Abstract Pioneering print collector and curator, Samuel P. Avery (1822–1904), donated a collection of 17,775 prints, including works by Cassatt, Whistler, Turner and Manet, to establish the Print Collection of the New York Public Library in 1900. Prior to his donation, Avery curated print exhibitions at the Library, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Grolier Club, and Union League Club. Through an examination of Avery’s persistent efforts to exhibit exemplary prints in museum and gallery settings – including an unusual collection of prints by women – this article provides evidence that Avery’s ground-breaking curatorial efforts led to the institutionalization of print display in New York.

The decree of the President of the Russian Federation declared 2019 as the Year of Theatre. Libraries traditionally participate in promotion of theatre art, provide their places for plays, hold art meetings, organize theatre clubs, and use theatrical tools in club activities to hold public events. The article objective is to identify and characterize types, forms, orientation, and specifics of cultural, educational, and leisure activities implemented by the central universal scientific libraries of the Siberian Federal district (SFD) as part of the Year of Theater. 10 central libraries were chosen to be analyzed: Altai Regional Universal Scientific Library named after V. Y. Shishkov (Barnaul), Irkutsk Regional State Universal Scientific Library named after I. I. Molchanov- Sibirsky, State Scientific Library of the Kuzbas named after V. D. Fedorov (Kemerovo), Krasnoyarsk Regional State Universal Scientific Library, Novosibirsk State Regional Scientific Library, Omsk State Regional Scientific Library named after A. S. Pushkin, National Library named after M. V. Chevalkov (Gorno- Altaisk), National Library of the Tuva Republic named after A. S. Pushkin (Kizil), National Library named after N. G. Domozhakov (Abakan), Tomsk Regional Universal Scientific Library named after A. S. Pushkin. The source bases of this study were public plans and reports of libraries, news and events reports posted on the official libraries websites. The theatre topic reflects itself in preparing various libraries exhibitions, chronographs publications, organizing meetings with culture and arts figures, clubs work, organizing competitions, cultural and educational events and projects, holding festivals. Sociocultural event “Library Night 2019” aimed at supporting reading was a bright manifestation of the “Library + Theater” union. Libraries used the following forms of events: performances, concerts, lectures, master classes, exhibitions, excursions, quizzes, competitions, playgrounds. The events held during the Year of Theatre varied in content and combination of traditional and new forms; had strongly marked book and reading popularization; were oriented on different age groups, interactive; used many multimedia products. Although the chosen forms of the events are alike, the fact that each library has its unique content based on local history makes special cultural and leisure activities of every library.

SCIENTIFIC ISSUES OF TERNOPIL VOLODYMYR HNATIUK NATIONAL PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITY. SERIES: GEOGRAPHY 51, no. 2 (December 5, 2021): 91–100. http://dx.doi.org/10.25128/2519-4577.21.2.11.
Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the human-geographical study of the basic network of cultural institutions of the Ternopil city territorial community. The parameters of the territory and settlement network of the community are considered, which are the determining conditions during the structuring of geospace. The legislative principles of creating a basic network of cultural institutions of the local level are analyzed. The modern basic network of cultural institutions of the Ternopil territorial community is a consequence of the reform of the cultural sphere and the implementation of the decentralization reform. It went through three stages of its organizational formation.
The basic network of culture of the local level of the Ternopil territorial community includes 39 institutions. More than 56% of the network's facilities are located in the city of Ternopil. According to the form of ownership and organizational and legal form, they are divided into 9 communal institutions, 1 communal enterprise and 29 establishments that are directly in communal ownership.
The component structure of the sphere of culture and art of the community is formed by the following types of institutions: club-type cultural institutions, libraries, art schools, orchestras and cinemas. Primary socio-cultural services of the basic network are provided by 13 club-type cultural institutions. They are represented by the palace of culture, houses of culture and clubs (branches). Library institutions are the most numerous in the system of the basic network, the share of which reaches 51%. Among all 20 institutions of the community, the main role in this area is given to the Ternopil city centralized library system. Primary art education is represented by 2 music schools and 1 art school. The only municipal enterprise in the field of cinematography is the Ternopil Film Commission. A special feature of the basic network of cultural institutions of the Ternopil community is the presence of two orchestras. A significant addition to the basic network of community cultural institutions are communal institutions engaged in similar or related activities. Governing bodies ensure the systematic functioning of institutions and the implementation of measures to implement a consistent cultural policy.
The territorial organization of cultural institutions of the local level of the Ternopil city community is an orderly network, where the connections between them are manifested in the formation of various combinations. Within the community, the functioning of 6 cultural and artistic systems was identified, which are combined into three types of different hierarchical levels (1 urban, 5 basic and 5 primary). The geospatial specifics of the location of the elements of the basic network result in the indicators of providing the city and basic administrative-territorial units of the community with cultural and art institutions. They are sufficient to ensure the sustainable functioning of the network and the provision of socio-cultural services.
In the context of the spread of innovation diffusion, the rural area of the community is cascaded into three suburban zones: near (up to 6 km), medium (7-17 km), remote (over 18 km). The first zone meets the criteria of the village of Kurivtsi, the second – Malashivtsi, Glyadky, Chernykhiv, Ivankivtsi, Pleskivtsi, Kobzarivka, the third – Horodyshche, Nosivts, Vertelka.
Problems of the organization of rendering of cultural services are revealed: outdated material and technical base; outflow of highly qualified creative specialists; insufficient funding from the budget; conservative forms and methods of providing cultural services; the initial level of development of cultural and creative industries. An important feature of the network of institutions of the Ternopil community is the real prospects for its expansion and improvement of functioning through the opening of new modern institutions. An important area of constant activation of socio-cultural activities is the constant increase of various forms of cultural mobility and touring activities.
Key words: institution, network, community, culture, art, city, geocultural space, decentralization.

