The guidelines are divided into five chapters and are intended as a white paper for all librarians dealing special collections. The document focuses on the figure of the librarian, his interactions with the collections owned by the cultural institution in which he works, his relations with the users. A remarkable tool especially from the point of view of professional ethics, the IFLA standard defines ideal situations to which documentation professionals can look for the strengthening of their knowledge.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Valentina Sonzinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15081The archive beyond the archive2022-06-23T07:35:19+02:00Mario Aldo Toscanomarioaldotoscano@gmail.com<p>The publication of Federico Valacchi’s book, Gli archivi tra storia, uso e futuro: dentro la società (Milano, Editrice Bibliografica, 2021) it is an opportunity to reflect on the role of archives and archivists.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Mario Aldo Toscanohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15080The analysis of cartographic resources in the FRBR and IFLA LRM conceptual models: a survey of the studies2022-06-22T23:08:06+02:00Laura Manzonilaura.manzoni@unifi.it<p>Since the publication of the Functional Requirementes for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) in 1998, the world’s leading experts on cataloguing cartographic resources have questioned the possibilities of applying the conceptual model to cartography. They tried to understand how cartographic resources could be treated in the context of an entity-relationship model, focusing on the possibilities of applying Group 1 entities and FRBR’s relations to cartography. The debate that followed led to the establishment of conflicting positions. Many of the criticisms made to FRBR also apply to IFLA Library Reference Model (IFLA LRM), the new conceptual model, published in 2017. While showing some improvements it seems to fit forcibly into the description of cartographic resources.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Laura Manzonihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15079Search behavior on University of Bologna discovery tool: a quantitative and qualitative analysis2022-06-22T22:57:48+02:00Maura Quaquarellim.quaquarelli@mail.com<p>This article has the purpose to identify the most common search techniques of patrons in a discovery tool and if the discovery is able to provide relevant answers to the queries. This study reports on the use of EBSCO Discovery Service of Bologna University, called AlmaStart. The analyzed data refers to 8 months, from January to April 2020 and from January to April 2021. This period allowed to verify if search behavior changed over time and if the closure of the libraries due to coronavirus lockdown affected it. The data, collected by Google Analytics, are analyzed through the use of the software Microsoft Excel and Atlas.ti, a tool for the qualitative analysis and categorization of textual data. The quantitative analysis refers to all collected data, the qualitative analysis refers to 4 specific days and to all search queries that did not conduct to any results in the discovery. The qualitative analysis allowed to verify if patrons mostly conduct searches about a theme, or if they use the discovery to search known-items in order to access or to localize them. Moreover, it was possible to identify some patron’s expectations about search queries that discovery is not able to satisfy and some ideas to improve it. The result reveals that during the library closure the use of the discovery tool increased a lot, but the search behaviour remained basically the same as in the other months. Patrons use the discovery mostly to search known-item in order to reach the full text of the documents. Finally, some elements to improve the discovery tool functionality were identified.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Maura Quaquarellihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15078Authority file of personal names in SBN and Alphabetica: problems and perspectives2022-06-22T22:42:17+02:00Carlo Bianchinicarlo.bianchini@unipv.itStefano Bargionibargioni@pusc.itCamillo Carlo Pellizzari di San Girolamocamillopellizzari@gmail.com<p>The article presents the results of the qualitative and quantitative analysis of SBN authority records for personal names, by the comparison of two datasets, the former based on data sent to VIAF in 2021 (PRE) and the latter on data taken from the SBN OPAC shortly after the publication of Alphabetica, the new ICCU portal (POST). The aim of the study was to establish whether the quality of the authority records actually corresponds to the requirements specified by SBN for the entries of level 90 and above. In addition, the study aimed to verify whether the system of production and publication of authority records, based on the authority levels of entries and of cataloguers, is still current or not, also with respect to the novelties introduced by Alphabetica. The analysis shows that a re-levant percentage of authority records (both in PRE and in POST) do not meet the requirements, that the choice of publication of records according to the levels of authority does not match to the standards and to the choices of other national bibliographic agencies, and that the innovations introduced in Alphabetica sug-gest a change of perspective in the organisation of SBN authority work.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Carlo Bianchini, Stefano Bargioni, Camillo Carlo Pellizzari di San Girolamohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15077Citing the internet with DOIs and shortened URLs? Better not2022-06-22T22:26:18+02:00Riccardo Ridiridi@unive.it<p>In bibliographic citations of online documents, URLs are increasingly replaced with shorter ones provided by services such as TinyURL and Bitly or with DOI codes. These alternative identifiers, although undoubtedly useful for other purposes and in other contexts, should however be used with great caution and parsimony in bibliographic references for numerous reasons, including: 1) the invisibility of the original URL, useful to the readers for the evaluation, for the orientation and for possible searches in the Internet archive; 2) the uncertainty about the actual longevity of alternative identifiers; 3) the slight increase in the time required to reach the document you want to consult and the greater probability that at least one of the sites involved is temporarily out of use or slowed down; 4) the greater immediacy of use, universality and granularity of the URL compared to the DOI; 5) the existence of misleading ‘paper DOIs’ which refer to documents not yet available online; 6) the possibility that DOIs are automatically converted into the URLs of unofficial versions of the corresponding documents; 7) the advertising that is actually given to private companies providing shortened URLs, subtracting it from more relevant and reliable sites and publications, as well as the risk of exposing readers to further advertisements managed by these companies; 8) the risk of shortened URLs being inhibited by postal systems and firewalls that suspect them of hiding sites considered dangerous. The article also provides some tips on how to cite preprints and how to ‘limit damage’ in the event that excessively long and complicated URLs are still replaced by shortened URLs.</p>2022-07-22T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Riccardo Ridihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15076The Laire <em> affair</em> and the Roman editions of the fifteenth century in the works exchanged between Tommaso Verani and Giovanni Battista Audiffredi2022-06-22T18:23:13+02:00Lucrezia Signorellolucrezia.signorello@uniroma1.it<p>The paper traces the events that led to the publication of the Catalogus historico-criticus Romanarum editionum saeculi XV – which the Dominican Giovanni Battista Audiffredi published in the context of the dispute with the French Francois-Xavier Laire and his essay on Roman typography – through the correspondence between the librarian of the Casanatense Library and the Augustinian Tommaso Verani. At the same time, the paper offers a picture of the erudite studies conducted by Verani and of the reorganizations he carried out in the archives and libraries of the Observant Congregation of Lombardy, activities that allowed him to come into contact with some of the greatest intellectuals of the Italian 18th century.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Lucrezia Signorellohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15075<em>Sicilia piangente su le rovine delle sue più belle città</em>: story and data from the printed <em> Reports</em> of the 1693 Val di Noto earthquake2022-06-22T18:10:00+02:00Francesca Aiellofrancesca_aiello@hotmail.it<p>The paper aims to analize printed reports describing the earthquake that destroyed many cities in eastern Sicily in January 1693.

Specifically, through a joint analysis of the relevant academic literature, the local socio-economic history, and the material provenances recorded within numerous copies, the essay intends to highlight to what degree and form commercial events such as regional fairs influenced the development and distribution of typographic products in Italy in the 1470s.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Natale Vacalebrehttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15072Italian codices in Eötvös Loránd University Library, Budapest2022-06-22T17:09:45+02:00Máté Biborkiszl.peter@btk.elte.huKatalin Némethkiszl.peter@btk.elte.huPéter Kiszlkiszl.peter@btk.elte.hu<p>Eötvös Loránd University Library, which celebrates its 460th birthday this year, is one of the oldest continually operating public libraries in Hungary. The historical nature of its collection is primarily due to its continuous centuries-long operation, which is extremely rare in East-Central Europe. Furthermore, other significant factors behind the growth of its collection were the abolition of monasteries ordered by Joseph II, and a few truly generous donations. Among the latter the donation of Sultan Abdul Hamid II (1877), which enriched the library’s collection with thirty-five codices, stands out. Most of these medieval manuscripts were taken to Istanbul as spoils of war during the Ottoman occupation of the Hungarian Kingdom in the 16-17th centuries. The majority of the codices “gifted back” by the Sultan in 1877 are of Italian origin, most of them being humanist manuscripts, and a dozen of them were part of the Bibliotheca Corvina, the famous collection of King Matthias I (1458-1490). They include four codices of the former collection of Francesco Sforza, the Duke of Milan (1450-1466). The vast majority of the forty-seven Italian medieval manuscripts of the University Library are in Latin; from among these, the autograph manuscript of Saint Bernardine of Siena is especially significant for Italians. The Dante Codex is the most famous of the four Italian-language codices but the others, a nautical handbook, an anthology of ethics, and a musicological work are also of interest. This study briefly presents each Italian medieval manuscript preserved in the Library of the Eötvös Loránd University, offering help for their further study by referring the readers to the most important secondary literature works discussing them, especially the ones written in languages of international circulation. The links to the digital versions of the discussed manuscripts available in the institutional repository of the library, namely EDIT are given, and, in case of the corvinas, the links to their description and digital copy in the Bibliotheca Corvina Virtualis operated by the Hungarian national library are included as well. Finally, the paper concludes by an excursus detailing what elements of the Italian book culture are includedinto the graduate curriculum of the programs offered by the Institute of Library and Information Science of Eötvös Loránd University. A subsidiary aim of the study is to encourage the intercultural research and professional relationships between Italian and Hungarian scholars of library and information science, which have already been boosted by the meetings between Italian and Hungarian librarians organized at the turn of the millennium.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Máté Bibor, Katalin Németh, Péter Kiszlhttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15071Alexandria for Alexander: for a dating of the Alexandrian project2022-06-22T16:33:17+02:00Luca Tiberiluca.tiberi@cnr.it<p>On the basis of Strabo’s and Athenaeus’ well known passages (Geograph., XIII, 1, 54, 5-9, Deipnosoph. I, 4, 22-33 and V, 53, 1-11) on the Aristoteles’ books, their arrival to Alexandria has to be considered as a turning point in the history of the famous egyptian library. This circumstance, together with Demetrius’ collaboration with the king Soter, makes probable that the library took an important step forward between 287 and 283 b.C. The hypothesis is sustained by the Soter’s will to honour his old friend Alexander and by Demetrius’ documented activity in the library, which must have taken place only under Soter’s reign.</p>2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Luca Tiberihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/15070Not information but understanding2022-06-22T16:17:49+02:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.it2022-07-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 Alfredo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14100Editorial.

