Arquitectura De Las Bibliotecas Virtuales - 4 views

  •  
    La arquitectura de las bibliotecas virtuales posee dos aspectos: la arquitectura del edificio de la biblioteca virtual (su sitio web) y la arquitectura de la información allí contenida. Cada uno de estos temas constituye hoy una especialización profesional. Cuando una universidad necesita crear una nueva biblioteca tradicional, existe cierto consenso internacional, y mucho se ha publicado sobre ello, respecto de los requerimientos arquitectónicos de un edificio destinado a una biblioteca universitaria y la forma recomendada de construir cada una de las secciones de ésta, así como las características de construcción de cada uno de los muebles para cada servicio y para los procesos técnicos.

Bibliotecas móviles como instrumento para promover la lectura - 0 views

  •  
    Cuando pensamos en bibliotecas móviles, siempre las asociamos con los bibliobuses. Sin embargo, existen otros medios de transporte, que son usados en determinadas zonas, a las que no se puede llegar de otra forma: el agua, la selva o el desierto no son barreras para acceder a la lectura. BIBLIOLANCHA En Argentina: Una lancha de 8 m de eslora recorre las islas del Delta del Paraná en el noroeste de la provincia de Buenos Aires. Dotada de un fondo de 2.000 ejemplares, dispone de ordenadores con conexión a Internet y organiza talleres de promoción a la lectura. Es atendida por un "promotor cultural" ayudado por un bibliotecaria y una voluntaria de la zona que se atiende. El inconveniente para poder prestar sus servicio, radica en los elementos climáticos, como en este caso el tema de las crecidas del río.