Full textAbstract:
The artist Moisey Fradkin (1904–1974) was a bright talented person in a brilliant galaxy of Ukrainian artists of the late 1920s – mid 1930s. He was a direct participant in the process of forming a special national “face” of graphic art. His works, which were exhibited at numerous foreign exhibitions in Europe and the United States, were noted as “strong and magical.” However, the further Fradkin’s creative destiny was not triumphant – after a very bright surge of original talent, his art was muted in the Procrustean bed of the Stalinist ideology, from about the end of the 1930s to the 1960s. He did not lose his skills, but only at the end of his life, full of wise experience, Fradkin again acquired bright energy and youthful enthusiasm in his work. Fradkin was a widely educated person, he taught at the Kharkiv Art Institute, was an active illustrator, author of easel compositions and graphic miniatures-exlibrises, worked in the field of industrial graphics for many years, headed the section of decorative and applied arts of the Kharkiv Club of Exlibrisists, collected a huge library. He and his wife, H. Krieger put together a unique collection of paintings, graphics and decorative and applied arts (more than 4000 items), which was later inherited by the Kharkiv Art Museum. The museum’s archives contain scattered sheets with fragments of Fradkin’s memoirs about his years of study at the Kharkiv Art College-Institute, which emotionally describe the time of the rapid reform of art education, which was full of contradictions. The article is based on these, not completely deciphered notes, and on the personal memoirs of the author of the article, who was familiar with the artist in the last four years of his life.

Full textAbstract:
The article presents the problems of philosophical scientific and scientific-educational work in the border region of Russia, which is the greater Orenburg Region, which is adjacent to Kazakhstan in the south, and borders with Bashkiria in the north. Following the scientific and educational tasks that contribute to the strengthening of ideological attitudes in the region, the philosophical club Arete (Greek. virtue, dignity), based in the Orenburg library named after N. K. Krupskaya, attracts students, teachers, researchers and all those interested in science to participate in discussions on philosophy. In the midst of the pandemic, the library uploaded videos of Arete meetings to make them available to a wider audience. The discussions do reflect the club’s name — participants focus on virtue, perfection, problems of freedom and responsibility. The meetings have a therapeutic, pedagogical effect, they help refrain from passions and make a dignified and deserving member of society. This sociocultural project rekindles understanding philosophy as an art of living. Philosophy teaches to resort to reason in decision-making and leads to a true virtue, bridging the gap between everyday life and a higher plane of thought. The young when introduced to philosophy get an invaluable help in finding answers to the most profound questions of what it is to be a human and how to find where you belong. In this respect, the topics of the club’s meeting indicate the scope of problems that need consideration and discussion with a younger audience: core values of a civil society; philosophical basis of legal culture; the problem of individual’s self-determination; the phenomenon of fear in the philosophical discourse; the study of axiological problem of social memory; philosophy of family; abandonment and solitude at home; problems of modern aesthetics and environmental challenges etc. From our point of view, initiatives that raise the profile of Russian regions are in the best interest of cities and towns suffering depopulation. Such projects are vital since they give the sense of empowerment and belonging, let them feel involved in the real economy, politics and culture, and thus encourage the young generation to develop their home area. We hope that Arete will set a good example of a project that brings philosophy back to people.

