Eventos

As Bibliotecas e os Arquivos afirmam-se, hoje como no passado, como plataformas privilegiadas para o acesso à informação e ao conhecimento, conjugando uma complexa realidade de fatores humanos, materiais e tecnológicos para um exercício igualitário dos direitos e deveres sociais, cívicos e culturais.

Enquanto organizadores, mediadores e facilitadores de acesso, os profissionais de informação e documentação são o esteio essencial para potenciar o valor social da informação e o alcance estratégico que hoje assumem as tecnologias de informação pela sua capacidade de construir integração.

A gestão de sistemas e redes de informação é uma necessidade fundamental da qual dependem, cada vez mais,  a sustentabilidade e resultados das instituições mas também a relevância e impacto dos serviços de informação que prestam e da permanência do património que gerem.

Em 2012, o 11º Congresso Nacional de Bibliotecários, Arquivistas e Documentalistas apresenta-se como um espaço de reflexão e debate sobre o presente e o futuro das bibliotecas e arquivos face a um contexto de condicionalismos e exigências que desafiam conceitos, meios e soluções.

ELAG is the annual conference of the European Libraries Automation Group.

ELAG is Europe’s premier conference on the application and development of information technology in libraries and documentation centres. The annual ELAG (European Library Automation Group) Conference expects over 200 participants from all over the world (mainly library and IT professionals and researchers).

This year’s tag line will be ‘Inside Out Library’: while ELAG 2013 will still be focused on specific, library related IT issues, we want to expand the aim and target audience by addressing innovative topics such as Open Access. ELAG 2013 will also host two pre-conferences: THATCamp, which focuses on researchers in the digital humanities, and an OpenAIRE workshop.

ELAG 2013, the 37th ELAG conference, will take place in Ghent, Belgium from May 28th until May 31st 2013.

“Libraries in the Digital Age (LIDA) is a biennial international conference that focuses on the transformation of libraries and information services in the digital environment. In recognition of evolving online and social technological influences that present both challenges and opportunities, “ASSESSMENT” is the theme for LIDA 2014. The conference theme is divided into two parts. The first part addresses advances in qualitative assessment methods and practices and the second part covers assessment methods involving alternative metrics based on social media and a wider array of communicative activities, commonly referred to as “altmetrics.” While qualitative methods have a long tradition of application, altmetrics are a set of new approaches to filtering information and to evaluating scholarly communication and research, with possible application to libraries as well. LIDA 2014 brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners from all over the world in a forum for personal exchanges, discussions, and learning, made memorable by being held in an enchanting and spectacularly beautiful city on the shore of the Adriatic Sea.”
