Item A Blue Shield for the Protection of our Endangered Cultural Heritage(International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2003-05-22) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Koch, CorineDuring the past years, numerous and recurrent disasters have damaged an important part of the cultural heritage. Wars and ethnic or religious conflicts have also haphazardly or voluntarily destroyed it, hence the necessity of launching an information campaign so as to safeguard and protect, as far as possible, our memory in order to pass it on to future generations. Considering that amnesia is not a path towards the future and that libraries, as well as other cultural institutions (museums, archives, monuments and sites…) are responsible for the care and preservation of documentary heritage, IFLA-PAC decided to devote an Open Session to that theme during IFLA General Conference in Glasgow (2002). The project was supported by the Section on National Libraries.Item Care, Handling and Storage of Photographs(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2004-07) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Roosa, Mark; Robb, AndrewPhotographic materials have complex physical and chemical structures that present special preservation challenges to the librarian and archivist. Since the birth of photography in the late 1830s, many different photographic processes and materials have been utilized, each subject to deterioration through time and with use. Although deterioration is an ongoing natural process, nevertheless much can be done to slow the rate at which it takes place in photographs. Deteriorated photographs may require specialized conservation treatment by a professional photograph conservator, often a costly, skill-demanding, and time-consuming procedure. For the majority of photographs in research collections, single-item conservation of deteriorated photographs is probably not a feasible or a cost-effective preservation solution. Instead, preventive conservation actions such as maintenance of a good environment, promoting proper care and handling through staff and user education, and the use of good quality storage housings, will have a more lasting, positive impact on the preservation of a collection. This publication is intended to provide a basic understanding of how and why photographs deteriorate and what can be done to slow this process. The information below focuses on the photographic formats most commonly found in research libraries and archives, namely black-and-white silver prints, glass plate and film base negatives, color chromogenic dye photographs (including negatives, prints, and transparencies), and digital output or hard-copy: ink jet prints, dye sublimation prints, and electrostatic prints.Item El cuidado, manipulación y almacenamiento de fotografía(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2004-07) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Roosa, Mark; Robb, Andrew; Torres, Amparo R. de; Salazar, MartínLos materiales fotográficos tienen estructuras físicas y químicas complejas que presentan retos particulares para los bibliotecarios y archivistas en cuanto a su preservación. Desde los primeros comienzos de la fotografía a finales de 1830, muchos procesos y materiales fotográficos se han utilizado, cada uno con sus propias características de deterioro a través del tiempo, y al ser manipulados. Aunque el deterioro es un proceso continuo y natural, hay muchas medidas que se pueden tomar para reducir la tasa a la cual estos procesos suceden y afectan las imágenes fotográficas. Las fotografías deterioradas pueden requerir tratamientos de conservación especializados que deben ser hechos por un conservador de fotografías profesional. Muchas veces esto resulta muy costoso, se requiere gran experiencia y mucho tiempo. Para la mayoría de fotografías en las colecciones de investigación, el tratamiento de fotografías individuales como solución de preservación probablemente no es posible, por el alto costo que esto implica. Como alternativa, puede tener un impacto mucho más duradero y positivo en la preservación de las colecciones el promover medidas de cuidado y manipulación apropiadas por medio de programas de educación dirigidos a los empleados y usuarios, la utilización de envoltorios de la mejor calidad (fundas, sobres y cajas) para su almacenamiento y el mantener condiciones ambientales óptimas en las áreas de depósito y exhibición. El objetivo de esta publicación