The general objective is to recognize books as social devices in this environment. The specific objectives aim at: to approach them as source for transposition of the reality of the jail; to discourse on the potentialities and limits of its uses in periods of sanitaryrestrictions in the Espirito Santo; e to argue on the importance of the book for the convicts during the pandemic. The justification resides in its social coverage for the visibility of the book as social device and right of the convicts in regular periods of restrictions during the pandemic. It`s about a qualitative and exploratory research, with use of the procedures of bibliographical research, documentary of field. In the first stage it was carried through official survey of bibliographical materials (theses, dissertation, scientific articles) and documents (laws, recommendations, techinical guidelines) for the treatment and deepening in the subject and better knowledge of the universe of the research. For the field research, interview directed to the Sub-Manegement of Education in Prisons with the intention to collect data on uses of the libraries and services of book loans during the pandemic. The results indicate that, for the application of legal regulations, relatives to the uses of books in benefit of the convicts, is necessary the understanding of its potentialities as social device in different conjunctures. The conclusions guarantee the agreement of book-device must be pandemic in the prisional system, that is, must be spread in fast and wide scale, allowing the access to different knowledge in custody of institutions that control collection and subjects.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Adriana Isidório da Silva Zamite, Maira Cristina Grigoletohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14074Bibliography out of the wardrobe: what does Brazilian information science reveals about issues of gender and sexual dissidence?2021-12-17T06:34:56+01:00Bruno Almeida dos Santosbruno.bas18@gmail.comNathália Lima Romeirontromeiro91@gmail.com<p>Objective: Elaboration of a bibliographic repertoire on gender issues and sexual dissidences in Brazilian Information Science from 1972 to 2021. <br />Method: The research is qualitative, exploratory and bibliographical in nature, in which we surveyed and organized a bibliographic repertoire of scientific articles, scientific communications, theses, dissertations and books on gender issues and sexual dissidences in the field of Information Science. <br />Result: The results shows the construction of a bibliographic repertoire with a total of 128 bibliographic sources, with 107 representing articles and periodical communications, 18 theses and dissertations and 3 books. <br />Conclusion: We believe that studies like this are important to give visibility to gender issues and sexual dissent, which are so marginalized in our social environment.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Bruno Almeida dos Santos, Nathália Lima Romeirohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14073The Art of Bibliography in Brazil: analysis of production in some scientific journals (2014-2020)2021-12-17T06:25:05+01:00Giulia Crippagiulia.crippa2@unibo.itIeda Pelógia Martins Damianiedapm@usp.br<p>“The Art of Bibliography” is an international seminar that, since 2014, takes place every year. The papers presented in this seminar are, from 2015, published in journals with relevance in the area of Information Science. From these papers, the objective of this work is to study the theoretical conceptions and the concrete activities related to the domain of Bibliography in Brazil. The quali-quantitative study analyzes the production on the theme to evidence the evolution of the concept of bibliography present in the scientific productionthat relates Brazil to other countries, highlighting the conceptions and activities developed by researchers. Specifically, the research seeks to identify the elements that draw the domain, through the production on the theme “Bibliography”. In view of the above, this is a study of descriptive nature, since it analyzes the content of the articles, from categories of analysis and information raised in the scientific production considered. From the selected production on the theme, it was possible to verify that the theoretical epistemological, techno-methodological and sociopolitical dimensions are present, built as categories during the content analysis.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Giulia Crippa, Ieda Pelógia Martins Damianhttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14072«To bring light to the pious reader»: references to information sources and transmission of knowledge in the artistic recipe book by João Stooter (1729-1732)2021-12-17T06:15:14+01:00René Lommez Gomesrenelommez@ufmg.br<p>Born in Antwerp and living in Portugal, the diamond cutter João Stooter acquired some prominence in the 18th century when he produced an armory manual and an artistic recipe book. His works were intended to improve the quality of the products created by the Kingdom’s mechanical officers and artists, making them rival foreign products. Regarding his second work, an artistic how-to-do book entitled «Arte de Brilhantes Vernises», the author<br>found himself moved to write on a wide range of subjects – such as varnishes, paints, and glues – relating to the artisanal transformation of raw materials that the overseas trade dumped on the Portuguese market, such as wood from Brazil and Africa. At the dawn of Portuguese Illustration, Stooter gathered,<br>tested and corrected recipes for varnishes and other artistic compounds obtained from a wide range of information sources, above all in various genres of printed books. With the result of the experiments conducted in his studio, which aimed at testing, correcting and standardizing the preparations and techniques, he composed the first recipe book of its kind to be printed in Portuguese. The work was edited by the Verdussen house, in Antwerp, between<br>1729 and 1732. Several copies of it were later enhanced with handwritten notes by the author. In printed and manuscript texts – which were born from<br>his bibliographic gesture, when selecting, compiling and mediating previous records – the author developed a complex system of internal references to the contents of the book and to works taken as a source, which required the technical gesture of the artisan if added to the indicated reading path, so that a preparation could be carried out satisfactorily. Based on the proposition that the field of bibliography encompasses the history of production and uses of books, this study will demonstrate how the references defined this recipe book model, placing itself at the center of the transmission of artisanal knowledge advocated in the work.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 René Lommez Gomeshttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14071Searching for Conrad Gesner in the Brazilian tropics: the documentary presence of Gesner bibliographical works in heritage libraries2021-12-17T06:01:39+01:00Andre Vieira de Freitas Araujoarmarius.araujo@gmail.comDiná Marques Pereira Araújodina.ufmg@gmail.com<p>The paper offers a historical-bibliographical discussion of the copies of Bibliotheca Universalis (1545), Pandectae (1548) and Bibliotheca instituta et collecta (1574), by Conrad Gesner (1516-1565), present in two Brazilian heritage libraries: the Library of Saint Benedict’s Monastery of São Paulo (BMSBSP) and the National Library of Brazil (BN), in Rio de Janeiro. The contextualization and characterization of the copies are based on the following theoretical-methodological course: 1) presentation of the Gesnerian bibliographical studies in Brazil; 2) considerations on the presence of the Gesnerian editions in libraries; 3) historical comments on BMSBSP and BN; 4) historical notes and analysis of the copies of Bibliotheca Universalis (1545), Pandectae (1548) and Bibliotheca instituta et collecta (1574) safeguarded in BMSBSP and BN, highlighting their extrinsic and intrinsic aspects from their analytical bibliographical description. The copies of BMSBSP and BN have values that are expressed in two keys: 1) “universal” historical-cultural value, linked to the role of these works in bibliographical studies and in Gesnerian Studies; 2) “local” historical-cultural value, linked to the institutional context, modality and motivations of acquisition, preservation, mediation, use, control, circulation and appropriation of the copies. In the landscape of the two heritage libraries highlighted here, the Gesnerian universality - although it can be reviewed, relativized, and even tensioned in the context of the tropics - constitutes a geographical and conceptual space that includes not only the Old World, but also the New World. Indeed, the Gesnerian bibliographical works trace an intriguing and passionate historical-bibliographical thread between the 16th century polymath and the Bibliography of the Brazilian tropics.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Andre Vieira de Freitas Araujo, Diná Marques Pereira Araújohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14070Other books, other handwritings: indigenous reports2021-12-16T23:58:05+01:00Vinícios Souza de Menezesmenezes.vinicios@gmail.com<p>It approaches in an unconventional way other books and other spellings present in the indigenous ways of writing, materializing and narrating their stories. The concepts of book and spelling are interpreted broadly. Activating a diversity of indigenous reports and exposing, through different thoughts, other possibilities of imagining them. Accepting the assumption that there are no unwritten cultures and that formulations about ‘illiterate societies’ are colonizing effects of an ethnocentric thought, the crossing proposed by this text is to attend, as far as possible, these other bibliographies crossed out and censored by the traditional book and by the universal spelling of Western peoples as primitive expressions. Decolonizing our bibliographic thinking is the horizon targeted by this research. Listening to the stories of the indigenous people is an endbeggining, devouring the end for the beginning. The end of the book is the cessation of its absolute, finished and universal condition. The end of the unique and western book is the beginning of the scriptural opening and its material plasticities. The strength of the concept of the book expressed in the semiophagy of the bookOunce, proposed from a differOunce (différonce), is a way of dreaming in the Amerindian way a new and, simultaneously, an old beginning: the open possibility of the book once more as a sign of freedom of self-determination from the multiple meanings of different peoples. This text brings a report of the cultivated jungle of Abya Yala – the Living Earth. Perhaps this is an endbeggining to the disconcerting otherness of the bibliographic messages that we insist on forgetting.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Vinícios Souza de Menezeshttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14069A woman among men: Christine de Pizan's bibliographical gesture in <em>The City of Dames</em>2021-12-16T23:38:29+01:00Mell Sicilianomellsiciliano@gmail.comFernanda Vallefvallegalvao@gmail.comAmanda Salomãoamandachrisalomao@msn.com<p>This paper is a theoretical and exploratory research on the concepts of bibliography and bibliographic gesture, in relation to the book The Book of the City of Ladies, by Christine de Pizan (1363-1431 AD). In this work, the Italian author based in France, disputes the widely revered and referencedpatriarchal bibliography, by selecting 150 female personalities who stood out in various fields of knowledge, by means of a logical argument as well as a memorial to female reputation. The discussion hereby presented is supported by the literature review performed by Eduardo Alentejo (2015) - to whom bibliography is understood both as a material and intellectual product, under the notion of repertoire, lists or subject descriptions, always guided by general policies and individual choices of bibliographers, thus related to selection, and clipping – and by the notion of bibliographic gesture, as defined by Giulia Crippa (2015, 2016). Other authors like André Araújo (2015), Viviane Couzinet and Patrick Fraysse (2019) are useful to better understand the concept of bibliography; and, to contextualize Christine de Pizan in her time, Rosalind Brown-Grant (1999), Patrizia Caraffi (2003, 2004), Diana Arauz Mercado (2005), Tracy Adams Rechtschaffen (2010), Ana Rieger Schmidt (2020a, 2020b) and Jacques Le Goff (2006). The Book of the City of Ladies was read in two versions: one translated to English (1999) and other to Portuguese (2012), both developed from the original text in Old French. The results show that, given the different existing notions of bibliography and the historical limitations imposed on women, the efforts undertaken by Pizan in this book, although apparently lacking the theoretical-conceptual delimitation of what is understood as bibliography nowadays, result in a remarkable repertoire of references, that deserve to be observed through the lens of bibliography and Knowledge Organization and considered by the field as a bibliographic gesture.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Mell Siciliano, Fernanda Valle, Amanda Salomãohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14068A Brazilian bibliographical policy? The historical and political course of the national bibliography in Brazil2021-12-16T23:09:46+01:00Carlos Henrique Juvênciocarloshjuv@gmail.com<p>It aims to understand the initiatives for the construction of Brazilian national bibliographies under the prism of political bias. From the historical context, we will seek to show how much the national bibliography is linked to the rise and strengthening of government and information regimes. It covers four periods of Brazilian history - Proclamation of the Republic (1889), Vargas Era (1930-1945), military dictatorship (1964-1985) and democratic reopening (1985-) - observing how they reverberate in distinct bibliographic policies that fostered accelerated construction or erasure of the Brazilian national bibliography, as well as the institutions involved in its construction. Uses as theoretical framework Fonseca (1972), Maeda (2016) and Juvêncio (2016) seeking to delimit the history and trajectory of the construction of national bibliographies in Brazil, in addition to González de Gómez (2002, 2012, 2015) and Braman (2004) to elucidate what an information regime is. As a method, it uses a bibliographic-documental research, based on primary sources on the subject. It concludes that the efforts undertaken in the construction of bibliographies over the last 100 years in Brazil derive from the action of different informational regimes. Whether with the emergence or decline of institutions, as well as the greater or lesser attention given to the elaboration of the repository of national intellectual production, he realizes that there is a bibliographic political gesture, even if undeclared, that populates the efforts to elaborate a national bibliography.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Carlos Henrique Juvênciohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14067Bibliographical principles in Brazilian degree courses in Library Sciences: an analysis of the epistemological curricular specificity2021-12-16T22:52:42+01:00Cristina Dotta Ortegaortega@eci.ufmg.br<p>The field of documentary mediation actions in a bibliographic approach deals with referencing and disseminating knowledge through systems, products and services that promote the qualified use of information by an audience, aiming at its appropriation. The Bibliography course presents concepts and operations that form the fundamental basis of the described field. These fundamental bibliographic aspects – or bibliographic principles – constitute the<br>structuring axis of curricular proposals aimed at professional formation and research. Despite the fact that bibliographic principles constitute the structuring axis of Librarianship courses, we question whether these principles are currently sufficient and properly present in the curricular proposals of these courses in Brazil. Thus, the objective of the research is to characterize the presence of bibliographic principles in Brazilian Librarianship education, through the analysis of undergraduate programs, verifying whether these programs provide epistemological specificity concerning the social function of information appropriation by an audience. Initially, a scheme of bibliographic principles and the processes and products that derive from them is presented, which allows to guide and underpin the study; then, an empirical analysis is carried out with the proposition of categories, selection of undergraduate Librarianship coursesand teaching programs, analysis and discussion. The analysis of curricular proposals indicates that bibliographic principles were not abandoned, but there was a partial erasure, often leading to a loss of focus and specificity. It is necessary to invest in curricular proposals whose epistemological specificity is easily identified and aimed at educating for the social function of the field that deals with documentary mediation actions in a bibliographical approach.<br><br></p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Cristina Dotta Ortegahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14066Bibliography and memory: Filippo Gesualdo's Eighteenth Lecture and Conrad Gesner's Pandectae2021-12-16T22:35:53+01:00Diego Baldidiego.baldi@cnr.it<p>In Filippo Gesualdo’s work on mnemonics titled Plutosofia, which appeared in 1592, there is a chapter dedicated to the Library of Memory. In this chapter Gesualdo gives an explanation about the techniques to build up a mnemonic library. According to Gesualdo’s advice, it is possible to organize the mind just like a library, where every book could find its own proper place. The library structure would be organized by some loci, as a building, a space, a room and so on. The analysis of this kind of ordering system reveals some significant analogies with the bibliographic system used by Conrad Gesner to organize his Pandectae. A comparison between the two works highlights how both of the systems could lead to draw a mental map of the human knowledge and it shed a light on the genesis of the Gesner’s Pandectae.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Diego Baldihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14056From bibliography to book history... and vice versa!

