The 2019 research article written by Dutch researchers entitled Digitisation of Manuscripts: Checklist answers an important question that arose in connection with the digitisation of valuable medieval manuscripts, i. e. how to digitise cultural heritage collections in a safe way, while it also examines the advantages, disadvantages, possibilities and limitations of digitisation. The research was carried out with the support of the Metamorfoze Project, the National Programme for the Preservation of Paper-based Document Heritage of the Netherlands, which resulted in a work where we can read about digitisation from a paper conservator’s point of view. Medieval manuscripts are a unique part of our cultural heritage, and it is understandable that libraries would like to make these treasures, including masterpieces, digitally accessible. However, in this process, very frequently too little attention is paid to the special properties of these objects and the risks of damage that may occur during digitisation. In the case of manuscripts, it is not only the content that is valuable, but also the material and form that the work is made of, which can be preserved by a conservator with the appropriate expertise. The compendium of the research article, written in Hungarian, does not only contain all the important theoretical and practical information found in the original work, but also provides a checklist, the result of the research, as a tool for the safe digitisation of manuscripts in memory institutions, to guide conservators, curators, librarians, collections managers and digitisation professionals.

HISTORY of libraries , *HISTORICAL libraries , *SERVICE departments , *LIBRARY directors , *DICTATORSHIP , *ACADEMIC libraries - Abstract
The author, who worked at the Library of the Hungarian Parliament for 42 years and was head of the access services department for 25 years, has previously written about the activities of the institution’s directors in library journals and in a monograph as well. In this paper, he outlines the career of the deputy directors by examining two significant periods in the history of the library, which is still in operation today. The first period lasted until 1950, when the Library Committee, a permanent unit of the House of Representatives, which had played a key role in the oversight and management of the library for eight decades, was abolished. In the second era, formally from 1952 to 1991, the library remained in the building of the Parliament, but was removed from the parliamentary organisational framework and placed under the control of the Ministry of Culture, and we can follow the life of the library through the personalities of the deputy directors. (In the short transitional period from 1950 to 1952, when the oneparty dictatorship was already well established and the Presidential Council took over the majority of the powers of the Parliament as a new body, the preparation for the second era was actually taking place.) In the 110 years examined by the paper, the second men of the Library’s leadership have often played a very important role, first of all in the development of a cultural institution that provided information to the deputies and then to the public at large. Many of them also made their way to the managerial position. The negative role played by deputy directors, who had a detrimental influence on the life of the prestigious library, is also discussed. The deputy directors are introduced through brief biographical sketches and portraits of the heads of the bodies that oversaw the Library of the Hungarian Parliament (the two heads of the Library Committee in Part I were the President and the Clerk-Recorder, and in Part II the Minister was the main person in charge of the ministerial control).

The Béla Hamvas Pest County Library launched the first library webshop of Hungary in November of 2021 under the name of “Books from the city of arts”. Chris Anderson’s long tail concept and Ranganathan’s five laws of librarianship served as the theoretical background of the project. The paper presents the project from the idea to realisation: the administrative issues of a library-run business, the IT development, the products to be sold, the pricing strategies, the operation and the promotion of the online bookshop. The paper concludes that after a few months of operation the webshop innovatively contributed to the accomplishment of the library’s mission. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Beyond being key players in the processing, preserving cultural heritage and providing related services, 21st century libraries are more and more becoming places of meeting, lifelong learning and creation. Libraries fulfil these functions through their various services, especially by organizing programmes, trainings and exhibitions. The aim of this paper is to help organize library events by synthesizing the theoretical background and practical knowledge related to the implementation of programmes. The article deals with the process of organizing events from the point of libraries, and gives an overview of the related marketing activities, new directions and trends. It also reviews the projects that took place in the past years with the topic of programme organization in Hungarian libraries, whose methods and results can help librarians in their work in organizing programmes and building communities. It also presents -- for inspiration -- web pages with programme ideas. The study is an edited text of the winning paper of the 2021 competition for the Young Librarian of the Year Award, founded by the Association of Hungarian Librarians and the Alliance of Libraries and Information Institutes.