es ofrecer un nivel básico de información sobre cómo y por qué las fotografías se deterioran y qué se puede hacer para disminuir la tasa a cual estos procesos suceden. Esta es información puntual sobre los formatos mas comúnmente encontrados en las bibliotecas de investigación y en archivos, es decir impresiones en blanco y negro de gelatina de plata, negativos en placas de vidrio y sobre película, fotografías a color de tintes cromogénicos (incluyendo negativos, copias y transparencias), y las impresiones de fotografías digitales: impresiones hechas con impresoras de inyección de tinta, copias hechas por el sistema de sublimación de tintes y copias electrostáticas.Item Entretien, manipulation et rangement des photographies(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2004-07) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Roosa, Mark; Robb, Andrew; Koch, CorineLa structure physique et chimique complexe des documents photographiques représente, en termes de conservation, un défi particulier pour le bibliothécaire et l’archiviste. Depuis la naissance de la photographie jusqu’à la fin des années 1830, de nombreux procédés et des matériaux divers ont été utilisés dans le domaine de la photographie, dont aucun n’a résisté à l’usage et à l’épreuve du temps. Même si la détérioration représente un processus naturel continu, on peut toutefois faire beaucoup pour ralentir la vitesse à laquelle elle affecte les photographies. La restauration des photographies détériorées peut nécessiter un traitement particulier et les services d’un restaurateur spécialisé en photographie, une procédure souvent coûteuse, qui fait appel à des compétences spécifiques et représente des heures de travail. La restauration à l’unité de photographies détériorées n’est probablement pas une mesure de conservation possible ou rentable pour la majorité des collections de recherche. Par contre, des mesures de conservation préventive telles que le maintien de bonnes conditions environnementales, une sensibilisation du personnel comme des utilisateurs à des méthodes adaptées en termes d’entretien et de manipulation, l’emploi de conditionnements de stockage de bonne qualité auront un impact plus durable pour la conservation à long terme d’une collection. Cette publication se propose de fournir les éléments essentiels à la compréhension du processus de détérioration des photographies, des causes qui lui sont associées et des solutions susceptibles de ralentir ce processus. Les informations qui suivent ont pour objet les formats photographiques que l’on rencontre le plus souvent dans les bibliothèques de recherche et les services d’archives : les tirages argentiques noir et blanc, les négatifs sur plaques de verre ou sur films, les photographies en couleur chromogènes (y compris les négatifs, les tirages et les diapositives) et les impressions en sortie d’ordinateur : impressions par jet d’encre, par sublimation thermique et par copie élecrostatique.Item IFLA Disaster Preparedness and Planning: A Brief Manual(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2006-03) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); McIlwaine, John; Varlamoff, Marie-ThérèseThe IFLA Preservation and Conservation Core Activity (PAC) has one major goal: “to ensure that library and archive materials, published and unpublished, in all formats will be preserved in accessible form for as long as possible.” Among the range of preventive measures which may postpone the decay of its collections, those included in disaster planning are of high priority. Looking back to recent events, we must acknowledge that armed conflicts and natural disasters do not lessen in number but, on the contrary, have a serious tendency to increase. In the framework of the Blue Shield, IFLA-PAC has been organising or participating in a number of events – conferences, seminars, workshops – in order to raise awareness on risks threatening the documentary heritage. In 2003 a survey was launched worldwide among national libraries in order to know which ones did have a disaster plan. Results were alarming. Out of 177 libraries, only 39 have a disaster plan. Although 28 intend to produce one, the reason stated for not having done so before was the lack of models. This is quite surprising if you consider the number of exis ting publications, manuals or booklets on the question. Nevertheless most of them are writ ten in English, some of them are extremely sophisticated and not applicable to small