The article discusses Czech- and German-language popular Christian literature published in Bohemia, Czech Republic, during the 18th and 19th centuries in order to chart the history of popular religious beliefs and practice by both Catholics and Protestants. The authors reflect on the value of such manuscripts and pamphlets as sources for religious history and describe the collections available in libraries in the Czech Republic. Topics discussed include the role of prayerbooks, for example by Capuchin monk Martin von Cochem, Bavarian government official Karl Eckart von Eckartshausen, and the anonymous book "Obět' před Bohem," for the development of personal Catholic religious identities, methods of copying the texts, and differences between Catholic and Protestant texts.

Die Transformation der Bibliotheksangebote schreitet immer weiter voran. In vielen Bibliotheken wird der sichtbare Buchbestand mehr und mehr von Arbeitsplätzen und Gruppenräumen verdrängt, Bibliotheken unterliegen zunehmend Neudefinitionen unter dem Label von Lern- und Begegnungsorten. Daneben nimmt die Bedeutung von elektronischen Medienangeboten und webbasierten Dienstleistungen laufend zu. Gleichzeitig ist das umfangreiche elektronische Angebot, welches Bibliotheken teuer lizensieren oder kaufen, oft nicht in aller Breite und zielgruppenbezogen bekannt und erfährt keine adäquate Nutzung. Mit dem Projekt cUBe wurde in der im Frühsommer 2016 nach umfangreicher Sanierung neu eröffneten Bibliothek Münstergasse der Universitätsbibliothek Bern der Versuch unternommen, die reichhaltigen digitalen Nachweise und Bestände für das Bibliothekspublikum sichtbarer, besser zugänglich und damit bekannter zu machen. Dabei wurde auf Basis der neuen Technologien des physischen Webs die standortbasierte Verbindung von OnlineInformationen (Katalog, E-Medien, sonstige digitale Angebote) mit den entsprechenden Räumen der Bibliothek und den vor Ort noch verfügbaren Beständen realisiert. The transformation of library services is constantly proceeding. In many libraries, print collections are replaced by space designated to learning. Increasingly, our libraries are defined by labels like learning or meeting space. In addition, the importance of electronic collections and web-based services is constantly growing. However, this extensive and expensive electronic material licenced or bought by libraries is often neither known in detail and to all target groups nor used appropriately. The project cUBe was launched in late spring 2016 after an extensive renovation of the newly opened Münstergasse Library. cUBe aims at improving visibility, access and publicity of the library’s comprehensive digital references and collections for its users. On the basis of physical web technologies, a location-based connection was implemented between online information (catalogue, electronic media, other digital material and services) and the corresponding locally available collections and library areas.

Seit Mai 2013 fördert die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) Pilotprojekte zur Digitalisierung historischer Zeitungen in vier Bibliotheken Deutschlands, darunter in der Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Bremen. Zudem erfolgen der Ausbau der Zeitschriftendatenbank (ZDB) und die Anpassung des DFG-Viewers für Zeitungen. Neben der signifikanten Vermehrung digitalisierter Zeitungen erarbeiten die am Rahmenprojekt teilnehmenden Bibliotheken Standards der Zeitungsdigitalisierung, die auch für zukünftige Digitalisierungsprojekte Relevanz haben. Das Pilotprojekt der SuUB Bremen hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, den hier vorhandenen vollständigen Bestand deutschsprachiger Zeitungen des 17. Jahrhunderts zu digitalisieren, eine Sammlung, die in keiner anderen Bibliothek so vollständig vorhanden ist. Die Präsentation der Zeitungen erfolgt im Portal Digitale Sammlungen der SuUB Bremen (http://brema.suub.uni-bremen.de/) auf der Basis der Software Visual Library sowie im Viewer der DFG. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt die Zeitungsdigitalisierung im Kontext der aktuellen Förderpolitik der DFG vor. Neben der Herausstellung der standard- und strukturbildenden Ziele der Pilotprojekte mit vier teilnehmenden Bibliotheken werden die spezifische Ausrichtung und die Besonderheiten des Bremer Projekts thematisiert. Since May 2013, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has been funding pilot projects which are aimed at the digitization of historical newspapers at four German university libraries, among them the State and University Library Bremen. As part of the projects, the Union Catalogue of Serials (ZDB) - the world’s largest specialized database for serial titles (journals, annuals, newspapers...) – will be adapted for the cataloguing and searching of digitized newspapers. The newspaper entries are fed into the ZDB and are also made available via the DFG Viewer. The projects will not only lead to a significant increase in the worldwide availability of digitized newspapers but will also establish national standards for future newspaper digitization. The State and University Library Bremen is digitizing its comprehensive collection of 17th century German-language newspapers. These newspapers will be made available both via the library's own digital collections portal (http://brema.suub.uni-bremen.de/) based on the 'Visual Library' software and via the DFG viewer. The present article focuses on the newspaper digitization within the context of the current DFG funding policy. It highlights the standard and structure-building goals of the four pilot projects and also discusses the specifics of the Bremen project.

The article discusses a European Union (EU) project to integrate the digitalized cultural assets of the EU countries and to simplify access to those resources. Each participating country supplies its own portal to its digitized objects and collections in archives, libraries, and museums. Those portals in turn will be available through a common, multilingual portal in the summer of 2008 under the project MICHAEL Plus (Multilingual Inventory of Cultural Heritage in Europe).
