Central Library

A critical part of the strategy for delivery of information to the end-user is that one can anticipate marked increased usage of the more traditional, hard-copy based resources of the centralized library. The tools described here are frequently complementary to the pivotal library-based information center. What one can anticipate, however, is a much more focused use of hard-copy based information...

During the first quarter of the twentieth century, there were efforts to establish workshops in various archives and libraries through individual enterprise. One such endeavor was made by the Central Library in Barcelona, which sent selected technicians to the Vatican Library in Rome for training. Later, a small restoration laboratory was started in the Central Library, which, for the time, was one of the most advanced in the country (3). It remained active for some thirty-five years the operation ceased when its personnel were transferred to other duties. During the same era, the National Library in Madrid established a career field never heard of before Paper Restorer. The position was filled by a self-taught mender of engravings, documents, and maps, who on retirement was not replaced. 

The techniques used by the Central Library were relatively sophisticated for the time local librarians were given short indoctrination courses in those techniques and learned how to make simple repairs on books. However, in the majority of Spain s libraries, bookbinders, if they were available, doubled as restorers in archives, people did paste-and-paper repairs in addition to regular duties. No one, not even at the Central Library, was available to confront the broader problems of deterioration facing the custodians of the nation s records on paper and parchment. 

In 1949, a member of the Pontifical University in Comillas conducted a survey of facilities dedicated to the pathology of the book (6). The conclusion was simple enough Spain had no center capable of studying the discipline comprehensively. The report mentioned the many good intentions, only partially realized, of a dedicated few to establish such a capability it recommended strongly an entity of established prestige such as the Central Library or the National Library to initiate and sponsor a national center. Nothing came of the idea.

The operation of the plant serves the purpose of a grid-independent electricity supply of the central library of the research center. Surplus solar energy in the summer season is stored as hydrogen gas and is re-converted into electricity in the wintertime. The daily balance of demand and supply is realized with the short-term storage battery with allows an operation for three days. The plant can be operated without personnel [27]. All plant components (electrolyzer, gas purification system, fuel cell, etc.) except the storage pressure tanks are located within a large experimental building (total volume - 20,000 m ) on a 7 m X 18 m area with a distance to the roof of 17 m.

Public libraries in both the United Kingdom and the United States vary in the extent of their holdings of scientific material, but usually have access to a much greater stock of material than can be found on their own shelves. In the United Kingdom their activities are co-ordinated through a series of regional arrangements which culminate in the National Central Library.
