Telling or listening to stories is something that defines human beings. With the arrival of the Internet and social networks, the demand for content has increased considerably. Our archives are full of experiences to be narrated. In this narrative, literary techniques will help us determine the most appropriate style for our story, the point of view, title, choice of characters, etc. In addition, the literary narration and the archive document have a thing in common: conflict, generated by a person’s struggle to achieve something. The purpose of this work is to give brief indications to those archivists who feel the need and even the obligation to make our documentary heritage known.

There was a time not too long ago when one person could own another. The slave was completely dependent on its owner and how it could well be sold, rented, mortgaged ... At present our image of that situation does not conform to what it really was, since we have known it through movies, the Internet or social networks. With this history workshop we continue the work begun with the women’s history workshop and we try to show with a participatory pedagogy what life was like for these people. Through documents from the funds of the Provincial Historical Archive of Córdoba and with the collaboration of the students, we present real events and try to dismantle some of the most widespread myths. It is about bringing a rigorous history closer to young people in an entertaining and participatory way, in short of turning the archive into a history classroom.

The estate files are an important part of the judicial archives. Their economic nature and complexity determine that they include all kinds of records related to the goods and people involved, and therefore have been preserved to a greater extent than other archival series. In this paper we analyze the estate files from Juzgado de Primera Instancia e Instrucción de Rute (16th to 19th centuries), kept in Archivo Histórico Provincial de Córdoba, from an archival, diplomatic, historical point of view, to draw attention to their value and wealth of content.

The transformations that archives are going through should have their reflection in the educational and social role that they play. In that sense, we proceed on the basis that every document can be pedagogically communicated, whatever its nature or the audience to which it is directed. On the other hand, through the content of archival documents, we become aware of great social changes that have taken place over time, especially those related to women’s history. To show that part of our history and raise awareness about the need to continue working for gender equality, we have developed a workshop for 2nd and 4th-year students from E.S.O. We use a participatory approach to show documents from the 16th to the 20th century, trying to capture their attention and promoting debate at all times.

Traditionally the deterioration of ancient books have been seen like a prejudice or like a decrease of their value, and often hurtful restorations which have been carried out, have involved an added damage and even they’ve tried to cover up, or better said, to fake books´ lost of hardware. However the deterioration itself, is a source of information about the life of each exemplary: utilization, abandonment, restoration, theft, pillaging, censorship, mutilation… facts that couldn’t be shown in another way. In addition, this information associated with others studies, as studies about handwritten notes, mark-reading, library catalogues, auctions, documents of file… would produce a more complete point of view about the history of each exemplary.

During the Second Spanish Republic the book ceased to be a mere information medium to become a symbol. In the popular libraries of athenaeums and syndicates, the book represented the possibility of a better life for the people and a threat to the privileges of the ruling classes. On the other hand, ecclesiastical libraries and archives, notarial archives and of all kinds kept a past that some wanted to erase. When the Spanish Civil War began, there were attacks on the bibliographic heritage perpetrated by both sides.

Robbery is a serious problem in libraries. Thereforethe investigation in anti-robbery magnetic systems isnecessary. They must be cost-effective. Despite thesesystems, some users learn how to avoid the detectionby removing the magnetic strip. We propose a newmethod. It consists of putting aleatory a number —from zero to three— of strips. So the user is notcertain of having removed all the ships of the book,which causes uncertainty and avoids the robbery. Inits implementation we use aleatory number tablesand/or a systematic sampling. Likewise, this methodhas been proved in the reference section of theBiblioteca Pública del Estado-Provincial de Córdoba,with a decrease in the disappearances of books.

Spanish bibliographic and documentary heritage suffered many significant losses during the Spanish Civil War. This article discusses its beginnings during the period of the Second Republic and describes the most significant destructions taking place during the actual war conflict. A short analysis of these destructions is carried out for future research.