institutions with limited resources; consequently IFLA-PAC decided to prepare a basic manual focusing on the main points to take into consideration when writing a disaster plan: assessing risks, managing the disaster risk, getting ready to cope when disaster strikes, responding and getting back to normal are the main stages of this publication. In order to make it accessible to the greatest number of institutions world wide we publish it initially in a trilingual version (at first), hoping that this will arouse numerous other translations.Item IFLA načela za hrambo knjižničnega gradiva in ravnanje z njim(National and University Library Slovenia, 2005-09) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, Virginie; National and University Library SloveniaThis document is a general introduction to the care and handling of library material or individuals and institutions with little or no preservation knowledge. It does not provide a comprehensive list of detailed methods and practices, but gives basic information to assist libraries in establishing a responsible attitude to looking after their collections. The threats to collections are often known, but librarians frequently do not proclaim suciently loudly the consequences of ignoring the dangers. ‘IFLA Principles for the Care and Handling of Library Materials’ is therefore designed to encourage those responsible to face up to these consequences and, together with scientific and technical experts, to formulate a positive policy for the future of the material in their collections. Primarily, this publication sets out to: * expose the vulnerability of library material; * advance knowledge about the permanence and durability of library material; * encourage proper care and handling of library material; * aid library staff in their search for solutions to preservation problems; * encourage clear lines of communication among library managers, buildings managers, and preservation and library staff so that all concerned work towards preserving the library’s holdings.Item IFLA parimet mbi përkujdesjen dhe përdorimin e materialit bibliotekar(IFLA PAC, Paris & CLIR, Washington DC, 2004-06) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, VirginieKy dokument është një hyrje e përgjithshme në përkujdesjen dhe përdorimin e materialit bibliotekar për individë dhe institucione me njohuri të vogla apo pa fare njohuri në prezervim. Kjo nuk ofron një list gjithëpërfshirëse të metodave dhe praktikave të detajizuara, por sjell informacion bazë për të asistuar bibliotekat në krijimin e një qëndrimi të përgjegjshëm në përkujdesjen për koleksionet e tyre. Rreziqet për koleksionet shpesh janë të njohura, por bibliotekarët shpesh nuk i theksojnë zëshëm pasojat e injorimit të rreziqeve. ‘Parimet e IFLA-s për përkujdesjen dhe përdorimin e materialeve bibliotekare’, janë bërë kështu me qëllim të inkurajimit të atyre që janë përgjegjës për t’u ballafaquar me këto pasoja dhe që, së bashku me ekspertë shkencorë dhe teknikë, të bëjnë formulimin e një politike pozitive për të ardhmen e materialeve në koleksionet e tyre. Në rend të parë, ky publikim ka për qëllim: të ekspozojë rrezikshmërinë e materialit bibliotekar të avansojë njohurinë lidhur me vazhdimësinë dhe qëndrueshmërinë e materialit bibliotekar të inkurajojë përkujdesjen dhe përdorimin e duhur të materialit bibliotekar të ndihmojë stafin bibliotekar në kërkim të zgjidhjeve të problemeve të prezervimit të inkurajojë linja të qarta komunikimi midis drejtuesëve të bibliotekave, drejtuesëve të ndërtesave dhe stafit të prezervimit dhe të bibliotekave, në mënyrë që të gjithë të interesuarit të punojnë së bashku drejt prezervimit të përmbajtjeve të bibliotekave.Item IFLA Principes de conservation(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2002-08) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, Virginie; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, VirginieCe document est une introduction générale à la conservation des documents de bibliothèque à l’attention des institutions ou des individus sans connaissances particulières en conservation. Il ne détaille pas la totalité des méthodes et techniques existantes mais offre une information de base afin de responsabiliser les bibliothèques à prendre soin de leurs collections. On connaît souvent les menaces qui pèsent sur les collections mais les bibliothécaires n’insistent pas suffisamment sur les conséquences qu’entraîne une sous-estimation des dangers. Ces “Principes” sont donc