The unpublished correspondence accompanying these official documents between the Minister of Public Education Michele Coppino, Desiderio Chilovi and Domenico Gnoli is examined, in order to shed light on the complex events that led to perennial postponements of the inauguration of the new course up to to arrive at an inevitable and sad ending: its ‘failure’ to start.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Rosa Parlavecchiahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14052Bibliography, female noun: Jules Gay and Desirée Veret2021-12-16T11:37:25+01:00Lorenzo Baldacchinilorenzo.baldacchini@unibo.it<p>In 1861 an important bibliography dedicated to love, women and marriage was published in Paris, under the pseudonym M. le C. d’I***. The author (and publisher) was Jules Gay. He was 54 years old and had had both important political and editorial experiences. In particular, with the agreement with socialism and the ideas of Robert Owen, he propagated the principles of social and sexual equality. The influence exerted on him and his numerous publications on women by his wife Désirée Veret, a proletarian seamstress, feminist militant, but also a woman with passionate loves, was very profound. But we must not think of her as some kind of Gay muse. Rather, she was the intermediary of a special relationship between bibliography and history.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Lorenzo Baldacchinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14051Proposal for a new methodological approach to the study of 20th century Bibliography2021-12-16T11:06:32+01:00Carlo Bianchinicarlo.bianchini@unipv.itFiammetta Sabbafiammetta.sabba@unibo.itLucia Sardolucia.sardo@unibo.it<p>The constant technological revolution that we have been witnessing for decades has affected all forms of communication and, consequently, has also involved the ‘recorded communication’ that pertains to bibliographic thought and action. Since the end of the nineteenth century and especially since the first decades of the twentieth century, this has led to a process of change in the structure of all scientific disciplines, including Bibliography. This process has had two fundamental consequences for bibliography: on the one hand, it has meant that bibliography as a meta-discipline is endowed with new instruments of investigation; on the other, it changed the disciplinary scope of bibliography itself, to the point where it has found itself specialised in a number of other derived disciplines. The need to clarify what happened is particularly felt in Italy, where even in the last century the documentary and bibliographical disciplines had an important development and debate, but it is also widely felt in the rest of the European context and beyond, as demonstrated by recent occasions of international scientific and conference comparison and as highlighted by some of the recent Italian studies of Bibliography and Information Sciences. In this contribution we discuss a methodological hypothesis to investigate the problem. In particular, it is argued that the solution to the problem is to be searched in a new methodological approach that includes both a qualitative survey of the main sources of the discipline in the Italian context – i.e., the traditional survey method of Bibliography – and a quantitative investigation necessarily conducted with the decisive help of the application of Linked Data technology to the most recent production of the discipline. The twofold approach would allow to give a concrete start to this disciplinary arrangement, reconstructing the most recent process of metamorphosis, identifying the junctions and the forms (methodologies, tools, and objectives) both in diachronic and synchronic terms.</p>2021-12-21T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2021 Carlo Bianchini, Fiammetta Sabba, Lucia Sardohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/14050Bibliography and the information society2021-12-16T10:58:05+01:00Andrea Capaccioniandrea.capaccioni@unipg.it<p>The paper offers reflection on the contribution that bibliography can offer to the information society.

At the same time, he was an active member of the Republic of Arabic Letters, the circle of European scholars devoted to acquiring and disseminating knowledge of the Orient in early modern Europe. The Austrian National Library holds two groups of texts that can help us understand the complexity of his intellectual endeavours: the corpus of manuscript letters describing his work as an Orientalist and as a librarian, and the collection of Oriental manuscripts built up by Tengnagel. The two sources must be studied together, because each sheds light on the other. Only by interlinking them can we attempt to answer the crucial questions: how and why, in early 17th-century Vienna, did one become an Orientalist? What were the ‘tools of the trade’? This paper is a survey of this material, based upon the interdisciplinary project The Oriental Outpost of the Republic of Letters. Sebastian Tengnagel (d. 1636), the Imperial Library in Vienna, and Knowledge of the Orient carried out at the University of Vienna at the Department of Near East Studies and the Institute for Austrian Historical Research. Through specific case studies it shows how it is possible to reconstruct both the provenance and trajectories of certain books, and the stories of those who carried or studied them.</p>2021-07-02T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Hülya Çelik - Chiara Petrolinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13080My library2021-06-16T11:00:48+02:00Luciano Canforaluciano.canfora@uniba.it2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Luciano Canforahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13079Bibliography of the Italian authors2021-06-16T10:51:37+02:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.it<p>The paper proposes, also as support of the National Library Service, the creation of a national repertoire that chronologically indexes the editorial production of the Italian authors, both handwritten and printed.

