REPRESENTATIVE OF NLM PARTICIPATED IN THE TWELFTH FESTIVAL OF CROATIAN DIGITALIZATION PROJECTS IN ZAGREB

On May 4 and 5, 2023, the National and University Library in Zagreb (NSK) organized and hosted the twelfth D-fest, conference focused on the digitization of cultural and scientific heritage, systems for the management of digital resources, products and services and the promotion of digitization projects.

Zorica Sjekloća, librarian advisor at the National Library of Montenegro “Đurđe Crnojević”, took part in the event, and the topic of her presentation was Digitization of the “Voice of Montenegrin”.

Speaking about the mentioned weekly newspaper for politics and literature, which was published in the period from 1873 to 1922, Sjekloća pointed out that it has the status of a cultural property of exceptional national importance and that the goal of digitalization, apart from the availability of content to end users, was protection of the paper version, which due to frequent use was in poor condition.

Colleague Sjekloća, among other things, explained to the participants of the meeting that on the pages of this Montenegrin newspaper it is possible to follow the overall life of Montenegrin society in a fifty-year period, as well as all important events related to the Balkans and Europe, stressing that all issues of this newsletter that the Library has in its funds, as well as certain missing numbers from the funds of other institutions from the country and abroad have been digitized.