Full textAbstract:
To present-day astronomers the name of Robert Ellery, by which our newly established lectureship is to be known, means little. A century ago it was a different story. Ellery was then one of the most respected scientists in the country, a leading astronomer who had been director of the Melbourne Observatory since it was founded in 1853, and who had taken it to a prominent position in international astronomy. Besides this he was a man of parts who spread his talents widely. He was a founder and long-term president of the Royal Society of Victoria, treasurer of the University Council, chairman of the committee of the Alfred Hospital, Trustee of the Public Library, the Art Gallery and the Museum, and he was an active member, latterly commander, of the local Torpedo and Signal Corps, a coastal defence unit manned by citizen soldiers. Late in life he became the first president of the Beekeepers’ Club. He was elected to the Royal Society and awarded a CMG: all in all, a man of character and achievement.

Full textAbstract:
The object of research in this article is the ex-libris sphere of Ukraine in the period from the beginning of the 1990s to the present day. Ukrainian ex-libris actually began to exist in 1991, when it became possible to speak about the Ukrainian bookplate as a phenomenon of art rather than about it as a segment of Soviet graphic art. It has headily changed its character and started a different transformation since the early 1990s. Over the past 20 to 25 years, the Ukrainian bookplate not only has come out of the shadows, turning into a valuable work of art, but also has received several new roles, inheriting the stages of transformation that took place in other countries. If earlier the book plate mainly served as an identifier of the owner, had mainly an informative function and was hidden from the eyes of the public, now it has become not just a work of graphic art, but an art object that, due to its typological diversity and specific artistic qualities, quickly acquired the status of not only an exhibited work of mini-print, but also a collectible. Ex-libris is more often exhibited, it is collected by artists, graphic artists, bibliophiles, and patrons. It has become a kind of an instrument for intercultural dialogue, promoting international communication. The change in the functional charac-teristics of ex-libris, the expansion of the circle of customers, the rapid growth of inter-est in the bookplate, and the increase in demand for it provoked a change in the status of the bookplate among artists themselves. If earlier the book platewas only one of the pages of the creative biography of a number of artists, now there are many masters who specialize in it, who have turned it into the main object of their professional interest. The commercialization of the phenomenon has developed: EL has become a kind of a pass to the international art space for young artists. The Ukrainian cultural field re-ceived its center of popularization of the bookplate as a self-valuable work of art of small-form graphics in 1993, when the Ukrainian ex-libris club was created in Kyiv. In the winter of 1993/94, the first international exhibition Woman in Ex-Libris” was held in the Ukrainian capital. In 1994, the international ex-libris competition Many Reli-gions – God Is One was organized. Since the beginning of the 1990s, there has been a clear tendency to separate several leading schools. The most original, with characteristic stylistic features, schools of the modern Ukrainian bookplate became Lviv, Odessa, Kyiv, Kharkiv. There are also several hotbeds of ex-libris popularization in Ukraine, with great professionals in the field of mini-print, but they are few to speak about inde-pendent schools: Luhansk, Mukachevo, Severodonetsk, Sumy, Chernihiv, Chernivtsi. In today’s art space of the country, the bookplate owes its survival primarily to collec-tors and patrons, and its main, perhaps, the only, way to preserve it in the art world is to transform it into an instrument of intercultural dialogue, integration into the internation-al field, without losing its national identity.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the article is to study and clarify the main forms of cultural cooperation of Western European cultural and leisure centers with European countries.
The methodology. The descriptive method and the systemic approach were applied, the review references of the National library of Yaroslav Mudryi “On cultural cooperation of Ukraine with foreign countries” for 2017–2020 and numerous Internet sources were worked out.
The results. It was found out that cultural and leisure centers, including the ones in Western Ukraine, take an active part in intercultural cooperation between Ukraine and European countries. As European countries have for a long time involved culture as a factor in humanitarian development, and leading European countries allocate significant funds and attract the best professionals to implement largescale cultural projects and to increase their presence in Ukraine, so the increase of the number of cultural projects, programs, European culture days, printed and electronic publications, media product will justify themselves as the means of increasing the interest of the Ukrainian public in Europe. By cultural and leisure centers we mean various forms of cultural institutions that are part of the basic network of cultural institutions, including libraries, museums, galleries, reserves, exhibition halls, theaters, philharmonics, concert organizations, art groups, cinemas, film and video distribution enterprises, associations, palaces and houses of culture, other club establishments, educational establishments in the field of culture, art schools, studios, parks of culture and recreation. These institutions carry the lion’s share of all art exhibitions, projects, events and other cultural events taking place in Ukraine. In Western Ukraine, cultural and leisure centers are one of the main subjects in the process of cultural development of the country, without which it is impossible to achieve the strategic goals of Ukraine’s development in the field of culture. Among the events that promote European integration of Ukraine there are international festivals with European representatives, exhibitions, concerts, thematic events, master classes, workshops, trainings, training courses, creative laboratories, scientific cooperation — conferences, forums, seminars which take place in Lviv, Ternopil, IvanoFrankivsk, Volyn, Rivne regions in offline and online formats.
The scientific novelty: the article attempts to study the role of cultural and leisure centers of Western Ukraine in the formation of a single European sociocultural space.
The practical significance. The analyzed practical experience of European cooperation of cultural and leisure centers of Western Ukraine can be borrowed by the institutions of other regions.