The speeches show the results of research that has seen the examination of library, archival, artistic and musicological sources and experiences that are so different from each other but which, in a harmonious and interconnected way, give back the image of a social and cultural phenomenon based on the exchange and contamination of ideas.

Between “cataloging and metadating” the descriptive elements resist. A bibliographic record of a paper catalog consists of a metadata set, just as the elements represented in an archival search tool can be called metadata. For real innovation, the archival inventory must be transformed into an information system, almost a search engine, characterized by specific strategies and filters. The inventory will be in the archive and no longer of the archive even if the contextual elements as a whole must never fail. Information constitutes the essential heritage of any society: the public, civil and political perception of archives and libraries has the task of putting themselves at the service of enlarged communities and processes on a very large range.</p>2021-07-13T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Federico Valacchihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13076Digital Library, or the evolution of the library: the Veneranda Biblioteca Ambrosiana and its new open access Digital Library dedicated to manuscripts2021-06-16T10:05:20+02:00Fabio Cusimanofcusimano@ambrosiana.it<p>The Digital Library – used here to connote a general category – aims to innovate the range of services offered to the public by ‘analogue libraries’ to a varied group of users. These services cross the multifaceted cases of public reading libraries (and a large and generalist pool of users), of university libraries (and an equally large pool of users made up of students, undergraduates, faculty, and researchers), and also extend to the world of conservation libraries, which attract a specialized niche audience, very often of international origin. The digitization of precious, ancient, books – both manuscript and printed – represents a great and complex challenge from many points of view (conceptual, design, implementation, logistics, economic, personnel management, etc.), but also the most intuitive way we have now to expand the services offered to users in digital form. In the (recent) past, many digital library initiatives have been carried out in this sense by individual library institutions, as well as by individual private programs or government projects, with variable results in terms of objectives actually achieved, sustainable permanence online, and their ability to effectively counteract the so-called ‘digital obsolescence’ by updating the entire technological infrastructure of the project itself, as well as the individual digital contents, to guarantee their survival. Nowadays, web- based technologies have evolved, increased, and standardized to such an extent that a new approach is possible for digital libraries in terms of usability, visualization, and multi-platform replication of digital content.</p>2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Fabio Cusimanohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13075The cultural property as the soul of the world2021-06-16T09:35:35+02:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.it<p>Examination and discussion of the specific nature of the Cultural property, in relation to their misterious origin and their current mental function, both in connection with the development of a specific stage of civilization and the needs of the modern man.</p>2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Alfredo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13074The problem of digital legacy in the transmission of personal archives and libraries2021-06-16T09:29:09+02:00Stefano Allegrezzastefano.allegrezza@unibo.it<p>The digital revolution that for at least a couple of decades has radically transformed every sector of society has not neglected to make profound changes also in the personal life of each one – which is becoming more and more ‘digital’ – and in the production and use of documents. Through personal computers, tablets and smartphones, we draw up documents, take notes and personal notes, write literary texts, develop studies and projects, take photographs, read books, interact on social networks, etc. In this way, many documents are created in digital format and many magazines and books are purchased and read in digital format as well. As a consequence, the digital part in personal archives is increasing more and more (and these are turning into “digital personal archives”); in the same way, personal libraries increasingly consist of digital books and magazines and therefore they are becoming ‘personal digital libraries’ too. In many cases digital material is stored on virtual spaces made available by cloud service providers and become accessible only to those who know (or have) the necessary credentials. But faced with this transformation, many people begin to ask themselves: what will happen to these personal digital fonds after the death of the producers or owners? Will the heirs be able to accommodate this legacy? To answer these questions, we need to face the problem of the transmission of the digital legacy, fully understanding the implications that derive from having entrusted personal fonds to systems often protected by inscrutable access mechanisms and trying to identify the solutions that could allow them to secure their future, avoiding falling into that ‘digital dark age’ that more than someone has already begun to foreshadow.</p>2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Stefano Allegrezzahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13073Orsa Maggiore, editor of Radclyffe Hall2021-06-16T09:17:35+02:00Valentina Sonzinivalentinasonzini@yahoo.it<p>In 1946, the Edizioni dell’Orsa maggiore started to publish all the Radlyffe Hall’s books.

With intuition and audacity, he was the first to contribute to the notoriety of authors destined to impose themselves on the cultural<br>scene for their innovative qualities, and with refined aesthetic taste he published volumes of typographical elegance and sometimes also of unconventional form. As a true “friend of books”, as he liked to define himself, he was also the storyteller of amusing bibliographical stories. A multifaceted figure who always remained shrouded in mystery, due to his shy and modest nature, his brief professional career with dramatic results, and the probable loss of<br>his personal and work papers. In an attempt to fill the biographical gap, this contribution presents the results of archival research that, for the first time,<br>digs into Francesco Lumachi’s family roots and his schooling, a background from which unpublished elements emerge and, at the same time, a range of questions susceptible to further investigation, together with personality traits that find points of contact in editorial and existential choices, such as inconsistencies and fascinations that can be justified by the historical context of reference. The work also avails itself of an iconographic collection, also partly unpublished, as evidence and proof of the topics dealt with.</p>2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Giovanna Grifonihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13070«What began as a hobby became a consuming quest»: American bibliophile William Lawrence Clements and his collection of incunabula2021-06-16T08:38:38+02:00Debora M.

During the golden age of American book collecting, William Clements managed to set up an outstanding book collection<br>specialized in Americana, never seen before in the Midwest of the United States. Through the study of the William L.

Sold through auctions and individual merchants, these incunabula belonged to prestigious collections and still retain fundamental provenances that allow the reconstruction of their journey. The study of the itinerary of the incunabula throughout the centuries, from Europe to America, is reconstructed by analyzing elements such as ex libris, inscriptions, bindings, stamps, reading marks, and manuscript notes.</p>2021-07-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Debora M.

First investigations and census of annotated books2021-06-16T07:51:18+02:00Lorenzo Mancinilorenzo.mancini172@gmail.com<p>The article presents the first results of a research about the library of the Jesuit Cardinal Roberto Bellarmino (1542-1621). The starting point are some unpublished works dedicated to this topic compiled by two Jesuit scholars in the first half of ‘ 900: François Xavier Le Bachelet and Sebastian Tromp. In particular, Tromp’s work had concerned the identification of the editions cited in the library inventory, without however proceeding with the identification of the items actually belonging to the cardinal, today mainly preserved at the National Central Library of Rome and the Historical Archive of the Pontifical Gregorian University. In addition to providing a first analysis of the composition of the Bellarminian collection, the article examines the events related to<br>its conservation at the Roman College, to which Bellarmino donated it after his death and where on several occasions it was subject to spoliations – even if today it is difficult to evaluate their extent. These episodes testify to the problematic intellectual legacy left by Bellarmino and how it influenced not only<br>his long process of canonization (which lasted three centuries) but also the conservation of his books. In the appendix, the inventory of the library is published for the first time, as well as a catalog of 122 books with the provenance note of the Bellarmine’s private collection and, in several cases, containing his autograph annotations.</p>2021-10-19T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2021 Lorenzo Mancinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/13067A new attribution to the Maestro dei Putti: an illuminated book of the <em> Attic Nights </em> by Aulo Gellio (Venice, Nicolas Jenson, 1472)2021-06-15T23:46:52+02:00Simona Inserrasimona.inserra@gmail.com<p>The paper presents the discoveries about a Venetian incunable studied during the cataloguing activities of incunables at the Regional Library in Catania (2018-2021).

