Abstract The article is about employees in libraries, the stress is on the total number of employees, share of library professionals in libraries and costs of employees. The statistical data mentioned in the article can be compared and is related to the libraries in Slovenia, as well as to the libraries in Europe. Several comparisons, on the basis of which employees in Slovene libraries are placed into an international context, have been made. Most data and comparisons are related to the period 1991-1999. They are based on different periods, types of libraries and geographical location.
Libraries and licencing
Authors: Žumer Maja
Published: August 2023

AbstractIn the mid 90s, the abundance of various electronic publications exposed libraries to the problems of licensing electronic content. Various licensing principles have been prepared recently to help libraries in the process; it can be said that in general, the knowledge of licensing issues has improved in libraries of all types. Libraries form consortia in order to gain stronger negotiating positions and obtain better conditions. In the article, new licensing principles are presented in more detail, as well as some domestic and foreign experiences with consortia forming.

Cross-language information retrieval
Authors: Dimec Jure
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe article reviews the motivation behind the development of cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) – a relatively new area of information retrieval in multilingual textual databases, defines its objectives and position among the research disciplines dealing with various aspects of processing electronic texts. A short historical overview is followed by a description of the most important methodologies (document translation and query translation) and language resources used in connection with them. Regarding the resources, attention is focused on the two- and multilingual ontologies (thesauri, transfer lexicons and similarity thesauri), corpora, their construction and use with the CLIR experiments. The article primarily aims at illustrating the various methodological approaches, while the functioning of particular systems is less prominent. There are no references to the condition of CLIR in Slovenia or to the existence of language resources suitable for processing Slovenian texts in CLIR systems, since this topic calls for a separate review.
Stemming of Slovenian library science texts
Authors: Vilar Polona , Maver Jasna
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe theme of the article is the preparation of a stemming algorithm for Slovenian library science texts. The procedure consisted of three phases: learning, testing and evaluation. The preparation of the optimal stemmer for Slovenian texts from the field of library science is presented, its testing and comparison with two other stemmers for the Slovenian language: the Popovič stemmer and the Generic stemmer. A corpus of 790.000 words from the field of library science was used for learning. Lists of stems, word endings and stop-words were built. In the testing phase, the component parts of the algorithm were tested on an additional corpus of 167.000 words. In the evaluation phase, a comparison of the three stemmers processing the same word corpus was made. The results of each stemmer were compared with an intellectually prepared control result of the stemming of the corpus. It consisted of groups of semantically connected words with no errors. Understemming was especially monitored – the number of stems for semantically connected words, produced by an algorithm. The results were statistically processed with the Kruskal-Wallis test. The Optimal stemmer produced the best results. It matched best with the reference results and also gave the smallest number of stems for one semantic meaning. The Popovič stemmer followed closely. The Generic stemmer proved to be the least accurate. The procedures described in the thesis can represent a platform for the development of the tools for automatic indexing and retrieval for library science texts in Slovenian language.
Coppo’s Piran codex – structure and condition
Authors: Vodopivec Jedert
Published: August 2023

AbstractAlong with a number of precious museum pieces, the Maritime Museum »Sergej Mašera « in Piran keeps within its collection two manuscripts bound in a single text-block, i.e. De Summa totius Orbis and Portolano, together with printed woodcut maps. Coppo’s codex as a whole, is probably the most precious cartographic document kept in Slovenia and considered to be an artefact with world class cultural status. As parts of the Codex differ in content, they also vary in terms of their material profile. The manuscript and printed part differ due to the type of record, paper, form, manner of binding and degree of damage. For drawing, printing and colouring of the maps, the same materials were used as its contemporaries: paper, iron-gall inks and pigments. The textual part of the Codex is hardly readable and in many places badly damaged due to the corrosive activity of metal ions in iron-gall inks and copper pigments. Apart from its inestimable information value, any potential damage to the Codex demands constant strict protection and exhibition only on exceptional occasions.
Metadata or a catalogue of the virtual world: how to bring order into chaos?
Authors: Dimec Zlata
Published: August 2023