Los catálogos de acceso público en línea son sistemas automatizados de recuperación a los que se recurre ante necesidades informativas. No obstante, aún no proporcionan los servicios que se espera de ellos, tanto en la recuperación como en la interacción con los usuario de la biblioteca. Su evolución los ha llevado de simples buscadores por algunos campos a auténticos portales interactivos. Se han ideado formas de “expandir” el OPAC en este sentido: enlaces hipertexto, formación de usuarios...Proponemos la inclusión de cuestionarios de usuarios en nuestro OPAC, para incrementar la comunicación entre el usuario y la biblioteca, estableciendo un flujo ágil y constante de información que mejore la gestión de la biblioteca. Presentamos un cuestionario tipo, así como la información que nos proporcionaría y estudiamos su viabilidad desde distintos puntos de vista: calidad de la información, aspectos relativos a su implementación informática, cuestiones relacionadas con la privacidad de los datos, repercusiones en la toma de decisiones de la biblioteca.

Both the work carried out by the Pedagogical Missions Trust and its impact on the 2nd Spanish Republic are examined, focusing on the creation of libraries at rural schools to serve as instruments for making access to culture and education widely accessible.

Reconstruimos la Biblioteca del Colegio de la Encarnación de los jesuitas de Montilla.Partimos del catálogo que se realizó en la propia Biblioteca en 1749, añadimos todos loslibros que se han conservado con la nota de posesión manuscrita de la Biblioteca, asícomo diferentes fuentes documentales de archivos y bibliotecas. Como resultado hemosrealizado un catálogo, ordenado alfabéticamente, en el que reflejamos el catálogooriginal de la Biblioteca, al que hemos añadido todos los datos que hemos podidorecabar de los ejemplares conservados. Asimismo realizamos un estudio bibliográficode la colección, analizamos su temática y otros aspectos destacados, deteniéndonos enlas obras y autores de mayor relevancia., We've rebuilt the Jesuits' College of La Encarnacion Library in Montilla. We startedwith the catalogue made by the own Library in 1749, then adding all the survivingbooks with the Library's handwritten note of possession as well as several documentarysources of archives and libraries. As a result, we've created a catalogue, alphabeticallysorted, in which we've mirrored the Library's original catalogue, adding all the datawe've been able to gather from the remaining volumes. Additionally, we've done abibliographic study of the collection, analyzing its topics and other marked aspects anddwelling on the works and authors of greatest relevance.

As a follow-up of some seminal ideas of Peter Finke, this article defends the use of the concept of ecosystem in language studies, in a kind of “ecosystemic linguistics”. According to this perspective, there are processes of information and communication not only in social ecosystems, but also in biological ecosystems. This optic implies a holistic view of the object of study, since everything is mutually inter-related. The text characterizes the ecosystem, inserting language in a language-world system. The main features of the ecosystem are openness, reciprocity, complexity, hierarchy, dynamicity, stability, productivity and diversity. However, language is an anthropogenic system, what does not impede its inclusion in an ecosystem, namely, the linguistic ecosystem, the basic unity of language studies. The organization goes from the physical sound, passing by the phoneme, the morpheme up to the language sphere. Ecosystemic linguistics is a new way of doing linguistics, made possible with the advent of ecology. A side-effect of this perspective is an awareness of the fact that we are product of and affected by nature, but we can also intervene in it.&nbsp, Dando continuidade a ideias seminais de Peter Finke, o artigo defende o uso do conceito de ecossistema, chegando a falar em “linguística ecossistêmica”. Nessa perspectiva, tanto nos ecossistemas biológicos quanto nos humanos existem também processos de informação e comunicação, pois também eles são ecológicos. A visão ecossistêmica exige que se encare o objeto de estudo de forma holística, uma vez que tudo está relacionado. O texto caracteriza o ecossistema, inserindo a língua num sistema língua-mundo. As principais características desses ecossistemas são abertura, reciprocidade, complexidade, hierarquização, dinâmica, estabilidade, produtividade e diversidade. Mas, a linguagem é um sistema antropogênico, o que não impede que esteja inserida em um ecossistema, no caso, ecossistema linguístico. Este é a unidade básica dos estudos linguísticos. A organização vai do som, passando pelo fonema até chegar à esfera das línguas. A linguística ecossistêmica é uma nova maneira de se fazer linguística, tornada possível com o advento da ecologia. Um efeito colateral dessa perspectiva é uma conscientização de que somos produtos e afetados pela natureza, mas intervimos nela também.
