Contemporary Libyan prosaist, short story writer and novelist, awardee of numerous literary prizes, one of the best authors of modern Arabic novel, Ibrahim al-Koni is best described by his own words: “I don’t live anymore in the desert but the desert still lives in me”. The breath of desert, its colors are very strong in the writer’s life and works. He feels the heartbeat of the desert, the philosophy of living in the desert, laws of life and death with some sixth sense. The writer offers to the readers of his novels amazingly vivid illustrations of the desert lifestyle that has not changed up to present, the moral code, the laws and philosophy of life and death, the doctrine of classical Sufism in today’s life.Fate, time, fluidity of life, talisman and the destiny of people linked with one another with amazing creative power leads the readers to the miraculous mystic world and makes him think in a new way about all this.BN Ibrahim al-Koni is not the only one who chose desert as the main theme of his literary work. However, the thing for which Ibrahim al-Koni is outstanding among the ones who have perfectly knowledgeable at the rules of the desert, leaves an endless trace on his view as a writer. That natural peace and quiet, which the open space of the desert has that can eliminate any sorrow of a man, can purify the spirit of a person from evil and fill with magical energy; it is the place of running away from reality and shelter in the realm that has not been discovered yet – “lost paradise”, the purity of which is delivered to the reader in an unspoiled manner by the author.This writer, locked in Arabic world like Libya itself, suddenly opened up to the remained world and gained intoxicating success and popularity. What makes Ibrahim al Koni’s “magic realism”, unique manner of his prose and distinguished writer’s idiom?! In the opinion of literary critics, the key to his success is thorough awareness in the desert laws and love and deep knowledge of Sahara and Russian literature.On the example of “Gold Dust”, Ibrahim al-Koni’s famous novel, this article emphasizes, on one hand, adherence to the pre-Islamic literary traditions and equestrian code of honor and on the other – the contrasts, opposing pairs on which this small novel is built. Popularity of the contrasts is clearly seen in thematic collisions and emphasizing of conflicting qualities of the characters.These opposing pairs, with their qualities, underline the main antithesis, these are:spiritual values – worldly values (signs of destiny, craft of fate) and emphasize conceptual difference between them.Death of the main character of the novel, Ukhayad and his sign – dream about himself, locked in the dark house, the nightmare from his childhood, is the Suf metaphor of freeing from the individual’s worldly prison – life and body – and joining the eternity of soul.

Digitization of books and other works as well as making them available on the Internet have caused a number of problems across the EU. One of the problems, namely, the digitization of works which right holders cannot be identified or located (“orphan works”) has been addressed in the EU Directive on certain permitted uses of orphan works (2012/28/EU) (“Orphan Works Directive”). This research analyzes the issues that need to be addressed by Lithuanian law maker when transposing the Orphan Works Directive into the national law. In particular, after providing a general evaluation of the Directive, the research paper discusses the organizations that should be allowed to make use of the copyright exception for orphan works as implemented in the Directive, copyrighted subject matter which is covered by the Directive, requirements that apply to the search for right holders and documentation of such a search, how the works that are granted an orphan work status can be used by libraries and other organizations, what happens when the right holder of the orphan work appears and whether there is a need of supplementary national legal mechanisms in dealing with orphan works. The paper seeks to identify both the requirements and the flexibilities of the Directive and suggest the most suitable ways of implementation of the Directive in the national law.

In 2012 the Association Solidarité France-Pologne passed its archive to the Polish Library in Paris. It is the evidence of the activity of the Association set up in 1980. Its main task was to facilitate Polish-French contacts and to help the Polish society during the martial law. After 1989 the Association was actively involved in promoting non-governmental initiatives. The collection is divided into two chronological series, which are further subdivided into sub-series embracing strictly defined fields of the Association’s activity. The collection includes documents of various types, both files and audiovisual materials. The materials were sorted out in the way that at the beginning of each series there appeared documents connected with the management of the Association, followed by correspondence, documents divided according to various fields of activity, leaflets and press. The archival documents may complement the current research on the aid offered to “Solidarity” by Western Europe and may become a contribution to new research concerning the appearance of civil society in Poland and the role of French institutions in it.

In the inter-war period, the press constituted the most popular means of the formation of public opinion. The periodical-related tradition in Upper Silesia was deeply rooted in the culture of this region. A systematic habit of reading encouraged the bishops of Katowice to promote Catholic books and the press. Owing to the current press releases one familiarised the readers with the recently published material and with the means of purchasing and distributing the press, as well as one provided information about recommending reading. The diocesan press provided information about pernicious literature and warned against the reading of primitive sensational literature, love stories and pornographic materials, as well as the literature which radically opposed the Catholic faith, morality and mores.

În urma retroconversiei dintr-un program vechi în unul nou, apar o serie de probleme pe care catalogatorul este bine să le identifice și să le rezolve. Acest lucru este necesar pemtru ca înregistrările vechi să își găsească locul lor firesc în noua bază de date. Articolul de față enumeră acele probleme pe care le-am identificat în urma retroconversiei din CDS/ISIS în TINLIB, precum și modul în care le-a rezolvat biblioteca A.N.E.F.S. În felul acesta, am încercat să sugerăm celor care vor achiziționa programul TINLIB ca, după retro-conversie, să nu intre în panică datorită volu-mului mare de muncă, să identifice corect neconcordanțele ivite și să le elimine.