AbstractFor libraries, internet represents a new challenge, calling for ordering the huge number of its electronic resources. Besides selection, monitoring changes, archiving etc., processing is just one of the problems libraries have to deal with. Full cataloguing is a time-consuming and therefore expensive procedure. An idea came up to introduce a simplified processing to electronic resources creators so that they would take responsibility to increase the availability of their works themselves. The so called metadata contain the same elements as the libraries’ bibliographic records, but are reduced in number and stored in a format less structured than MARC-formats. The quality of nonprofessional processing may be rather low so collaboration with librarians is recommended, modelled upon the CIP-programme. Libraries themselves may decide to use metadata for cataloguing less important electronic resources. A union metadata database, run as an international project and supported by necessary tools, might compete with commercial browsers.
Information literacy
Authors: Novljan Silva
Published: August 2023

AbstractInformation literacy is a concept which is well established in theory while in practice it is only slowly breaking ground in accordance with the understanding of its significance and the possibilities of its realisation. Based on fundamental works, the characteristics of information literacy, its cognitive foundations and significance for individuals as well as for society, are argumented in the article. The analyzed content of this concept is connected with the content of a librarian’s knowledge and activities. From this derive the tasks of a library and the incentive for designing common general recommendations for an information literacy programme. This could also be used as a starting point for defining the scope and aim of three levels of information literacy in which all the various types of libraries would participate by helping users to master the information process, successfully orient themselves in the information world and find the relevant information they are searching for.

The development of the National and university library from 1918-1938
Authors: Kodrič-Dačić Ema
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe article describes the historical background of the present National and University Library of Slovenia from the year 1918 to 1938. This time period was a turning point in its development: the number of librarian staff rose substantially, as well as the number of acquisitions (due to the legal deposit copies sent from the whole state) and library users. At the same time, the library introduced some new catalogues. Formally, the library was an independent institution, serving mostly the needs of the newly established University of Ljubljana. While it was striving to be formally recognized as the university library, the University tried to establish its own university library. Therefore, the aims of the two institutions did not coincide and their actions were not coordinated. In 1938, however, the library was finally formally recognised as the University library.

Hommage to the central library and central library services
Authors: Kodrič-Dačić Eva
Published: August 2023

AbstractCentral libraries and their special activities were introduced in the first Slovenian Library Act in 1961. After 40 years, in 2001, they were terminated by the new Slovenian Library Act. Their activities should have promoted the development of librarianship and ensured a harmonised and professional functioning and development of the library system and particularly of public libraries. The services included monitoring the libraries, the collection of statistical data, consultations, professional education of library staff, support for the development of libraries and librarianship and preparation of drafts for library legislation. Municipal central (public) libraries, which should have promoted these activities and, at the same time, serve as model libraries, were, at the time of their introduction, advanced organisations. They accelerated the development of public libraries and of their networks, but they have never implemented demanding tasks, which were specified in the document issued in 1971, the Conception of the development of librarianship in Slovenia and in Librarianship Act 1982. The new library act omits the terms central library services and central library, but their special activities are preserved at the state as well as at the regional level.
Library macro-environment: New technological and economic rules
Authors: Štular Sotošek Karmen
Published: August 2023

AbstractFast and flexible adaptation to changes in the macro-environment is also crucial for libraries, which have to review them, respond to them and become a part of them. Consequently, the application of marketing science and tools helps libraries to find out how to survive in the competitive world and how to become better and stronger. The article, which draws from marketing, economic and information disciplines, introduces the main principles in the technological and economic environment of libraries and finds the knowledge about these disciplines to be most crucial for successful management of modern libraries, especially on the pretentious publishing market and on the market of information suppliers. Within the technological and economic environment, the cooperation is the only logical solution, which benefits the producers of information services and products as well as libraries. The following text finds that libraries will achieve long-term success and will be proactive in developing partnerships only by using relationship marketing. This relatively new approach offers libraries new ways for successful and long-term management of alliances between partners.
The library of Janez Vajkard Valvasor
Authors: Budin Branka
Published: August 2023

AbstractJanez Vajkard Valvasor (1641-1693), the famous Kreiner polyhistorian, possessed a very valuable library, which was stored in the Slovene castle of Bogenšperg. In 1690, Aleksandar Ignacije Mikulić (1650–1694), the Bishop of Zagreb, bought this priceless book collection, which also held some 7.300 graphics, and moved it to Croatia. This collection became part of the Metropolitana – the library of the Zagreb Archbishopy and is presently stored in the national archives of Croatia. Valvasor’s library heritage has been saved as a whole, the books have been professionally processed, a catalog «Bibliotheca Valvasoriana» has been published. Today, the book profession shows great interest in Valvasor as a person as well as in his work. With the new modern technology and new media access to his heritage is becoming easier for the public.
The state, use and preservation of newspapers in the serials reading room in NUK
Authors: Rapuš Katja
Published: August 2023