destinés à encourager les responsables à s’entourer d’experts scientifiques et techniques et à élaborer une politique qui permette à leurs collections de traverser le temps dans les meilleures conditions possibles. Cette publication souhaite en premier lieu : • mettre l’accent sur la fragilité des documents de bibliothèque; • faire avancer les connaissances sur la permanence et la durabilité des documents de bibliothèque; • promouvoir de bonnes méthodes d’entretien et de manipulation des documents de bibliothèque; • aider les personnels de bibliothèque à trouver des solutions à leurs problèmes de conservation particuliers; • encourager les directeurs de bibliothèques, les architectes, les personnels en général et les personnels de conservation en particulier à communiquer librement afin que tous travaillent ensemble à la conservation des collections.Item IFLA Principes de conservation(IFLA PAC, Paris & CLIR, Washington DC, 2002-08-02) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, VirginieCe document est une introduction générale à la conservation des documents de bibliothèque à l’attention des institutions ou des individus sans connaissances particulières en conservation.

No proporciona una extensa lista de métodos ni prácticas en detalle, pero proporciona información básica para ayudar a las bibliotecas a establecer una actitud responsable en el cuidado de sus colecciones. A menudo se conocen los factores que amenazan a las colecciones, pero con frecuencia los bibliotecarios no denuncian de manera suficientemente enfática las consecuencias de ignorar tales riesgos. Por lo tanto, “Los Principios IFLA para el Cuidado y Manejo de Material de Bibliotecas” están diseñados para alentar a los responsables a enfrentar estas consecuencias, y junto con científicos y técnicos expertos, formular una política positiva para el futuro del material de sus colecciones. Esta publicación se orienta fundamentalmente a: • Dar a conocer la vulnerabilidad del material de bibliotecas; • Promover el conocimiento sobre la permanencia y durabilidad del material de bibliotecas; • Incentivar el cuidado y manejo adecuados del material de bibliotecas; • Ayudar al personal de bibliotecas en la búsqueda de soluciones frente a los problemas de preservación; • Incentivar líneas claras de comunicación entre los administradores de bibliotecas y edificios y el personal de preservación y de la biblioteca en general, de manera tal que todos velen por la preservación de las colecciones de la institución.Item IFLA Principles for the Care and Handling of Library Material(IFLA PAC, Paris & CLIR, Washington DC, 1999-05) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, VirginieThis document is a general introduction to the care and handling of library material or individuals and institutions with little or no preservation knowledge.

Pour l’UNESCO, cette méconnaissance des fonds disponibles de notre patrimoine culturel est une grave lacune, que l’enquête de grande envergure qui vient d’être lancée veut combler. Le présent rapport expose les résultats de cette enquête ainsi qu’une analyse des réponses.Item IFLA/UNESCO Survey on Digitisation and Preservation(International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2000-08) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); IFLA Core Programme on Universal Availability of Publications (UAP); UNESCO; Gould, Sara; Ebdon, Richard; Varlamoff, Marie-ThérèseAt the time of writing, a comprehensive worldwide listing of important digitised collections in libraries and other major cultural institutions does not exist. This has been recognised by UNESCO as a major gap in our knowledge and awareness of accessible cultural heritage collections, and a major worldwide survey on digitisation and preservation has now been undertaken in an effort to fill that gap. This report presents the results of that survey, and an analysis of the responses. The report provides a snapshot picture of the state of digitisation activity worldwide, and gives an indication of the rapid growth in this area in recent years.Item Kütüphane malzemesinin bakim ve kullaniminda IFLA ilkeleri(Istanbul University, 2011-07) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, Virginie; Somer, Şekibe NihalBu doküman, koruma hakkında bilgisi olmayan veya çok az olan bireyler ve kuruluşlar için kütüphane malzemesinin bakımı ve kullanımı ile ilgili genel giriş niteliğindedir. Yöntemler ve uygulamaların ayrıntılarını ve kapsamlı listelerini