Full textAbstract:
THE CHERNELYTSIA CASTLE IN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE LATE 19TH–20TH CENTURYFor a long time, it was believed that the Chernelytsia Castle in Pokuttia did not attract much attention from artists due to its relatively small size and remoteness from the main roads. This should have resulted in a small amount of illustrative material, primarily photographs, depicting the castle. However, the actual situation is different. Over the last ten years, archival and library searches conducted by a team of Polish and Ukrainian researchers have made it possible to discover, identify, date, and publish numerous photographs of the Chernelytsia Castle. The discovered photographs are stored in the National Library in Warsaw, the Archive of the Department of Polish Architecture at Warsaw University of Technology, the Institute of Art of the Polish Academy of Sciences, the Karta Center in Warsaw, the Central State Historical Archive of Ukraine in Lviv, the Vasyl Stefanyk National Scientific Library of Ukraine in Lviv, the Scientific and Technical Archive of the Institute ‘Ukrzakhidproektrestavratsiya’ in Lviv, and the private collections of Oleksandr Kahlian, Levko Kvyatkovskyy, and Vitaliy Nagirnyy. All currently known photographs of the Chernelytsia Castle were taken between the 1880s to 1990s using the traditional method and classic photographic equipment. The earliest ones date back to the 1880s and were made by Kolomyian photographer Juliusz Dutkiewicz in 1880 for the Ethnographic Exhibition of Pokuttya in Kolomyia. Over the next few years, photographs of the castle by an unknown author (1884) and Albin Fridrich (between 1892 and 1904) appeared. A large number of photographs of the Chernelytsia Castle were taken in the interwar period. In 1921, 7 photographs of the castle were taken by an unknown photographer on the request of the Conservative Club in Lviv. Another 23 photographs of the fortress were taken in 1935 by Bogdan Guerquin. In addition, during this period, a number of other single photographs of the castle were taken by unidentified authors, which are currently preserved in private collections. The photographs of the Chernelytsia Castle from the second half of the 20th century by Ostap Kudybin (second half of the 1960s) and Ihor Starosolskyy (1969-1971) are of great importance. The significance of these photographs cannot be overestimated. They are a unique source that allows us not only to show the state of the castle in different periods, from the late 19th century to the late 20th century, but also to illustrate the dynamics of changes and losses of fortifications, and even to try to reconstruct the original appearance of the historical monument. Some of the photographs described in the article have been published before, while others are published for the first time.