AbstractNewspapers are often placed in the category of the most imperilled materials, due to the use of a low-grade paper, their large size and relatively frequent use. Unfortunately the methods of preservation and use are extremely time consuming as well as expertly pretentious, therefore in many Slovenian collections, the preservation is utterly inappropriate. Accessibility of this kind of materials is in many cases hindered, in some even impossible. The inventory of the state of newspapers in the Serials department of NUK was performed to assess the current state of newspapers as affected by use and past preservation programs. The intent of the inventory was not only to meet the needs of our research, but also to serve as a selection tool for storage, use and retrospective reproduction. The main intent of the research was to provide a framework for the materials selection for projects of appropriate permanent storage and safe use of newspapers in NUK as well as in other Slovenian libraries.

Ljubljana University Library: from the collaps of fascist Italy to the end of the second World War (1943-1945)
Authors: Kodrič-Dačić Eva
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe Library of the University in Ljubljana moved into the new library building in 1941 at the very beginning of the Second World War. By 1943, when fascist Italy collapsed, the building was almost completely furnished. In January 1944, a German plane crashed into the building and the fire which broke out, destroyed the main reading room, numerous books and public catalogues. The authorities acted immediately and organized the reconstruction of the heavily damaged building, initiated an action for the replacement of library collections and employed workers for the creation of new catalogues. The library also had considerable support from the authorities regarding its national functions i.e. collecting legal deposit, acquiring patriotica, publishing the national bibliography, which led toward the affirmation of the Slovenian National Library.
Evaluation of models of university libraries in Austria, Germany and Slovenia
Authors: Sapač Irena
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe article discusses the evaluation of models of university libraries in Austria, Germany and Slovenia. Evaluation in this case means the estimated value of a specific service, and in this article it is the library service. The author tries to evaluate the models of university libraries with qualitative and quantitative methods. In the research, she is interested in the position of the university library in the states’ library system, the legal and financial frame, historical development, organizational structure, staff, total library holdings, the increased library holdings, users, implementations of information technology, and the vision of the implementation of organisational and tehnological novelities. She tries to ascertain how a specific library satisfies the users’ needs and also tries to define the advantages and disadvantages in the library’s functioning. The author states that an optimal model, which would be ideal in all European states, doesn’t exist, there exists just an optimal model within a particular state or region.
The local studies and special library collections in the Dr. Franc Sušnik Central Carinthian Library
Authors: Šular Pandev Simona , Vončnina Simona
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTThe Dr. Franc Sušnik Central Carinthian Library’s local studies activities are presented in this article.Already as the former Ravne na Koroškem Study Library, the Dr. Franc Sušnik Central Carinthian Library has incessantly maintained its local studies collection function with planned and systematic supplementation of the book material, serial publications, special collections and exhibition activity.Today the library is the central regional library in Koroška and, as specified by the law, performs various tasks for the wider region, receives obligatory copies, purchases library material for Slovenes abroad and completes the local bibliography for Koroška abroad.Many special collections, which the library can be proud of, are the result of a many year’s hard work. Formation of special collections accordingly to the kind and typology of material demands of a professional librarian also to be fully acquainted with certain elements of archival storage and museum activity.There have been great changes taking place in the field of local collection activity, as a consequence of the use of new technologies, while at the same time this work is hindered by financial troubles and deficiency of the tools needed for the input of the local collection materials into shared cataloguing.The library tends towards a unified and cooperative processing of the local studies collection materials, a good referral work and uniformed mediation of material and information. The aim is certainly to provide users with a fast, easily accessible and cheap local studies collection information.