Users’ behaviour studies relevance shows a constantly increasing trend. Users’ behaviour is the research focus both in libraries and information sciences and in cataloguing. User studies in LIS were developed along four trends: user studies, information behaviour, information practice and information experience (Gonzales-Teruel 2018). With FRBR Report in 1998 and its four user tasks definition, a major shift toward users’ centrality came in cataloguing too. Relevance of user tasks is also underlined by the Statement of International Cataloguing Principles (ICP). It confirms FRBR four functions and adds a new one: to navigate. The focus of this research is the effective interaction of users with the OPAC at the Biblioteca Civica "Vincenzo Joppi”, Udine, Italy, with the aim of assessing both efficacy and efficiency of interactions, from the point of view both of the user and of the OPAC.</p> <p><em>Method</em>: This paper draws on an original research, as data about a simple random sample of 36 readers were collected by means both of a survey by a questionnaire before and after the interactions and by OPAC transactions screen recordings. Data were collected in Udine public library, Biblioteca “Vincenzo Joppi”, Udine, Italy, between August and October 2017. Quantitative and qualitative data analyses were conducted on collected data about 130 searches (a process that ends with a positive or negative result) and 200 interactions (each of the search attempts).</p> <p><em>Results and Discussion</em>: The contrast between use frequency and reader’s proficiency level shows that the more frequent the use, the higher the confidence level felt by reader. On the contrast, confidence level is not related to educational background. Nearly half of the interviewed (49%) search in the catalogue to fulfil personal information needs; any other information needs (teacher suggestions, friends’ advices, internet etc.) are less important. In nearly half of the interactions, the search field used is title; instead, percentage of searches by subject, by author’s surname or by author’s name and surname are all just slightly over 10%. Furthermore, data about search field support data about the two broad types of questions: 60% are known item searches, and just 40% are exploratory searches. The most preferred search approach is Google-like search (36%); advanced search (30%) is relevant, while basic search (12%) is less important. However, the most successful results are obtained by advanced search (67%), followed by basic search (56%) and google-like search (53%). An interesting difference emerges from the contrast between data collected from questionnaires and from direct observations of readers’ interactions with the OPAC: readers express approval or disapproval based on the final results of their overall research and not on single interactions, and take for granted that to achieve results one or more attempts could be needed. Final success depends mostly upon the kind of users’ starting question: known item searches are more successful than exploratory searches (60% versus 43%). Data As a result, data confirm that to perform exploratory searches readers need to be supported by a higher level of reference service. Data show that reasons for failure in searches rely on readers’ behaviour (56%) more than on library services (24%). For this reason, readers’ interactions with the OPAC could be improved by promoting information literacy for the readers.</p>2021-01-18T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Carlo Bianchinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11995About the <em>«Bibliotecarj»</em> of Giornale de’ letterati d’Italia2020-12-18T10:11:03+01:00Andrea Moroniandrea.moroni4@unibo.it<p>Created as a tool for the revitalization and renewal of Italian culture in the eighteenth century, the Giornale de’ letterati d’Italia represents one of the most mature and significant experiences of erudite Italian journalism. The magazine, in volume XXV, presents an accurate system of indexes, among which stands out the systematic one, articulated in 16 classes. The essay, after<br>an introduction concerning the most relevant structural, content and bibliographical characters of the Journal, proposes an analysis of the contributions classified under Bibliotecarj, with regard to tomes I-XXIV. The aim is twofold: on the one hand, to illustrate the nature and typology of the contents highlighted; on the other, to reconstruct the bibliographical-library orientations and trends associated with the journal and the cultural elites it represents. In conclusion, we will provide three indexes: the first one, articulated in 8 sections corresponding to the different configurations with which the literary evidence found during the research has been categorized; the second will concern the published and unpublished works found; to conclude the index of names.</p>2020-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Andrea Moronihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11992Giovanni Parè, bookseller and publisher in the second half seventeenth-century Venice2020-12-18T07:11:24+01:00Francesca Neporifrancescanepori@yahoo.it<p>The discovery of Giovanni Parè’s publishing and bookstore catalogues, a Venetian printer and bookseller at the end of the Seventeenth century, is an opportunity to reconstruct his activity as a book dealer and the close relationship he had had with Giovanni Palazzi, historian, man of letters, engraver.

This Egyptomania, which extends also to the seventeenth and the subsequent centuries, is well documented in early printed books and focuses on two symbolic objects: the Late Roman treatise on hieroglyphs Hieroglyphica by Horapollo and the Tablet of Isis (Mensa Isiaca), a late imperial age pseudo-Goddess altar. This work outlines the editorial adventures of those publications illustrating and popularizing a textual and graphical corpus that well represents the baroque intellectual imaginary about Ancient Egypt, particularly focusing on antiques collections and editorial activities of a close scholars network in Bologna in the XVII century.</p>2020-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Antonella Brunellihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11990Ancient book heritage and religious libraries. The case of Sardinia2020-12-18T05:31:10+01:00Giovanna Granataggranata@unica.it<p>The essay studies the presence of the ancient book heritage in the libraries of Sardinia where, apart from the case of the two University Libraries of Cagliari and Sassari, the most important institutions for the presence of ancient collections are the religious libraries. The relevance of religious libraries for library historiography is one of the topics of the disciplinary debate on which, starting from the specificity of the Sardinian reality, it is possible to develop some reflections. The essay underlines the need to also historically address the study of religious collections in relation to the notion of system. The individual realities, often of modest size and strongly rooted at the territorial level, should be understood as local articulations of a complex library organization, not surprisingly based on centrally defined norms, at the ecclesial or religious order level. On this basis, the case of the Capuchin Library of Cagliari is investigated, one of the most important in Sardinia for the number of ancient volumes, seen in the dialectical relationship between local microcirculation phenomena and adherence to the cultural paradigms of the Order.</p>2020-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Giovanna Granatahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11987New discoveries about the <em>Specchio di Illuminazione</em> by Beata Illuminata Bembo2020-12-17T15:56:57+01:00Riccardo Panericcardo.pane3@unibo.it<p>The discovery of some fifteenth-century manuscripts of the Specchio di Illuminazione of Beata Bembo in the so-called “Archivio della Beata Caterina”, kept in the Archbishop’s General Archive of Bologna, has opened up new and completely unexpected perspectives on the hagiography of St. Catherine of Vigri, revealing a multiform and complex evolution of this work. Two new editions have emerged, different from the one known so far: one shorter and widely epitomized, the second longer, with significant inserts, concentrated mainly in chapters VI-IX. Based on some significant clues, the author hypothesizes that this drafting chronologically precedes that of the so-called “autograph” and that it has been the subject of a series of second thoughts and complaints by the author herself or her circle. Some 16th century codices have also emerged, witnesses of the drafting known so far, but not without interest. Very recent paleographic studies had questioned the real autography of the edited manuscript. A first examination of the new acquisitions seems to confirm that they do not derive from the “autograph”, presenting several lessons and disjunctive errors.</p>2020-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Riccardo Panehttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11818The library of Alexandria and the fire that did not destroy it.

The increasing knowledge of the classical texts improves gradually the historical reconstruction of the event and poses new questions. Some variae lectiones from greek and roman authors are also discussed in order to draw more accurate conclusions. Particularly is examined the probable source of the Isidorus’ strange number (70.000) in Or. VI, 3, 5, concerning the amount of books destroyed by the fire.</p>2021-02-01T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Luca Tiberihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11817The new column <em>Voci di biblioteche viventi</em>2020-11-24T09:57:40+01:00Fiammetta Sabbafiammetta.sabba@unibo.it2020-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2020 Fiammetta Sabbahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11163Joachim Johann Mader's <em>De scriptis et bibliothecis antediluvianis</em>2020-06-24T15:41:15+02:00Diego Baldidiego.baldi@cnr.itJoachim Johann Mader's De scriptis et bibliothecis antediluvianis appeared in 1666 as the praefatio of the De bibliothecis atque archivis virorum clarissimorum libelli, the first anthology of treatises on the history of libraries.

This paper aims to discover these intentions through the study of a participatory cultural program organized by the Bibliothèque municipale of Lyon between November 2016 and March 2017. The programmatic documents consulted, the interviews conducted with the librarians and the observation of participatory activities allow to put in place highlights three reasons that define the roles that the public library wishes to play today in French society: the 'convivialité' library, the 'encapacitation' library and the'engagement' library.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Raphaëlle Batshttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11040«In scrineis» of Monna Caterina: The Books of Stefano di Nello Fatinelli (1419)2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Elisabetta Guerrierielisabetta.guerrieri@unifi.it<p>In the unpublished inventory of «bona et iura», which belonged to Stefano Fatinelli (d. 1418), a Lucchese merchant of high lineage, are recorded more than sixty codes which were kept «in scrineis domine Caterine», that is Caterina Martini, widow of the late Stefano. This instrumentum is kept in a notarial protocol of the Lucca State Archive; its discovery allowed to conduct various researches, based on unpublished materials, the results of which are presented here. The essay is divided into three paragraphs. The first one outlines Fatinelli’s profile, through the analysis of his will and the use of other sources, including a manuscript bearer of the life of Saint Zita (d. 1278), the humble servant who worked for the powerful Fatinelli family. The second paragraph is dedicated to the illustration of the inventory and its contextualization: indeed, it was drawn up following a petition, requested by a relative of the late Stefano to the Vicar of the Podestà of Lucca, in order to protect the infant heir to a considerable patrimony. The last paragraph is reserved for books: they are almost camouflaged in the inventory, which is composed by a long theory of land, buildings, household linen, precious fabrics, various furnishings, lists of debtors, etc. belonged to the deceased one. The critical edition of the books inventory items is preceded by some reflections thanks to which the library’s “cultural gradient” is identified. The short list is evidence of a library collection now lost, of which two manuscripts are still recognised. Finally, the appendix contains Stefano Fatinelli’s will and the aforementioned petition. This essay gives the image of one of the private libraries that, starting from the XIVth Century, acquired importance in Lucca. Additionally, it helps to outline the overall picture of the circulation of books and cultural interests within and beyond the city walls in the early fifteenth century.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Elisabetta Guerrierihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11034Notes and reflections around <em>Il libro, il popolo, il territorio, da una indagine socio-statistica: memoria storica di biblioteche</em>2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Rosa Marisa Borraccinirosa.borraccini@unimc.it<p>Pivoting up the socio-statistical survey carried out in 1975 by the Department of Cultural Activities and the Municipal Library of Faenza, returned by the report <em>Il libro, il popolo e il territorio: biblioteche e servizi culturali a Faenza</em>, introduced in the recent re-edition by the protagonists of the time, the contribution traces and discusses for synthetic lines and problems the transformations that have occurred forty-five years later in the idea, identity, function and role of the Italian public library of the third millennium.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Rosa Marisa Borraccinihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11033The <em>Abteilung für Sondersammlungen</em> of the Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Tirol in Innsbruck: a brief introduction on history, status quaestionis and ongoing projects2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Claudia SojerClaudia.Sojer@uibk.ac.at<p>This article outlines the history of the Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Tirol (University and Provincial Library of Tirol at Innsbruck, ULB Tirol) in Innsbruck from the initial idea for its establishment arising in 1731 through its actual foundation in 1745, as well as its connection, shaped by various interactions, with the Leopold-Franzens-University in Innsbruck founded in 1669. The text also provides general information on the modern-day ULB Tirol, including data on its general tasks and mission, its holdings and numbers of users, and the individual departments of the library. The main focus of the article lies on the Department of Special Collections and its manuscript holdings, however. It offers an overview of the cataloguing projects conducted over the past fifty years and the status quo of those projects, as well as discussing their boundaries and the possibilities they have opened up. Finally, three specific projects are presented that are either currently being implemented or will be undertaken in the coming years and will substantially expand existing knowledge on the department’s manuscript assets. A bibliography lists all modern manuscript catalogs published between 1987 and 2017 as well as the essential literature on the history of the library’s holdings from 1874 to 2019.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Claudia Claudia Sojerhttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11032«At the risk of entering into minute and very uninteresting particulars...»: the dispute between Antonio Panizzi and Nicholas Harris Nicolas2020-06-28T11:39:55+02:00Lucia Sardosardo.lucia@gmail.com<p>The paper analyzes the dispute between Panizzi and Nicolas regarding the innovations proposed by the Italian librarian at the British Museum library.

