeana Data Model (EDM), which provides a framework for representing digital cultural heritage resources and their metadata. EDM aims to enable rich search functionality through standardized representations and connections between different metadata schemas. It pursues interoperability by mapping metadata values and linking to external knowledge sources. EDM has evolved over multiple versions to increasingly integrate metadata from different cultural heritage institutions and domains. Key aspects of EDM include representing objects and their related resources, contextualizing objects, and modeling versioning and derivation relationships between resources.

The document discusses using generative AI to simplify workflows in museums. It describes using chatbots and language models to generate keywords, convert file formats, create websites, and translate between natural language and structured queries. The document also discusses generating synthetic text descriptions from metadata and using chatbots to have unstructured conversations about museum collections.
This document summarizes a workshop on accessing EU funding opportunities. It introduces the RL:EU project which aims to help libraries learn about and access EU initiatives and programs. The workshop covers the Erasmus+ and Creative Europe programs. Erasmus+ supports education, training and youth projects through cooperation-based projects like KA210 and KA220. Creative Europe funds culture and audiovisual projects through its Culture, Media, and Cross-sectoral strands. Examples of funded library projects are provided.