The introduction of library automation in the National and University Library and Slovene public libraries
Authors: Bahor Stanislav
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTIn a series of articles on library automation, this is the first one describing and analyzing the introduction of library automation in the National and University Library in Ljubljana and in other Slovene public libraries from the outset to 1977. It discusses the process of creating the professional basis, which enabled the subsequent application of new technologies in public library services in Slovenia, and describes the terms and conditions in which the first attempts of implementation of computer systems were carried out. It especially underlines the importance of a very high level of professional awareness of the Slovene librarians. They promoted consistent consideration of the international professional standards and trends in library automation field in spite of the unfavourable economic situation in the country of that time, when the restrictions in the allocation of funds also limited the possibilities for the development of the Slovene librarianship. Therefore, it was very significant to make the best use of all disposable resources - also very moderate potentials of new information technology - even though only a very limited number of the Slovene librarians had the access.
Outside the Gutenberg Universe
Authors: Kodrič-Dačić Eva
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTTechnological development has changed the media and formats for recording information, as well as the methods for their collection, preservation, reproduction and use. After six and a half centuries since the invention of printing press, electronic publications on Internet represent a revolutionary break-through in communication and data transmission. The new format has changed the publication to the extent that the library science should re-define the topic of its research, and re-consider the methods and procedures for its treatment. Consequently, the library science should refer to the underlying terminological and typological research, and re-define the subject of bibliographic processing and determine the elements for the subject’s identification. The new technological platform of electronic publications opens a range of possibilities, which make the significance and value of the established methods of knowledge management very relative, and thus also the basis of the library science and its “raisson d’etre”.No cultural value is attached to electronic publications due to their specific characteristics, as it has been attached to a book in our civilization. Therefore, collection and long-term preservation of this material is not problematic only from the technological but also from the sociological aspect.By dealing with electronic media, library theory and practice finally step from the area of the known laws of the Gutenberg universe into the new space, where the new working rules will have to be established.

Usability of GIS methodology at library service planning: some examples
Authors: Vidiček Matija , Novljan Silva
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTIn information era, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are more and more accessible for general application and consequently gaining in importance. GIS information system enables storing and analyzing data, but it differs from other information systems as the data are linked to location. This enables presentation of data in map form. Therefore, the application of GIS is possible also in the field of library services, either for analysis of current services or for planning current or future services. By applying GIS, demographical data can be added to geographical data, which can result in better analysis or planning. In the paper the possibility of GIS application in the field of librarianship is presented, especially acquisition and use of publicly accessible geographical and demographical data. The majority of the needed data already exists, one only needs to find and use them properly. When using the already existing data we contribute to cost effectiveness and to the improvement of efficiency.
Digital preservation in Slovenia: an overview
Authors: Kavčič-Čolić Alenka
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTDigital preservation has been gaining its significance mostly because of the exponential growth of digital resources, which should be understood in the framework of the information technology and society development. As a consequence, many of national and international policy and strategy initiatives which foster the development of preservation of digital heritage are taking rise. An overview of digital preservation in Slovenia from the library science perspective is presented, and the comparison with archival approach is discussed. According to the Slovenian Deposit Law, the National and University Library (NUK) is the only library responsible for digital preservation of electronic publications. Due to the lack of staff and financial resources NUK has started with this practice some years later than other developed libraries all over the world. In the SWOT analysis some advantages and opportunities are described. It was concluded that optimal results can only be achieved by cooperation of relevant institutions.
Written Cultural Heritage in the Context of Adopted Legal Regulations
Authors: Kodrič-Dačić Eva

The main goal of the study is a theoretical research of library materials acknowledged as Slovenian heritage. By defining the basic terms it highlights the attributes which are immanent to library materials, derived from the context of their origin or later destiny. Slovenian library legislation concerning protection of written cultural heritage is also critically analysed.Methodology/approach: Comparative analyses of European and Slovenian legislation concerning librarianship and written cultural heritage. Research limitation: Research was mainly limited to professional literature and resources dealing with written cultural heritage. Originality/practical implications: Results of the research serve as formal criteria for definition of library materials as written heritage and suggest how to improve legislation in the field of protection of written heritage in libraries.

