Still More Digital Library Resources - (USA)
I continue to shop around, kicking the tires on content management systems for Web sites and software for digital collections libraries. I'm planning to download Drupal (digital content management for Web sites) and experiment with it. As for Digital Collection management, I'm leaning strongly toward Archon, and have downloaded and started to play with it as a tool in managing the historical society's cataloging project. However, all this shopping is a recursive project. As I've tried to underst

With conflict raging in the Middle East, the concerns about the destruction or looting of antiquities make the newspapers and other news outlets on a nearly daily basis; a lot of what is being considered is archival in nature, encompassing ancient texts and documents.

Museums and the Battle Over Our Ancient Heritage (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2008) offers one perspective on the issues concerning the preservation of our ancient heritage. Cuno, the Pr

How public libraries can overcome budget cuts through cultural, educational, and business partnerships By Thomas Badgett In the current difficult economic times, libraries of all sizes and types face budget cuts, often quite severe. At the same time the need and demand for library services surges. In order to minimize cutbacks libraries need to play to their strengths and promote how much value they offer to anyone who chooses to use them. They need to inform the

The old stone Albemarle County Jail stands behind an 18-foot brick wall that surrounds the structure. PHOTO BY DAVE MCNAIR Now that the $20 million renovation of the old Juvenile & Domestic Relations Court is almost finished, another historic building in need of repair stands in sharp contrast to the new construction, boxed in as it is by a brand new parking garage: the old Albemarle County Jail.

Tough time for creative types - (USA)
In the hustle and bustle of Friday night’s deliberation of the $700 billion bail-out plan in the United States Senate, another bill passed through without much knowledge of the Senators themselves. The S. 2913 Shawn Bentley Orphan Works Bill looks to “limit the remedies in a civil action brought for infringement of copyright in an orphan work” as stated on the Congress activities tracking Web site govtrack.com. The bill passed via a method called “hotlining.” Hotlining is a method of voting on

Why people steal from libraries-FT - (USA)
[ CJ Hinke of FACT comments : I collect rare books. I often could remove the illustrations from these books and sell them for far more than the value of the book itself. I have never done that nor even been tempted. The historical value has always been more precious to me. I have also refrained from buying disbound plates for the same reason. For many years, I have been buying and repatriating The Devil’s Discus to Thailand. In fact, I was advised to steal Harry Nicolaides’ Verisimiltude fro

A Day in the Newseum - (USA)
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of taking a trip to the Newseum. Located near the National Archives on Pennsylvania Avenue, the facility is a huge, modern building dedicated to memorializing and exploring the free (and the not-so-free) press. I've lived in Washington for over a year, and visited many of its museums, but the Newseum is by far my favorite. I'll go so far as to endorse it: If you're in Washington and have time for only one museum, visit the Newseum. But make sure to have plen

Wikipedia Steals from UK National Portrait Gallery - (USA)
Here’s a compelling case of self-interest presented as public interest reported by the BBC . The National Portrait Gallery in the UK makes £339,000 a year from the rights to high resolution images from their collection being reproduced in other media. The gallery claims it has invested £1m in the digitizing effort. A volunteer for Wikipedia used software to extract high-resolution images from the NPG’s site that are not meant to be downloadable.

Affordable Paris: Museums for free - (USA)
Paris museums house some of the best collections in the world, but they aren't cheap dates. Entry to the Musée d'Orsay costs 8€ ($11.50), the great Louvre is 9€ ($12), and the Centre Pompidou is 12€ ($16). These admission fees can add up if you're planning to visit more than one museum, and especially if you're paying for a whole family.