However, from the Enlightenment period and especially after the French Revolution, libraries become a factor of not only individual, but also collective and social education and elevation. In 1837, Louis Aimé Martin – conservator of the library of Saint Geneviève in Paris – published the essay Plan d’une bibliotheque universelle, where the library is described as a national educational enterprise whose aim is to bring together within the same<br />principles all classes of society. The essay cites the works of the most notable authors of all disciplines, divided by nations for the literary sphere.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Alfredo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11030Archives in the library: parallel worlds that meet?2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Annantonia Martoranoannantonia.martorano@unifi.it<p>The contribution, starting from the observation that archives and libraries, despite being different and parallel worlds, wants to analyze the difficult relationship between the two realities through a diachronic reconstruction, highlighting the investigations and reflections conducted in Italy over time, and still in progress today , in relation to the complexity and ambiguity of this relationship, due also to the presence of funds and archival documents in libraries, and of documents and literary funds in the archives. The crux of ideal<br />and practical relationships, therefore existing or desirable, between archives and libraries hinges both on normative and managerial aspects, but certainly also conceptual, and therefore it is as complex as it is urgent to try to dissolve it, proposing the meeting of these two worlds parallel thanks to the help of digital technologies and integrated platforms, in order to make the documentary heritage they contain accessible to an increasingly wider audience.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Annantonia Martoranohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11027The "libraria" of the Capuchin friars of Sanremo and Francesco Corradi's donation2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Luca Tosineditos@libero.it<p>The essay starts from the will with which the physician Francesco Corradi, born in Sanremo and died in Genoa in 1865, disposed of his own legacy for various charitable purposes including the creation in his hometown of a public library. Until then, this institute was non-existent in the face of the presence of book collections belonging to religious orders, including Jesuits and Capuchins: the latter’s own books, acquired following the laws of suppression of the ecclesiastical bodies of 1866 and 1867, constituted the first core of the Corradi Library along with the volumes belonging to the doctor himself. The study therefore through the examination of the notes of possession tries to reconstruct the origin and organization of the friars’ collection, then through the analysis of the documentation produced in the meetings of the Municipal Council of Sanremo examines the formative process of the current Civic Library.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Luca Tosinhttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11026The Arezzo-printed edition of Lodovico Antonio Muratori’s works (1767-1780)2020-06-24T15:41:13+02:00Riccardo Nerinerissimo8@gmail.com<p>Published in 36 volumes between 1767 and 1780, the edition of Lodovico Antonio Muratori’s works is the main product of Arezzo’s ancient typography. Based on original documents owned by Episcopal Seminary of Arezzo, the essay shows the leading actors and the story of the project. The bishop Jacopo Gaetano Inghirami decides to renovate the Seminary’s plan of study through some updated teaching material. Thanks to a clever editorial policy, the expertise of the printer Michele Bellotti and a well-designed distribution network, the publication becomes a commercial product in great demand: in a few months it gets 288 buyers in Italy and abroad. After bishop Inghirami’s death in 1772, Episcopal Seminary of Arezzo and ‘Collegio Serristori’ of Castiglion Fiorentino<br />become the new editors. They buy from ‘Società Palatina di Milano’ the original matrices used for the illustrations of the very first editions of Muratori’s masterpieces: Rerum Italicarum Scriptores and Antiquitates Italicae Medii Aevi. In order to sell the unsold, the editors also swap lots of volumes with selected books by many italians booksellers’ sale catalogues. As many of these books are requested for school use, this practice shows the attention of Seminary’s education to scientific arguments and Enlightenment’s issues. Unfortunately, because of increasing economic problems and printer’s death, the editors decide to stop the publication to the detriment of original project.</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Riccardo Nerihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/11025An introduction to the incunabula collection of Biblioteca Diocesana in Aosta.

The author of this paper discusses pagination by Aldus Manutius (ca. 1450-1515) and his influence on the contemporary printers. Aldus printed 17 paginated books between 1499 and 1514, of which 13 books were printed in Greek (Table 1). His pagination can be divided into three types. Type A comprises books in which the page numbers were printed at the rightmost point of the headline on the recto page and at the leftmost point of the headline on the verso page. Type B comprises books in which the page numbers were printed in the middle of the headline on both the recto and verso pages. Type C comprises books in which the page numbers were printed at the rightmost point of the headline on both the recto and verso pages (Figure 1). Aldus’ preferred Type A and trialled Type B and C paginations when printing in octavo format. He tested all these types until 1508. Among these 17 paginated books, Aldus provided table of contents to nine books (Nos 2, 4, 6-8, and 12-15) and provided index to two books (Nos 1 and 6). But other seven books (Nos 3, 5, 9-11 and 16-17) were not provided any table of contents and index. It is certain that Aldus’s pagination was mainly intended to indicate the positions of the text by page numbers in a table of contents. His works influenced directly Lyon, Florence, and Basel. Johann Froben of Basel (ca. 1460-1527) printed many paginated books including Erasmus’s works, and Greek and Roman classics (Figure 3). Due to Froben’s efforts, pagination spread throughout the Rhine River Basin, Paris, and Antwerp until 1520, and then appeared at some leading centres of printing in East and South Germany, and England (Table 2).</p>2020-06-23T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2020 Koichi Yukishimahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10398The digitalization of the incunabula of Italy: the Central National Library of Rome from IGI to the Polonski project2020-01-27T11:13:38+01:00Andrea De Pasqualeandrea.depasquale@beniculturali.it<p>Since 1932 the Central National Library of Rome has developed a specific vocation for the census and study of incunabula in a national perspective. In fact, it is the owner of the direction of IGI - General Index of the Incunabula of Italy which, published from 1943 to 1981, constituted one of the most innovative and complete European projects for the re-cataloging of the bibliographic heritage of the century of the origins of the press. The Library was followed by the Italian contact person for the ISTC - Incunaula Short-Title catalog and Incipit projects of the British Library. Recently, in collaboration with the CERL and thanks to the contribution of the Polonski Foundation in New York, it has launched a new project for the digitalization of incunabula starting from the conspicuous collection of the S.

Today continuing professional development is vital to ensure that the sector’s human capital remains abreast of innovative work practices and technologies. Libraries are adapting their services to an ever evolving environment, taking on the challenges of the information revolution. The Luca Pacioli Library derwent radical change, eliminating open shelving in 2006. Its adaptive strategies have succeeded in inspiring reading and knowledge creation, and its continuing growth demonstrates its importance in this context. Despite the space reduction and loss of open shelving, thanks to the automated robotic retrieval system, interactive catalog, e-learning platform and elegant space, readers’ information seeking journeys pass from the tangible to the virtual and vice versa. Users have participated enthusiastically in the initiative which asks them to write a review of the book they have borrowed. Published on the e-learning platform, these reviews demonstrate continual commitment to and appreciation of language use.</p>2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Paola Maddalunohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10373Sigla Effe, Genoese publisher of <em>Mio padre comandante di Fiume</em> by Mario D’annunzio2020-01-27T11:13:36+01:00Valentina Sonzinivalentina.sonzini@beniculturali.it<p>The collection Carte Tito Rosina, preserved in the Biblioteca universitaria of Genoa, contains the correspondence between Tiro Rosina (a genoese literary man), Ernesto Fassio and Gambaro (the first was the owner and the second the Director of Sigla Effe, a publisher in Genova).

The heritage of the asylum institutions, which conists not only of the archive, of real estate, of libraries, of museum collections of medical tools and of asylum furnishings, was entrusted to the competent ASL (Local Health Bodies). The sanitary archive of the San Niccolò psychiatric hospital was kept in the premises of the former Chiarugi department, located within the former mental hospital complex in via Roma. It consists of a total of 1916 pieces, which cover a continuous chronological period from 1819 to 2003. In 2003, however, the ASL of Siena decided to donate the Library of San Niccolò to the Faculty of Medicine of the city to avoid dispersing the huge library heritage. The archive as well as the library of the San Niccolò of Siena psychiatric hospital allow us, through the knowledge of the institution’s history, to recover the real experience of the doctors, nurses and patients who<br />populated the asylum.</p>2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Elisabetta Angrisanohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10369Select to preserve: the construction of memory in ecclesiastical archives between history and practice2020-01-27T11:13:36+01:00Gilda Nicolainicolai@unitus.it<p>Even if the memory is selective, reading the past gives new meaning to the present connected with the threads of time, reflected by the lights and shadows of the past and projected into the future. The documentation must be cultivated and preserved beforehand; otherwise there is a weak memory with difficulties and risks, in which the loss of tradition is a near danger. In the context of great cultural changes, the preservation of memory, already complicated on its behalf, may be even more difficult, given the lack of organic works designed to illustrate the set of political, administrative, judicial, ecclesiastical, economic and financial institutions in the specific vision of the relationship between the history and functions of the institutions on the one hand, and the production of writings on the other. Awareness of the preservation of one’s memory was a long process in the history of the Church and perhaps not yet concluded. The article, after a historical excursus of the provisions relating to the construction of ecclesiastical archives and the legislation on the conservation of the acts, focuses attention on selection and waste, trying to highlight the crucial passages and changes that have occurred in the various centuries until today.</p>2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Gilda Nicolaihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10368Third Mission, Communication, and Academic Libraries2020-01-27T11:13:36+01:00Fiammetta Sabbafiammetta.sabba@unibo.it<p>The paper traces the history of ‘Third Mission”, from an ethical perspective to an institutional task, defining the relevance in it of the information-research-society relationship, and the role of communication and of Public Engagement, both as tools to implement this relationship.