Methods and Benefits of Georeferencing Library Collections
Authors: Šolar Renata
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACTPurpose: Wide use of web mapping and online geolocation services have changed search models and users’ requirements for presentation, navigation and access to library collections, wherein the spatial retrieval with coordinates in the background is certainly one of the options.Methodology/approach: The contribution is based on the analysis and comparison of elements for formal georeferencing in MARC formats and metastandards for spatial data ISO 19115 and FGDC CSDMG as well as gazetteers for geographical names such as ADL Gazetteer Protocol, ADL Gazetteer Content Standard, Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names and GeoNames for informal georeferencing.Results: Today‘s technology allowing connection of online library catalogs with online registers for geographical names and geographical forms, the general subject headings, Wikipedia and other sources of information can dramatically change not only the geographical information search and access to cartographic materilas in libraries, but also to library resources in general.Research limitation: Insufficient number of examples of how libraries take advantage of geographic names and geographic codes in bibliographic records.Originality/practical implications: Results of the study are useful for the development of library services based on georeferencing of bibliographic records.
From Scans to Digital Repository: Digitization Process Rationalization for Culture Public Sector in the Field of Culture
Authors: Kragelj Matjaž
Published: August 2023

Abstract Public institutions hold important physical collections of materials from the fields of culture and science. For more than a decade, they have been facing the problem of digitization and archiving requirements as a part of the digitization process when generating e-content. They are using more or less the same procedures when they cope with those difficulties. At the same time, we note a much larger set of institutions, which still deal, more or less successfully, with the initial problems of the digitization process. The main reasons for the gap between the two can be found among different factors, including: lack of knowledge in the field of the science in informatics, limited financial and staff resources provided by public institutions, and in particular, limited resources for the preservation management and the archive maintenance sub processes. The National and University Library is developing a business model that will provide a successful implementation of the digitization process with all main sub processes (submission and/or digitization, archiving, dissemination). Thus, the end product for digital preservation and provision of public access to e-content for similar institutions will be ensured.The main component parts of the digitization process are as follows: selection and preparation of physical collections, determination of access/use restrictions or copyright, application of Creative Commons license, preparation of project parameters and bibliographic information, digitization, integration of bibliographic data into e-contents, automatic text recognition, archiving and providing access to digitized collections. Some activities, such as access and long-term preservation, need to be ongoing throughout all the phases of the digitization workflow, whereas some of them can be traced only in individual phases of the process. In special cases, it might be necessary to change some bibliographic data, i.e. license terms and conditions or access modality. The digital copy status can change over time (expiration of licence, the digitized materials fall in the Public Domain) or by modification of agreement with the copyright holder.By implementing a business model, we wish to contribute to the rationalization of the use of public funds for this purpose, but at the same time, to encourage a greater scope of online available e-content and to ensure a safe digital preservation of e-content material. It should be pointed out that the problems, related to long-term preservation of physical collections and their digital representation are not terminated by the digitization process, they are only expanded from the physical to digital environment.
Educational Needs of Public Library Users
Authors: Šinko Simona
Published: August 2023

AbstractPurpose: The article explains the role of user education in public libraries based on the assessment of users’ educational needs in a selected public library. We present a part of the results of the needs assessment study conducted on users of the Ljubljana City Library (LCL). In this presentation, we focus on the thematic areas of users’ interest, the most appropriate time of day and the most appropriate period of the year for participating in education. The aim of presenting this information is to support the development of an appropriate adult education provision and an effective use of human, financial and material resources in public libraries.Methodology/approach: The basic research method used was descriptive and causal non- experimental. The study involved 943 adults LCL users who have filled in an online or a printed form of the questionnaire.Results: Results of data analysis showed that users express a greater degree of interest in the following course topics: travel, foreign languages, literature, public speaking and health. They express the lowest degree of interest in the topics: policy, motoring and mathematics. Afternoons and evenings suit them best, whereas the autumn and winter season are in their view the best time of the year for participating in education. The analysis also showed some statistically significant differences in relation to sex, age, status and educational level of the users.Research limitation: By the practical application of results the characteristics of the sample of users and the environment from which they come, as well as the shortcomings of the questionnaire as an instrument for data collection, have to be considered.Originality/practical implications: The data obtained are useful in preparing the basis of educational activities in LCL, as well as for the design of educational programs in other comparable public libraries and other providers of adult education. The survey results can also serve as a guideline for the acquisition of library materials. The findings about the most appropriate time of day and season of the year for participating in education may also be useful for the organisation of other library events.