içermez; fakat kütüphane koleksi-yonlarının bakımında sorumlu bir davranış belirlenebilmesine yardımcı olan temel bilgiyi verir. Genellikle koleksiyonları bekleyen tehlikeler bilinmektedir. Fakat çoğu kez kütüp-haneciler bu tehlikeleri gözardı etmenin doğuracağı sonuçları yeterince yüksek sesle dile getirmezler. Bu nedenle Kütüphane Malzemesinin Bakımında ve Kullanımında IFLA İlkeleri, tehlikelerin doğuracağı sonuçları gidermekten sorumlu kişilerin yanı sıra bilimsel ve teknik uzmanları da koleksiyonlarındaki malzemelerin geleceğine yönelik doğru politikalar belirlemeleri konusunda cesaretlendirmek için planlanmıştır. Bu yayının yapılmasının öncelikli amacı: • Kütüphane malzemesinin zarar görebilme durumunu gözler önüne sermek; • Kütüphane malzemesinin kalıcılığı ve dayanıklılığı ile ilgili bilgi vermek; • Kütüphane malzemesinin uygun şekilde bakım ve kullanımını teşvik etmek; • Koruma sorunlarına çözüm bulmaya çalışan kütüphane personeline yardım etmek; • Kütüphane yöneticileri, binalardan sorumlu yöneticiler, koruma personeli ve kütüphane personeli arasında, tüm çalışmaların kütüphane mevcudunun korunmasını hedefleyecek şekilde yürütülmesini sağlayan iletişim hatlarının kurulmasını teşvik etmektir.Item Prevención de desastres y planes de emergencia: compendio de la IFLA(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2006-03) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); McIlwaine, John; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Hernandez, SolangeEl Programa PAC (preservación y conservación) de la IFLA tiene como principal objetivo preservar durante el mayor tiempo posible los documentos de bibliotecas, publicados o no, en cualquier soporte. Entre las diversas medidas preventivas que pueden retardar la degradación de las colecciones, se destacan en primer lugar las que tienen que ver con la elaboración de un plan de emergencia. Si se hace referencia a los eventos que han acaecido en los últimos años, se puede constatar que el número de conflictos armados y catástrofes naturales está en constante aumento. En el marco del Escudo Azul, IFLA-PAC ha decidido, por lo tanto, organizar o participar en numerosas manifestaciones, tales como conferencias, seminarios, talleres, destinadas a poner en evidencia los peligros que amenazan el patrimonio documental. Por ello, en el año 2003 realizó una encuesta mundial entre las bibliotecas nacionales cuyo objetivo era determinar cuáles de ellas no contaban todavía con un plan de emergencia. Los resultados fueron alarmantes. De las 177 bibliotecas encuestadas, solamente 39 contaban con un plan de emergencia y aunque 28 instituciones manifestaron su intención de preparar uno, la razón que con más frecuencia adujeron para no haberlo hecho aún es la carencia de un modelo. Una respuesta que resulta sorprendente si se toma en cuenta la cantidad de obras, manuales o folletos sobre el tema. No obstante, dado que la mayor parte de las publicaciones se encuentran en inglés, algunas de ellas son extremadamente detalladas y no pueden aplicarse a instituciones pequeñas cuyos recursos son limitados, IFLA-PAC tomó la decisión de publicar un manual básico que hiciera énfasis en los principales aspectos que se deben considerar al momento de elaborar un plan de emergencia: evaluación de los principales riesgos, manejo de dichos riesgos, reacción ante desastre y regreso a la normalidad, constituyen los temas principales del manual. A fin de facilitar su utilización por el mayor número de personas los publicamos en una versión trilingüe, esperando que ella dé lugar a muchas otras traducciones. Este manual ha sido elaborado por un pequeño grupo de colegas de bibliotecas y archivos. Deseo agradecer muy especialmente a John McIlwaine, antiguo presidente de la Sección de Preservación y Conservación de la IFLA quien nos aportó su larga experiencia y conocimientos y aceptó encargarse de la redacción de la versión original en inglés. Igualmente, deseo expresar mi agradecimiento a Ted Steemers, responsable de la conservación en el seno del Consejo Internacional de Archivos, por sus sabios consejos. Agradezco también a Corine Koch por la traducción al francés y la edición de la publicación y a Solange Hernández por la traducción al español.Item Prévention des catastrophes et plans d’urgence: précis de l’IFLA(IFLA PAC, Paris, 2006-03) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); McIlwaine, John; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Koch, CorineLe Programme PAC (Préservation et