The collections of the Library and the Archive of the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk feature inter alia the collections of photography, both in the digital and in the analogue forms. Due to the nature of the collections which refer to the history of the school, including the most recent history, we may classify them as a part of cultural heritage. These valuable resources require protection accompanied by the respect of the right of making them accessible. One of the forms of the protection of analogue collections has to do with the making of digital archives of photographs, due to which databases are established, and these in turn also require security, management and the development of appropriate descriptions. The activities of the employees of the Library and the Archive of the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk for the protection of the photographical collections which are presented in the article are supposed to demonstrate how the results of the process of the digitalisation of photographs may be used and how to reach a wider group of recipients by means of the internet.

The beginning of the Lublin bibliographic culture of the Lublin scholarly community dates back to the late 19th century and is connected with Hieronim Łopaciński. In 1891 he published the bibliographic review entitled ‘Periodical Publications in Lublin’. This initiative was continued in the interwar period, when, under the influence of regionalism and the development of research, the general current ‘Bibliography of the Lublin Province’ prepared by Wiktor Hahn was published. In addition, the first regional bibliographies in the field of history and literature were released. In the 1920s the pioneer, retrospective ‘Bibliography of Lublin’ was being prepared, but the work was not completed.The work on bibliography intensified in Lublin after World War II. With the emergence of new universities, the development of research infrastructure and the increase in the research personnel, the Lublin scholars began a number of bibliographic projects. They were interested in general, special and regional bibliographies. They prepared subject, author(s) and local bibliographies, the bibliographies of the magazine contents as well as the lists of dissertations.

La Biblioteca Storica del Collegio di Sant’Adriano è una delle meraviglie che il complesso monumentale custodisce gelosamente tra le sue mura. Essa può considerarsi la memoria storica del Collegio perché porta con sé l’eredità del primo periodo della sua fondazione avvenuta nel 1733 (o1735) a San Benedetto Ullano, un paese italo-albanese della provincia di Cosenza. Il Collegio venne fondato sotto gli auspici di Papa Clemente XII – Corsini per espresso desiderio di un suo compagno di studi, Felice Samuele Rodotà, nativo di San Benedetto Ullano. Entrambi desideravano istruire il clero italo-albanese alla conservazione del rito greco-bizantino.

This paper aims at introducing and testing the novel measures of research functionality and efficiency from the point of view of internationalization of academic publishing and introduction of global research career paths in the digital epoch. We analyse the recent trends in research productivity and academic publishing and scrutinize the novelties such as PlumX and Publons. Moreover, we tackle the issue of gaming with altmetrics using new digital technologies. Apart from that, we focus on the world’s two most prestigious journal indexation databases, Scopus and Web of Science, and demonstrate how academic productivity might differ across academic fields and countries using their data and analytical tools. Our results might be helpful and useful in finding connections and links between research functionality, efficiency and classifications of academic productivity yielded in published research output (such as the number of papers, books, or book chapters calibrated by the impact factor (IF) or Scopus journal ranking (SJR)). The outcomes of our research would be of a special importance for bibliometricians, librarians, research policy specialists, and other global research, education, and academic stakeholders.

Among numerous genres of sacred music (such as chorales, hymns, motets, masses, etc.), Requiem, or otherwise Missa pro defunctis, Missa defunctorum (Mass for the Deceased) stands out. It is the Mass for the Deceased, corresponding to the Roman Catholic Missal, that is celebrated mainly during the funeral. Over time, Requiem has become a vocal-instrumental genre, a composition associated with the theme of death and mourning. In the 19th century, two principal forms of the genre of Requiem co-existed: a proud, concert-type form, heavily influenced by secular music, and a more modest, reserved, and more “traditional” liturgical one. The latter was smaller in scope, written for a more modest composition of performers in a simpler music language and of a non-dramatic character. The development of the liturgical Requiem over the period in question was largely affected by the Cecilian Movement, active also in Lithuania. True, it is also possible to discuss an intermediate link between the concert and the liturgical types of Requiem – a concert-type vocal-instrumental Requiem, which could also be performed in liturgy.The paper focuses on the manuscripts of the Requiem compositions re-written in the 19th century that were once performed in churches of Vilnius and other cities of Lithuania and currently are stored in in the Rare Books and Manuscripts Reading Room of the Martynas Mažvydas National Library of Lithuania and in the Manuscript Department of the Vilnius University Library. These are copies of the Requiem compositions by the following authors: Gioacchino Albertini (1748–1812), Josef Becher (1821–1888), Luigi Cherubini (1760–1842), Max Filke (1855–1911), Joseph Gruber (1855–1933), Lambert Kraus (1728–1790), Antonio Rosetti (1750–1792), and Johann Baptist Schiedermayr (1779–1840).

Purpose of Article. A purpose of the work is to study the features of princely patronage on the example of prince V.K. Ostrozkyi and to analyze his role in the history of philanthropy of Ukraine at the end of the 16th and early 17th centuries. Methodology of the research applies historical-comparative and art-study methods. The scientific novelty of the work consists in expanding the notion of princely patronage activity and his contribution to the processes of national revival of Ukraine in the second half of the 16th — the first half of the 17th century. The conducted analysis makes it possible to say that the patronage of prince V.K. Ostrozkyi has a prominent story. Countless riches of V.K.

The magnitude of the cultural contribution of prince V.K. Ostrozkyi is identical to the scale of his personality as a patron and cultural figure, and as the generator of important cultural creative initiatives. Conclusions. Patronage activity of prince V.K. Ostrozkyi was a continuation of the princely patronage of Kyiv Rus and the apex of the princely patronage of Ukraine in the late 16th and early 17th centuries.