Članek predstavlja izbrane primere slednjih z analizo prostorskih elementov, ki najbolj vplivajo na odločitve pri načrtovanju tako novogradenj kot tudi prenov knjižničnih stavb. Predstavljeni podatki so posledica raziskave, narejene v sklopu študijskega dela, podan pa je tudi pregled literature, slovenske in tuje, ki se ukvarja s predstavljeno problematiko.
KAKOVOST IN VREDNOST KNJIŽNICE V OČEHUPORABNIKOV: ŠTUDIJ UPORABNIKOV NARODNE IN UNIVERZITETNE KNJIŽNICE
Authors: Ambrožič Melita
Published: August 2023

V članku so predstavljeni rezultati študij uporabnikov, ki jih Narodna in univerzitetna knjižnica periodično izvaja že od leta 1987. Z njimi pridobiva podatke o splošni podobi knjižnice v javnosti, pomenu knjižnice za študij in raziskovalno delo ter uporabi njenih storitev in informacijskih virov. Še zlasti pa jo zanima ocena kakovosti storitev in osebja knjižnice, kot jo zaznavajo njeni uporabniki. Spremljanje kakovosti storitev z vidika uporabnikov je namreč sestavni del procesa ugotavljanja uspešnosti delovanja knjižnice in v izvajanju njenih strateških in letnih načrtov dela eno od temeljnih orodij kontrole. Zadnja študija uporabnikov je bila opravljena konec leta 2013. Raziskovalni podatki so bili pridobljeni s pomočjo spletne ankete. Vključevala je vprašanja, ki so omogočila primerjavo z rezultati preteklih študij, prvič pa tudi vprašanja o ekonomski vrednosti storitev knjižnice. Avtorica ugotavlja, da v primerjavi z rezultati prejšnjih raziskav tudi zadnji kažejo, da anketiranci knjižnico najpogosteje obiščejo zaradi uporabe njenih prostorov za študij oziroma zaradi izposoje knjižničnega gradiva. Redko iščejo strokovno pomoč knjižničnega osebja in slabo izrabljajo bogato ponudbo elektronskih informacijskih virov ter orodij za njihovo odkrivanje. Delež tistih, ki knjižnico vrednotijo kot javnosti dobro prepoznavno, odprto in prijazno ter zaupanja vredno ustanovo, se je v primerjavi z rezultati preteklih raziskav povečal, prav tako delež tistih, ki visoko vrednotijo vpliv knjižnice na kakovost in učinkovitost njihovega dela in študija. Tudi stopnja zadovoljstva s knjižnico in njeno dejavnostjo je pri skoraj vseh elementih ocenjevanja višja, kot je bila ob starejših študijah, še zlasti se je povečala v primeru knjižničnega osebja. Zaradi nezanesljivosti zbranih podatkov ekonomska vrednost knjižnice ni bila ugotovljena.
ŽUPANČIČEVA ZAPUŠČINA IN NJEGOVA OSEBNA KNJIŽNICA
Authors: Trobec Zadnik Dragica , Trajkovski Nataša
Published: August 2023

Zapuščina književnika Otona Župančiča, ki jo je Mestnemu muzeju Ljubljana leta 1985 z darilno pogodbo izročila umetnikova družina, sodi med redke tako obsežne in raznovrstne umetniške zapuščine. Njen ključni del je oprema dveh prostorov Župančičevega zadnjega domovanja, katerih sestavni del je tudi njegova osebna knjižnica. Prispevek prinaša pregled opravljenega muzejskega dela, od prevzema zapuščine do njene prve javne predstavitve v okviru razstave Župančičeva spominska zbirka leta 1985 v muzeju. V nadaljevanju je opisana metodologija muzejske inventarizacije knjig in strokovnih podlag za drugo muzejsko postavitev zapuščine v prostorih Knjižnice Otona Župančiča leta 2008. Gre za eno redkih muzejskih razstav, ki omogoča, da se ljubitelji besedne umetnosti v knjižnici vsak dan srečajo s pesnikovo zapuščino. Podrobneje je opisana muzejska inventarizacija Župančičeve osebne knjižnice, ki je odkrila, da njegove knjige niso zgolj knjižno gradivo, ampak so tudi muzejski predmeti, ki odstirajo umetnikovo delo in zanimanja, poleg tega pa so ogledalo tedanjega časa. Številne knjige so popisane in poslikane, postale so umetnikove beležnice in s tem njegovi osebni predmeti. V zaključku je podan kratek pregled opravljenega dela in načrti za nadaljnjo obravnavo in predstavitev umetnikove zapuščine.
KNJIŽNICA ŽIGE ZOISA KOT ŽARIŠČE SLOVENSKEGA KULTURNEGA NACIONALIZMA
Authors: Vidmar Luka
Published: August 2023

