The purpose of the article is to characterise the main stages of the evolution and current vectors of development of tertiary library and information education in African countries. Research methodology. Complex application of systematic, historical, and comparative approaches, as well as empirical methods of scientific cognition enable revealing the main stages of evolution of tertiary library and information education on the African continent, determining the factors that influence its development and modernisation and contribute to the gradual transition to a multilevel model and transformational educational standards. The scientific novelty of the work is based on the results of comparative and content analyses of the Bachelor, Master, and Ph.D. degree programs in the Library and Information Sciences at African national universities in historical retrospective. These results reveal the main stages of development of Library and Information tertiary education, as well as vectors of its modernisation on the African continent. Conclusions. The study of the genesis of library schools in African universities, as well as content analysis of the introduced educational programs in training specialists at different educational levels allowed determination of the main stages of the evolution of tertiary library education on the African continent. In particular, these stages are as follows: the stage of emergence (early 1960s – late 1980s), the stage of active development (1990 – 2000s), and the stage of modernisation changes (2010s – present). However, even now, only 10 per cent of African countries have educational units that provide two or three levels of tertiary library education. The main factors behind the slow development of multilevel library and information education in African countries are the insufficiency of academic and teaching personnel who would ensure the high production rate of Masters and Doctors of Philosophy in the field of Library and Information Sciences; underestimation by African countries’ governments of the role of high-quality training for information specialists and, as a result, an annual reduction in the number of budget places in the Library and Information Sciences specialty; poor organisational, methodical, technical, and technological infrastructure for ensuring the educational process.

The study regarding the behavior of researchers with respect to scientific literature analyses topics such as: the preference in obtaining electronic information, compared to the traditional way (printed), the preferred location when accessing electronic information (from within the university campus or from the outside), the type of preferred documents (book, scientific articles, conference proceedings etc), language preferences based on the user’s scientific profile. The respondents were invited to formulate requests of new services, for maximizing the effectiveness and efficiency of the digital documentation process, for increasing efficacy of access, search and refining of the information. We also investigated the knowledge stock regarding open science, Creative Commons licenses, article processing charge (APC), Plan S, the European regulations regarding open data, and continued with researching the acceptance level of switching from the pay-and-read model to the pay-and-publish model. Due to the fact that libraries are info-documentary entities directly involved in sustaining and promoting the new informational environment and the new publishing methods, the ways through which these objectives can be met were also analyzed, together with the roles of library and information science specialists in a world where terms such as online, electronic, digital define scientific documentation. The results of the study showed significant differences in the level of knowledge regarding the investigated concepts, as well as the need for involving university libraries in providing a suitable education for the acceptance of the new publishing methods.

The question of the time when the National Library of Serbia was founded is one of the most complex questions in the field of studying the historical development of this important institution. This issue has been addressed by many researchers, who presented various assumptions and conclusions in their works. This review paper will present the development of subject research in the mentioned field, with a special focus on scientific and professional papers in which some specific issues were considered, related to the acquisition of the first books (1830), the arrangement of the book fund at the state printing house (1831), the establishment of a legal deposit, the establishment of a library in the bookshop of Gligorije Vozarović (1832) and the formation of a unified book fund at the Ministry of Education (1838). Attention will also be pointed out to the attitude of researchers towards the scientific review of two key issues, the first of which refers to the creation of book collections that with its gradual unification, the original book collection of the National Library was created, while the second refers to the institutional formation of the library institution itself.

Innovations are present in all fields of human activity. Therefore, they are an indispensable segment of the activities of higher-educational institutions which are going through a very demanding process of development towards future forms of educational, scientific and research work. Higher education activities imply a continuous monitoring of innovations, and their application in the educational process. The aforementioned activities are also related to the academic library, which is an unavoidable factor in the process of carrying out scientific and educational work, and is, unlike the public library, closely related to innovative processes in education and the performance of scientific activities. Using innovative methods and solutions, along with transformational processes, the library must satisfy its users with knowledgeable staff, who are ready to answer questions and meet the challenges of increasingly demanding modern users. For this reason, employees in higher education libraries are obliged to continuously improve their level of education, and to constantly keep up with modern trends, with a particular emphasis on respecting what is prescribed by the principles of the code of ethics and the legal regulations in the field of library work, as well as in the field of activities of higher-educational institutions and the protection of intellectual property. In order for this entire process to be implemented, the management of these institutions must invest all their effort and knowledge into reaching their goals through efficient organisation and a strategy that will lead to a high quality of service and a competitive advantage in this market.

The article aims at the restitution of a book fund which, in the first half of the 19th century, was in the use of the Franciscan Monastery from Baia de Criș (Hunedoara County). The reconstitution of the library is based on an inventory list drafted on the occasion of the Canonical Visitation from 1830, in which 22 titles in 55 volumes are recorded.The library was scattered during the Revolution of 1848–1849, when the monastery burned down together with its archive and library. Therefore, the only certain document which preserves the image of the library of this abbey is the book inventory drafted in 1830.Although most of the books have not been identified in other collections, there is evidence that some of the volumes are kept even today in the library of the Franciscan Monastery in Deva. I have reached this conclusion following the research of the notes preserved on the books of the Franciscans in Deva.Based on the analysis of the titles of the books from Baia de Criș recorded in the inventory list of 1830, we observed that the universe of the books which were available for reading to the Franciscan monks from Baia de Criș comprised, for the most part, sermon volumes, canonical right books, monastic life regulations for the Franciscans, meditation and spiritual exercises books, as well as some geography, history and grammar copies. Religious books were mainly in German. Out of the total of 55 volumes, 30 of them were German sermon books, plus a Bible and a grammar in the same language. Polemical and moral theology books, as well as spiritual Christian books, were read in Latin, just like history books, Franciscan regulations and ecclesiastic legislation.

The circulation of old books on the territory of the Romanian Principalities is a quite often researched field of the history of old Romanian printed books. Unlike Transylvania, where the research on the circulation of old books was more emphasized, Moldova's research is quite limited and does not have great generalization power. Among the books kept at the Huşi Diocesan Museum, there are some printed in the Sibiu printing house of the Bart family. Among the 17 specimens researched „de visu”, in this paper we will give a brief presentation of a part of them.