From January 2020, the legal framework for adult education has undergone radical changes in Hungary, and the changes have also had a major impact on the system of vocational education and training in libraries. Following a brief description of the new European Action Programme for Adult Education, the author presents the legislative background in Hungary, as in addition to the professional training in the library field, continuing education and competence development activities in libraries have also been brought within the scope of the law. In addition to organisation, the changes impose on libraries serious tasks that they have not carried out until now: knowledge of and compliance with the new body of legislation, documentation and electronic obligations. The paper goes on to describe the process of change in the training of assistant librarians, and then examines the possibilities for further training in the field of librarianship in Hungary and abroad, supplemented by tables of relevant information. It also points out that the greatest challenge to the organisation of training courses in the period under review was the pandemic of the coronavirus and its consequences, which also had a significant impact on cross-border training. It concludes with a summary of the vision for the future, the most important aspect of which is to ensure that the training offer meets the challenges of the library profession and the professional needs of librarians.

The article is a written version of the section on general web archiving problems complementing the presentation of Ádám Perger at the 2021 conference “404 Not Found – Who preserves the Internet?”, in which the authors present typical problems they have encountered frequently during the five years of operation of the Web Archive of the National Széchényi Library. Some of these can be solved by the parametrisation the archiving tool or using alternative technology, while others require the involvement of the content provider. The aim of the paper is to raise awareness on how to make websites robotand archive-friendly, similar to the way optimisation is done for accessibility. The article is based partly on the experiences of the Web Archive of the Nation al Széchényi Library and the MIA Wiki knowledge base, and partly on examples collected in the course material for the accredited course of the Library Institute entitled “Internet archiving as a public library task”.

Hungarian-speaking professional acting celebrated the centenary of its birth in 1890. The National Hungarian Actors’ Association and Retirement Institute, the professional organisation of rural theatres, intended to commemorate the anniversary with a series of celebrations. The highlight of the jubilee events was the first national theatrical exhibition, which opened on 15 August 1890 in the Kunsthalle of the National General Exhibition of 1885, in the City Park. For rural theatre, which represented the majority of Hungarian-language theatre, the jubilee was an excellent opportunity to present its past and present – to present itself outside the stage and the theatre as well. The research paper seeks to answer how this was done, and with what results. In addition to the catalogue of the first Hungarian theatrical exhibition, the drawings of Tivadar Dörre and the photographs of Sándor Halácsy have been preserved – and there’s more: many of the exhibited objects have been preserved by the actors’ association. These were the first items of the association’s collection of theatre history, which was later transferred to the Theatre History Collection of the National Széchényi Library in 1950 (since 2020 it is called Theatre History and Music Collection).

SOCIAL responsibility , *LIBRARY administration , *LIBRARY cooperation , *SOCIAL responsibility of business - Abstract
In 2021, the standard ISO 26000 -- Guide to Corporate Social Responsibility was renewed, and its translation into Hungarian was completed. When making an overview of the topics and issues of corporate social responsibility, it can be seen that there are hardly any of them unrelated to libraries as organizations. The renewal of the standard, originally published in 2011, and the feedback from libraries on how difficult it is to interpret the criterion of social responsibility in the Quality Performance Evaluation System of Libraries (KMÉR), inspired the author to write this study. The paper deals with a part of the standard that presents the link between the organisation and the social responsibility. It is a resume for professionals, that can be a significant guide and a starting point for the implementation of certain important aspects of the standard in the organization's regulations and basic documents. In addition to the interpretation of the concepts, the related topics and issues as well as the principles that form the backbone of social responsibility are presented. Besides describing the standard, the study also contains important supplementary notes by the author. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In 2020, the ELTE University Library Service (ULS) became the first library in Hungary which was awarded the EFQM "Commitment to Excellence" certificate. This paper briefly describes the organization of EFQM, the quality assessment model and the recognition system developed. The authors present the application of ULS, describe the issues and results of self-assessment, and summarize the objectives and findings of the three development projects implemented under the application. The article briefly describes the most important changes to the EFQM Model 2020, which was introduced from 2021 and was significantly revised in terms of both content and design. With the introduction of the new model, the recognition system has also been renewed, which has had an impact on the development of the National Excellence Award and the National Excellence Recognition Scheme, which was relaunched in 2021.