Namen: Razprava ugotavlja, kako je knjižnica barona Žige Zoisa konec 18. in na začetku 19. stoletja vplivala na razvoj slovenskega kulturnega nacionalizma. Najprej razkriva, zakaj sta bili v procesu izoblikovanja slovenske nacionalne identitete v tistem času razmeroma manj pomembni največji javni knjižnici na Slovenskem – Semeniška in Licejska knjižnica v Ljubljani.  Razprava v nadaljevanju oriše nastanek in rast Zoisove knjižnice, še posebej njenega slovenskega, slovanskega in slavističnega dela. Nazadnje pokaže, kako je baronova biblioteka spodbujala nacionalne prerode Slovencev in drugih slovanskih narodov. Sklep opozarja, da bi morala biti Zoisova knjižna zbirka v Narodni in univerzitetni knjižnici v Ljubljani zaradi pomembnosti nujno urejena, predstavljena in zavarovana kot corpus separatum.Metodologija/pristop: Historična metoda, oprta na kritično preučevanje virov.Rezultati: Nova ocena pomembnosti Zoisove knjižnice za razvoj narodnih prerodov Slovencev in drugih Slovanov v habsburški monarhiji.Omejitve raziskave: Rokopisi in knjige v Narodni in univerzitetni knjižnici, ki so bili Zoisova last. Izvirnost/uporabnost raziskave: Izvirni prispevek k rekonstrukciji, ovrednotenju in predstavitvi Zoisove knjižnice v Narodni in univerzitetni knjižnici.

A cadeia leiteira é um dos setores mais importantes do agronegócio brasileiro, contudo, este setor pode impactar negativamente o ambiente caso não seja empregado um correto manejo dos dejetos gerados. O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar propriedades leiteiras localizadas na região noroeste do Paraná e verificar o manejo dos dejetos dos animais. Foram coletadas as informações em 26 granjas de leite localizadas na região noroeste do Paraná, por meio de um questionário que versou sobre a caracterização geral das propriedades e do manejo sanitário, nutricional e dos dejetos. Os dados foram analisados de forma descritiva. Os resultados revelaram que 70% das propriedades são de pequenos produtores que trabalham nesta cadeia produtiva, em média, a 30 anos. Menos da metade dos produtores estudados (42%) fazem o pré e pós-dipping e os testes de análise de mastite clínica e sub-clínica diariamente e/ou semanalmente. Também foram relatados casos frequentes de mastite nos rebanhos (57%). Todas as propriedades vacinam e aplicam vermífugos em seu rebanho periodicamente. Com relação ao manejo nutricional, 61% afirmaram que oferecem resíduos agroindustriais como alimentos alternativos na alimentação das vacas. E, sobre a gestão e tratamento dos dejetos gerados na propriedade, 76% reportaram que armazenam os dejetos em esterqueiras e não se preocupam com o tempo de permanência ou forma de tratamento, não empregando nem biodigestão nem compostagem e, aplicam os resíduos gerados diretamente nas pastagens, como adubo. Com base nos resultados obtidos, verifica-se a necessidade de orientação para os produtores quanto a adoção correta das boas práticas na ordenha e orientação sobre as formas corretas de tratamento e destinação dos dejetos gerados. Estas ações podem contribuir com a cadeia de produção leiteira, tornando-a mais sustentável sob os pontos de vista econômico e ambiental.

O presente trabalho objetivou analisar a prática discursiva-argumentativa sobre a política educacional para refugiados/migrantes, baseando-se em um documento institucional, intitulado “Relatório de Atividades da “Comissão de estudos para viabilizar o ingresso de refugiados e imigrantes”. Especificamente, buscou-se refletir sobre o caráter argumentativo, visando identificar quais eram as estratégias discursivas mobilizadas pelo(s) enunciador(es) para instaurar a credibilidade e defesa da temática. Diante da análise, foi possível observar a utilização de oito (8) sequências argumentativas: Valores compartilhados; Ponto de vista; Sensibilização; Estratégia de visibilidade; Reforçando a condição de vulnerabilidade; Empoderamento; Ethos de humanidade; e Representações coletivas compartilhadas. Conclui-se que, no discurso sobre a política pública educacional para refugidos/imigrantes, foram usados mecanismos de convencimento ou argumentos para sensibilizar sobre sua importância e necessidade de agendamento.