Abstract The appearance of libraries in Romantic-period literature raises questions about the very purpose of books and reading. Jane Austen’s observation of attitudes towards private libraries in her fiction opens avenues into understanding the social significance of books in the period. Taking a cue from Austen, the chapter compares key poems by George Crabbe and Charles Shillito in relation to the widening social sphere of reading, book discussion, and acquisition in the period. General awareness of literature was heightened by the expansion of provincial book clubs, private libraries, and bibliomania, which were in turn reflected in writing of the period. Books were valued not just for the intellectual, entertaining, or aesthetic quality of the contents but also as status symbols and prompts for sociability. Exploration of the social dimensions of books and reading within poems of the period has important implications for traditional definitions of the figure of the Romantic poet.

Casapini’s Herbarium is an 18th century manuscript, belonging to the Palatina Library in Parma and currently stored at the Botanical Garden of Parma University. The Herbarium collects nearly 200 samples of dried plant specimens that have been severely affected by physical, biological and chemical degradation. In 2016 the Inner Wheel Club Italia-Parma Est, an international female association, decided to fund the conservation of this Herbarium in order to preserve it and allow its study. A large team of professionals, including conservators, chemists, physicists and a botanist, has been working on the project to secure this unique but very fragile object. This paper discusses the condition assessment, the identification of degradation processes and the first conservation approach to the Casapini Herbarium. Issues related to the treatment of heavily corroded areas, the resewing of the sections and the future storage of the manuscript are also identified and highlighted for further research.

In the Marciana library the pressmark Classe XI, 45 (7439), as is well known, stands for Francesco de Madiis’s Zornale. What is less well known is that it actually refers to two manuscripts. Together with the Zornale, usually placed inside the front cover, is kept another, much smaller, manuscript list of books. The records of the library showed that the two documents arrived together in 1812, after their discovery in the attics of Palazzo Ducale. So far the second manuscript has not drawn the attention of scholars and no study on the Zornale has ever mentioned it; the relationship between the two is nevertheless worth clarifying. The manuscript, a quarto in agenda format, consists of sixteen leaves and the list is composed of 262 entries, among which there are 235 printed books. Its transcription and analysis allow the identification of the books and, in some cases, of the editions, revealing the presence of a significant number of books printed beyond the Alps, most of which are related to the Reformation, thus giving a clue to the identity of the owner, as well as a date, showing that the list could not have been written earlier than 1543.

Abstract What is the world of the budding scientist like? For students in their first few years of training who are not working in the lab or field, life is not totally different from that of an undergraduate. Students attend classes, spend hours in the library gathering articles for papers that they have to write, work on problem sets, study for exams. They are challenged to think more deeply, carefully, and creatively than they were when they were undergraduates, however, and memorization is not emphasized. They likely spend a few hours each week attending seminars and journal clubs. Characteristically, they take knowledge very seriously and aresearching for questions that they want to devote themselves to in later years. Students who are also expected to participate in research during these years may start out by working on simple projects or by helping more advanced researchers; temporarily assisting others is a good way to learn techniques and scientific thinking, and students who work long and hard at this may have their efforts re warded by middle authorship on the published studies. Students do not really have to know much about a field to physically start researching at a “cookbook” level. Many are actually unaware of the meaning of their work until they later fill in the gaps in their knowledge.

Today’s parents have a lively interest in. assisting their children as learners, and this interest has spawned a plethora of books on home reading programs. It's natural to raise this question, then: why yet another book for helping children read at home? Surely the bookstore and library shelves are groaning with volumes that can help you create a "home schoolroom," enough to produce a nation of advanced readers. Why yet another book? For good reasons, believe me. Obviously, most parents want to help their children learn. A couple of years ago, Professor Joyce Epstei at Johns Hopkins surveyed the parents of more than 250 Baltimore children. Her findings, reported in The New York Times, showed that kids had higher reading scores if parents supported their youngsters' efforts at home. What's even more interesting is that although mothers and fathers wanted to involve themselves actively in their children's learning, very few knew just what to do. A shocking eighty per cent reported that they didn't have a clue about where to begin in helping their children succeed in school. With this apparent insecurity, many moms and dads are reaching for books in an effort to learn what they don't know. Hence, all the how-to-helpyour- child read productions. However, unlike Any Child Can Read Better, most "home learning" books address parents of toddlers and preschoolers and attempt to create a race of superkids who can read almost before they can walk. Teach-your-child- to-read books concentrate on turning the home nursery into a classroom—reading drills with flash cards, oversized words pinned as labels on familiar objects, interminable sessions on alphabet skills, phonetics, sight vocabulary, and sounding-out words. Too many books for parents of young learners have turned on the pressure and have turned off the pleasure for mothers and fathers as guiders and shapers of learning experiences. Moms and dads are not drill sergeants. Home isn't boot camp. If you're the mother or father of a preschooler, unless you're home learning parents who won't send your children to school in any case, don't teach your son or daughter how to read.

