Yearbook 2008 Spanish libraries
Yesterday, the day the book was presented at the National Library of the Yearbook of Spain Spanish Libraries 2008, edited by the Foundation Alonso Quijano, also responsible for the magazine My library. The presentation was led by Raul Cremades, president of the foundation, and was attended by Manuel Carrion, Juan Sanchez, who spoke under his heteronym Mateo Gomez, and Conchi Jimenez, coordinator of the yearbook that was presented. Carrion ended his speech with the phrase "Felicitémonos all" and thus should be understood that the work yesterday showed the reader for the first time. This is a publication with a two-pronged. On the one hand it wants to offer the state of affairs in the Spanish libraries, which have commissioned reports to up to 66 different specialists and responsible for library systems. On the other hand, have met and discussed about a thousand of professional interest resources available online. The Yearbook is intended to continuity, but even that was not the case, already represents a milestone in the professional Spanish edition because it has never been collected in a single publication an overview of Spanish libraries, which is described by its own responsibility and institutional managers. In rare reports of pages each is given the activity of the National Library of the projects in which the Bureau is working Coordinating Librarian, the state of affairs of public and school libraries, community by community, as well as reality of university libraries, scientific and specialized Spanish. The information resources that are offered have been carefully selected and commented, so the Yearbook also becomes a work of reference required consultation. The publication opens with the results of a survey of librarians Spaniards, who has been analysed by Juan Sanchez. The edition is 5000 copies, of which only will go on sale thousand, and the rest will be distributed to libraries.