Conservation) de l'IFLA a pour objectif majeur de pré server pendant aussi longtemps qu’il est possible les documents de bibliothèques, publiés ou non, sur quelque support que ce soit. Parmi l'éventail des mesures préventives susceptibles de retarder la dégradation voire la dis parition des collections, figurent en première place celles qui s'intègrent dans l'élaboration d'un plan d'urgence. Si l’on se réfère aux événements survenus ces dernières années, force est de constater que le nombre de conflits armés et de catastrophes naturelles ne cesse d'augmenter. Dans le contexte du Bouclier Bleu, IFLA-PAC a donc décidé d'organiser ou de participer à nombre de manifestations conférences, séminaires, ateliers) destinées à mettre en évidence les dangers menaçant le patrimoine documentaire. Ainsi en 2003, il a lancé une enquête mondiale auprès des bibliothèques nationales afin de déterminer quelles étaient celles qui ne s'étaient pas encore dotées d'un plan d'urgence. Les résultats se sont avérés alarmants. Sur 177 bibliothèques interrogées, seules 39 d'entre elles avaient un plan d'urgence et si 28 institutions ont manifesté leur intention d'en préparer un, la raison le plus souvent invoquée pour ne pas l'avoir déjà fait était le manque ou l'absence de modèle. Réponse surprenante si l'on considère le nombre d'ouvrages, de manuels, ou de dépliants sur la question. Cependant, la plupart de ces publications étant en anglais, cer taines extrêmement détaillées et guère applicables aux petites institutions dont les ressources sont limitées, IFLA-PAC prit la décision de publier un manuel de base qui mettrait l'accent sur les principaux points à prendre en compte lors de l'élaboration du plan d'urgence : éva luation des principaux risques, gestion de ces risques, réaction face à la catastrophe, retour à la normale, tels sont les constituants principaux du manuel. Afin de faciliter son utilisation par le plus grand nombre, nous le publions dans une version trilingue en espérant que cela suscitera de nombreuses autres traductions. Ce manuel a été élaboré par un petit groupe de collègues des bibliothèques et des archives. Je voudrais remercier ici tout particulièrement John McIlwaine, ancien Président de la Section Préservation et Conservation de l'IFLA qui nous a apporté sa longue expérience et son expertise et qui a bien voulu se charger de rédiger la version originale en anglais. Mes remerciements vont également à Ted Steemers, responsable de la conservation au sein du Conseil international des archives pour ses conseils avisés. Un grand merci également à Corine Koch pour la traduction française et la mise en page de la publication, et à Solange Hernandez pour la traduction en espagnol.Item Principi dell’IFLA per la cura e il trattamento dei materiali di biblioteca(Biblioteca nazionale di Bari, 2004-12) IFLA Core Programme on Preservation and Conservation (PAC); Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR); Adcock, Edward P.; Varlamoff, Marie-Thérèse; Kremp, Virginie; Carcereri, Luciano; Martucci, RosaQuesto documento è una introduzione generale alla cura e al trattamento del materiale librario per privati e istituzioni dotati di una conoscenza scarsa o nulla in materia di conservazione. Non fornisce una lista esaustiva di metodi e procedure dettagliati, ma dà un’informazione di base per aiutare le biblioteche a formare una attitudine ad occuparsi responsabilmente delle proprie raccolte. Le minacce alle raccolte sono perlopiù note, ma spesso i bibliotecari non proclamano a voce sufficientemente alta le conseguenze dell’ignorare i pericoli. I Principi dell’IFLA per la cura e il trattamento dei materiali di biblioteca si propongono quindi di incoraggiare i responsabili ad affrontare le conseguenze e, insieme con esperti scientifici e tecnici, a formulare direttive per il futuro del materiale presente nelle loro raccolte. Fondamentalmente, questa pubblicazione si propone di • esporre la vulnerabilità del materiale librario; • promuovere la conoscenza intorno alla permanenza e alla durabilità del materiale librario; • promuovere la cura e il trattamento corretti del materiale librario; • aiutare il personale di biblioteca a cercare soluzioni per i problemi di conservazione • stimolare linee di comunicazione chiare tra direttore di biblioteca, ufficio tecnico, specialisti della tutela delle raccolte e personale di biblioteca, affinché tutti gli interessati operino nella direzione della conservazione del patrimonio della biblioteca.