Population ageing and urbanisation are two major global trends. With ongoing rapid urbanisation and the global population's shift toward an older age structure, older people need to be given significant consideration in community building. Community home-based care has become the choice of most elderly people. The elderly can be regarded as a valuable community resource. According to the current problems faced by the elderly and community residents, this paper proposes a new shared service model based on the theory of service design and distributed economy. In this model, elderly people can open up free space in their homes as a club, mini library, etc., where community residents can share resources, experiences or interests with others. The aim is to help the elderly participate in community activities and create value for the community. This model helps improve the well-being of older people and the sense of belonging of community residents.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Operational Excellence is paramount in oil & gas industries. Various efforts were made to achieve incident free while promoting efficient operation. However, in massive operation activities, the challenges become even greater because of the Short of Service Employee (SSE). The aggressive in increasing number of Rigs creates a high number of newcomers with limited skill, competence, and experience. Nevertheless, dynamics challenge operations are not an excuse to fail. Operation must be run safely for business continuity. Appropriate solutions are figured out to bridge the condition and applying Knowledge Management (KM) is one of them. Drilling & Completion Rokan believes that learning culture is a strong foundation in achieving the vision and mission of the organization. The learning process has been carried out from the management level to the Business Partner's frontliners under learning group called D&C Learning Club - DCLC. Information and knowledge sharing is always delivered face-to-face or via online meetings. Digital technology such as social media has proven to be practical, easy to do and accelerates the learning process. However, this application has limitations for use in very massive and complex environments. Therefore, D&C Rokan has developed a KM platform that is more robust and provides better value. The development research begins with the mapping process for the required knowledge. This mapping is scoped on Drilling operation and Engineering support. Then SWOT and TOWS analyzes were carried out to support the decision-making process in selecting applications for the KM platform. Decisively, team decided to choose "SharePoint" application because of its superiority in security, infrastructure availability, memory capacity and ability to provide an environment for community interaction, transforming knowledge based on a knowledge creation model, known as SECI - Socialization, Externalization, Combination, and Internalization. The KM application, which is called KM&L, consists of 3 main parts: discussion platform, digital library, and learning calendar. The learning community remains a major factor in the success of achieving a learning culture. Activeness in questions and answers, discussion to find solutions, challenging each other and involving Subject Matter Experts (SME) will accelerate the process of creating knowledge, which is documented in a digital library. KM&L is expected to become One Stop Shop Learning. The expectation is not only to accelerate the learning curve for SSE, but also to retain knowledge for communities. These will eventually become one of the competitive advantages for D&C Rokan in achieving operational excellence: incident free operation and world class reliability & efficiency.

Full textAbstract:
The management of born-digital content is becoming an increasingly relevant task in the different cultural fields, thus the long-term preservation of digitally generated material has been in the focus of the archivist community since the beginning of the new millennium. In the early twenty-first century, the Library of Congress pointed out its concerns about the fragility of the solely digitally created records. Since such material does not have an analog (physical) version, there is a greater risk of either getting lost, or not being available or accessible in their original form as historical records for future researchers. Preserving digitally generated correspondence between individuals has been an important research area of digital archiving for many years. There are already good practices for archiving e-mails, being a priority especially in the corporate sector. However, merely preserving and making e-mails researchable is not the only issue, since in the case of the cultural heritage materials for instance a critical attitude and a curatorial practice is also essential in the archiving work. Furthermore, one of the reasons why a general solution to e-mail preservation still has not yet been found is that archiving e-mails at different stages of their lifecycle requires radically different solutions. Our research project at the National Laboratory for Digital Heritage focuses on the longterm preservation of an e-mail heritage, more precisely the electronic correspondence of a Hungarian critic and literary historian from Cluj-Napoca (Transylvania), Lajos Kántor. We are investigating how e-mail archiving tools can be used in this specific field, how e-mails can be made visible and researchable as an integral part of the overall heritage, and how the experience gained in preserving and processing paper-based correspondence can be used in archiving and publishing e-mails.
