Summary/Abstract: In 2007, when the city of Sibiu (Romania) received the title of European Capital of Culture, the “Lucian Blaga” University Library was involved in its first digitization projects, the first one being SCRIBe - System for Processing and Visualization of the Old Book Fund. The main objective of the SCRIBe project was the development of an informational system offering the beneficiaries access to the old book fund, to which normal access was limited due to the scarcity of copies and due to the need of protecting documents with a high degree of wear. In the following years, we have concluded partnerships with local and county authorities developing our own digital library, which has since been growing continuously.