The key step remains that of converting from analogue support, paper or microfilm, to the digital one, including the transformation of images of the printed text into digital text: only in this way is it possible to statistically analyze those texts, an analysis that cannot be separated from the historical context of their production and from other sources. In this article, we describe in detail the process of creating a digital corpus formed by Italian newspapers published in Gorizia between 1873 and 1914. This includes digitization, editable text extraction, annotation process and statistical analysis of the resulting time series. The data thus obtained are compared with a corpus of Slovenian newspapers printed in the same city and at the same time, already digitized by the Slovene National Library. The analysis of the 47.466 pages of Italian newspapers allows us to demonstrate the type of information that can be extracted from a digital corpus, highlighting the importance of operating within a historical and comparative context. This example of multilingual digital humanism allows us to identify the statistical traces of profound cultural transitions that have taken place in a very complex geographical area and historical period, whose study cannot ignore a particular attention to cultural, technological and social transformations.</p>2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Nello Cristianini, Thomas Lansdall-Welfare, Gaetano Dato, Marco Menatohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10359Some unpublished documents about Giuseppe Fumagalli (with the edition of an obituary by Vittorio Camerani)2020-01-27T11:13:35+01:00Enrico Pio Ardolinoenrico.ardolino@gmail.com<p>The paper examines some unpublished documents concerning Giuseppe Fumagalli preserved in the archive of the Italian Library Association, presenting and commenting (in view of an integral publication) the correspondence between Fumagalli and Vittorio Camerani (1898-1961), sincere friends from the thirties of the twentieth century. The letters inform us that shortly before his death, which occurred in 1939, Fumagalli had entrusted Camerani with some biographical notes, with the request to publish his obituary. Probably composed during the war years, the obituary remained unpublished and is now preserved in the historical archive of the AIB among the documents of Vittorio Camerani.

Considering the text resulting from the manuscript tradition and from the corrections made by the editors of Epiphanius, we gain two conclusions: 1) the text of the older codices Vaticani is not correct for the sense; 2) the better text of a group of later codices, that is satisfying for the sense and for the grammar, was misunderstood by some editors, producing a wrong interpretation of the whole passage: the king Ptolemy Philadelphus knew from Demetrius Phalereus that existed a people, ancestor of the Romans, called Latins by the Greeks of the early III century b.C. If this is true, the king may have been in search of the Latins’ books for his library.</p>2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Luca Tiberihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/10355Pansophism versus Bibliophilia: the refoundation of the bibliographic sciences2020-01-27T11:13:35+01:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.it2020-01-15T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2019 Alfredo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9524Lucia Sardo, <em>La catalogazione.

Representatives of library and archive professional and scientific communities confronted (thanks also to other European countries authoritative experts) and discussed about conservation, management and enhancement (more and more in the digital environment) of personal archives and libraries from the late nineteenth and twentieth century, hybrid funds and collections which preserve many types of documents and which testify the intellectual activity of leading figures of culture, professions and arts. At the end of the conference, the Guidelines on the treatment of personal funds, edited by the National Commission of special libraries, personal archives and libraries of the Italian Library Association, were presented and discussed; this was an opportunity to deepen the topics addressed by reports, with the final wish to use the confrontation as a starting point to realize ideas and suggestions.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Anna Bilottahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9508What happened in the library?

The article deals with the discussions and reflections driven during the first Italian workshop on Third stream and libraries organized by the Central Library “Guglielmo Marconi” of the CNR (National Research Council) in Rome. The Third stream takes on new goals for the academic libraries, i.e.: the development of the cultural heritage, the long lasting education and the public engagement. In the workshop the best practices of some Italian university libraries (Roma Sapienza, Firenze, Torino, Napoli Federico II, and Ferrara) and two research libraries: the library G. Marconi of the CNR in Rome and the library of the CNR in Potenza have been presented. The discussion has highlighted a great number of activities carried out by Italian libraries that relate to the Third mission and contribute to expand academic library users and to attract the attention of new stakeholders and publics. The Third mission is increasingly becoming an element which changes the model of the academic and research libraries by giving them a role to play for the development of the society.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Maria Cassella, Nicola Madonnahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9506“Non per emettere sentenze, ma per capire chi era”. Notes in the margin of a disputed book2020-01-27T10:42:15+01:00Massimo Gattagatta@unimol.itThe book that the historian Sergio Luzzatto has dedicated to the biographical-judicial events that have involved, and in part still involve, Marino Massimo De Caro and his countless thefts and falsifications of ancient printed works, has aroused much controversy, both among the employees of the works (antiquarian booksellers, librarians, book historians), both among simple readers, despite the fact that Luzzatto himself, in several parts of his book, had underlined the difficulty and complexity of dealing in a balanced manner with such an ambiguous and elusive personality, but also clever and shrewd, like that of De Caro. The reading of this book has therefore turned into a sort of “tribunal of the people”, now with two defendants: the author himself and De Caro; this may seem paradoxical considering the very niche topic of the book. The paper tries to shed more light on a story that involves, on the one hand, an ambiguous and unedifying character, who nevertheless paid for his crimes, and on the other a serious and qualified historian grappling with a “monster” from having to get away with no way out.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Massimo Gattahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9505Bibliography between order and disorder: in search of form2020-01-27T10:42:15+01:00Maurizio Vivarellimaurizio.vivarelli@unito.itPaper about the concept of Bibliography starting from the book by Alfredo Serrai, Bibliografia come scienza: introduzione al quadro scientifico e storico della bibliografia (Milan, Biblion, 2018).2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Maurizio Vivarellihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9504Book cataloging: a reverse way2020-01-27T10:42:15+01:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.itThe rules of book-cataloging are incomplete and inaccurate when they are based on a particular book-collection and on a particular historical context. The proper way to find universal and satisfactory cataloging rules is to deduce them by the principles of bibliography. Since the bibliography has the task to identify and organize the semantic structures and links which underlying the human knowledge, a cataloging system based on bibliography would have the same features. Such a system would be effective in every age and context.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Alfredo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9503The bibliographic metadata in Wikidata: Wikicite and the «Bibliothecae.it» case study2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Alessandra Bocconeaboccone@unisa.itRemo Rivellirrivelli@unisa.itIn recent years, the attention of the librarian world aimed at the progress of Linked Open Data technology and Wikimedia projects has focused on Wikidata, whose infrastructure has proved to be perfectly compatible with Wikicite, an initiative that aims to build a vast database of bibliographic references in linked open data. As part of this initiative, many projects originate from collaborations between the Wikimedia Foundation and libraries: the Library of the University of Salerno also actively participated in the initiative, including the bibliographic metadata of the journal Bibliothecae.it. It is the first italian example of corpus related to a scientific periodical of bibliographicbiblioteconomical scope entirely loaded in Wikidata. The project allows the use of data in any project or program that uses the LOD technology, in order to facilitate the interchange between cultural resources and satisfy the information needs of the user. In the area of bibliography and librarianship, this action represents a new way of creating and sharing bibliographic data, of doing information retrieval and of conducting bibliometric analysis. The positive effects of the project concern the wiki community, which needs reliable and verified sources to base its contents, and the scientific community: by openly publishing the citations sets, an enormous graph of scientific knowledge is opened, encouraging the dissemination, publication and open evaluation of research results.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Alessandra Boccone, Remo Rivellihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9502Between describing and drawing: a "transcription error" in the illustration of the monstrificate fanciulle in the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Linda Barcaiolilinda.barcaioli80@gmail.com<p>What does it happen when, in a verbal-visual text, images break free of textual constraints and deliver their own message? In Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, Aldo Manuzio’s work dated 1499, the images that have a narrative function are spatially tied up to the text fragment that describes the relevant action. Conversely, images with a descriptive function serve as a graphic summary of the numerous details recorded by the main character. All except one: illustration number 73. It portrays the decorative pattern of a well in the temple of Venus Physizoa. The text’s author describes the image in great detail. Instead the illustrator draws some features, omits others and goes as far as to add a few details on his own initiative.

All the same, even in the most innovative libraries, the actual users, as compared to population, are a minority. In addition, after the economic crisis has sprung, the whole public sector is suffering in terms of funding and support. In the last decades, public libraries have started reinventing themselves to become more attractive for their audiences and more in line with contemporary society. The boundaries of their mission become broader and broader while the role of public libraries is reinterpreted as a support to social – more than cultural – needs. The article wonders whether and how much this path should be followed and how the potentially resulting short circuit can be managed.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Anna Galluzzihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9500The Gaetano Cicognani Library in Faenza.

Also in the case of Faenza, the study of the historical and cultural events that characterize the institution and the life of the seminary brings new pieces to the wider picture not only of the religious and cultural history, but also of the political and social history of the territory in which it arose. In the project of the new seminar pursued by Battaglia the construction of the annexed library occupied a prominent place and from the very beginning could count on the support and commitment of Cardinal Gaetano Cicognani (1881-1962) who, at the time, had been together to his brother Amleto Giovanni, a student from the Faenza seminary to whom, despite diplomatic and curial commitments, they maintained constant attention and concern. Gaetano Cicognani took charge of the library in all aspects, with particular attention to enriching constantly the book heritage in which flowed also the texts belonging to the cardinal’s personal library and part of his eloquent and not yet studied testimonials, of his activity of apostolic nuncio in crucial years and nations such as Austria of the years 1936-38 or Spain of the period 1938-53, and of his involvement in the preparatory works of the Vatican Council II. After the cardinal’s death in 1962, “his” library continued to expand, recording a considerable increase in its assets. It has gradually become a gathering point for religious and monastic funds belonging to convents and religious settlements closed or transferred to other offices and libraries of diocesan priests.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Elisabetta Marchettihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9499Considerations on the outcomes of the Inquiry of the Congregation of the Index (1598-1603): the Lucan case2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Giovanni Petrocelligiovannipetrocelli@hotmail.comThe article proposes an examination of the data obtained from the inspection of the book lists coming from 51 monasteries or convents in the Lucanian area and produced as part of the great survey carried out at the behest of the Congregation of the Index between the end of the sixteenth and the beginning of the seventeenth century. The focus is on the publishing informations extrapolated from the bibliographic descriptions surveyed, in an attempt to define an essential map of the editorial presence in the monastic libraries of Basilicata and compare it with the general trend that emerges from the various studies published in the last decade.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Giovanni Petrocellihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9498Origins and developments of the bibliography in the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin (Part I)2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Francesca Neporifrancesca.nepori@beniculturali.itThe essay reconstructs the history of the Capuchin bibliography whose origins are erroneously identified with the publication of the Bibliotheca of Dionisio da Genova, in 1680, or even with that of Bernardo da Bologna, in 1747. Through the study of the various bibliographies of the Order it was attempted to recognize the relationships that the bibliographies have between them (the ones following the previous ones) allowing to recover the ranks of Capuchin history to the present day.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Francesca Neporihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9497Minorum Capuccinorum bibliotheca Bononiae: incunabula and sixteenth-century editions of the Library of the convent of the Friars Minor Capuchin of Bologna2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Donatella Biagi Mainodonatella.biagimaino@unibo.itGiuseppe Mainogiuseppe.maino.53@gmail.comThe cataloguing of the incunabula and the sixteenth-century books kept in the library of the Minor Capuchin Friars’ monastery in Bologna was carried out, where all the book funds present in the territory, coming from the convents of the entire minority province, have converged over time. The following information is provided on each sheet: the signature, the author, the title, the typographic notes, the format, the language and the provenance, or all the indications retrievable from the cover, guard page, frontispiece (such as handwritten notes, ex libris, seals, stamps) useful for retracing the conservative events of the text. As far as the library is concerned, an investigation was carried out to reconstruct the passage through time of the texts, the origins, the dispersions, which are also fundamental for understanding the culture of the Capuchin family.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Donatella Biagi Maino, Giuseppe Mainohttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9496Libro d’Uccelli in pictura. A study of manuscript 2 of the Alessandrina University Library of Rome2020-01-27T10:42:14+01:00Chiara Faiachiara.faia@gmail.comThe manuscript 2 of the Alexandrine University Library in Rome, coming from the personal library of the last Duke of Urbino, Francesco Maria II Della Rovere, preserves inside about 300 color plates of birds and real and fantastic animals, all inserted in an extremely refined naturalistic context, in excellent condition. The sixteenth-century binding, richly adorned on the plates and on the back with allegorical and phytomorphic motifs inserted inside a geometric frame. The aim of the research was to reconstruct its history, starting from all those non-textual elements, of which the code is totally devoid, which identify the most properly physical-material aspect. Through the analysis of the paper and the watermark, of the binding and its ornamentation,and finally the opening coat of arms of the codex, it was possible not only to date it precisely but also to identify the workshop of origin and discover the one who orders its manufacture and that is the Bolognese natural scientist Ulisse Aldrovandi. A precious gift for the Duke Francesco Maria II who will become his patron, supporting him economically in the print of his scientific works.2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Chiara Faiahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9495Languages, Codes and Information2020-01-27T10:42:13+01:00Alfredo Serraialfredo.serrai@libero.it2019-06-12T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2019 Alfedo Serraihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/9017Gino Roncaglia, <em>L’età della frammentazione.

It is a paradox, considering the bibliographic complexity and the importance of the periodicals as a historical source. Contents are often described indirectly, only paying attention to the transcription (also incomplete) of titles; but – many times – this is not enough </span>to give evidence to all colums and topics. This situation has been explained through the analysis of bibliographic news and reviews spread by Italian periodicals from 18th to 19th century; as a matter of fact, this content is known only through rare examples of very detailed biblioghaphies, specialized studies or, clearly, reading the periodicals itself. The regular creation of biblioghaphies provided with key-words about contents could be a solution to this problem. These analytic biblioghaphies would be really useful if they were linked to the library catalogues (nowdays increasingly hypertextual and dynamic); the perfect outlook would be matching them to further links to historic periodicals in digital formats. In this way could be avoided that the direct access to digitized periodicals and the full-text research among articles and news promote the spread of disorganised, unaware and passive research methods. It would also be possible to save time avoiding to make researches on periodical not relevant about your own topic (in this case the contents are about bibliography).</p></div></div></div>2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Rudj Gorianhttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8949British Bibliographical Journals: past present and future2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00John FeatherJ.P.Feather@lboro.ac.uk<div class="page" title="Page 12"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>Library and Information Science as an academic discipline and as formal professional training and education, evolved very slowly in the UK.

To understand the path of bibliographic studies, it was necessary to reconstruct a historical context that would allow an understanding of the relationship between national policies and information policies along the 20th century.

The Publishers’ Bibliography between Information and Advertising2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00Roberta Cesanaroberta.cesana@unimi.it<div class="page" title="Page 24"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>The paper is a first attempt to identify, list and analyze a bibliographic material that has not yet been studied, on which systematic investigations have not been carried out and for which there are also problems related to the scarcity of documentation preserved in our libraries (as for the publishers catalogues). This is the reason why the search for primary sources has necessarily expanded into the publishers’ archives, literary archives and private collections. The bibliographic evidence we are dealing with here, limited to the Twenty Century Italy, is that of publishers’ news bulletins or publishers’ bibliographic journals. First of all, the paper deals with a definition of the subject. Then, we managed to identify about twenty bulletins/journals that fall into our field. Of each of these bulletins/journals we provide a description for the purpose of a first survey of the historical, cultural and social role played by them in the publishing and bibliographic field. There is also a first attempt to identify </span>some parameters and to classify between “open” and “closed” journals.</p></div></div></div>2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Roberta Cesanahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8938Journals and Bibliography. A view from private libraries2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00Giovanna Granataggranata@unica.it<div class="page" title="Page 32"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p>From their origins, scholarly journals have presented a strong bibliographic connotation, as is clear from the well-known preface of the Journal des Sçavans. Contemporary bibliographic literature has adopted this perspective and codified it, especially through the cataloguing of private libraries. In particular, the Parisian booksellers’ system described periodicals as ‘bibliographi periodici’ and this definition has passed into the bibliophile bibliography through De Bure to arrive at the third edition of Brunet’s Manuel du libraire. Starting from these considerations, the topic of the relationship between Periodicals and Bibliography is analyzed through the lens of private libraries, particularly through the selection of philosophical library catalogs that can be consulted in the “Biblioteche filosofiche private in età moderna e contemporanea” database <http://picus. unica.it>. Examination of these catalogs shows that the Parisian booksellers’ solution, after a first phase in which it was adopted without special reservations, has been abandoned since the early 1800s, mainly due to the increase in disciplinary journals which have found a more suitable placement in the various branches of the systematic table. As a result of the separation from the Bibliography, literary and scholarly periodicals have been included in the Historia Litteraria category, or in a special class outside the disciplinary scheme and characterized in a formal sense. Only few titles remain within the Bibliography entry, whose content is strictly bibliographic and has itself a disciplinary connotation.</p></div></div></div>2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Giovanna Granatahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8937Italian bibliographic and library science journals between Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00Alberto Petruccianialberto.petrucciani@uniroma1.it<div class="page" title="Page 22"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>The first Italian library periodical is the «Giornale delle biblioteche», published in Genoa from 1867 to 1873, but the first modern-looking journal is the «Rivista delle biblioteche» founded by Guido Biagi in 1888 (since 1895 «Rivista delle biblioteche e degli archivi»), which was also the official organ of the Italian Bibliographical Society from 1898 to 1906. But for the circulation of information and the debate in the library world, a significant role was played by journals with somewhat different purposes, such as «Il bibliofilo» and Olschki’s «La bibliofilia», and by those aimed at popular libraries, starting from the early years of twentieth century, or published by individual libraries, mostly with news about their activity. All these initiatives, however, had a rather precarious life, while the library world could count on a regular journal rich in content only with «Accademie e biblioteche d’Italia», published by the Directorate General of Academies and Libraries since 1927 and resumed after the second world war in 1950. </span></p></div></div></div>2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Alberto Petruccianihttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8936Italian bibliographic journals from the origins: views for a census2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00Fiammetta Sabbafiammetta.sabba@unibo.it<div class="page" title="Page 48"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>The bibliographic periodical print was one of the main tools used by the intellectual community for conveying literary innovations since the end of the seventeenth century. This study outlines an overview of eighteenth-century literary journalism proposing the identification and analysis of the major publications of this kind, here illustrated through trends, main characters and places, as well as through the analysis of the composition of the published articles carried out by using bibliometric methods. By taking into account for this particular type of publications (from its French genesis to the developments and subsequent modifications occurred in the nineteenth century) some aspects relevant to the bibliographic cataloging activity and some others related to the scientific research in the historical-bibliographic-library field, this essay raise moreover a range of issues which could be dealt with through a survey based on a wider range of relevant criteria. </span></p></div></div></div>2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Fiammetta Sabbahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8935Editorial2019-06-13T10:24:03+02:00Roberta Cesanaroberta.cesana@unimi.itFiammetta Sabbafiammetta.sabba@unibo.it2018-12-31T00:00:00+01:00Copyright (c) 2018 Roberta Cesana, Fiammetta Sabbahttps://bibliothecae.unibo.it/article/view/8495<i>Itinerari del libro nella storia.
