Sažetak
Due to the rapid increase in traditional library materials, the changed technological needs and user requirements, NSK faced with radical changes of library functions, including protecting and ensuring the availability of library materials. The focus of this study is to analyze the characteristics of conservation and restoration activities in NSK, their development, needs, and opportunities. This paper discusses the role of conservators / restorers in the changing environment. It includes investigating the levels of knowledge and skills necessary for the implementation of effective protection. The study identified the serious lack of qualified conservation staff, but also the lack of standardization and criteria as well as practical guidelines that would be appropriate for normal everyday needs and extraordinary situations. While keeping a balance between the needs and interests of different stakeholders and users in today’s fast-changing environment, an increasing need to maintain high ethical standards is essential to good conservation practice. Compliance with the Code of Ethics and rules of the profession is one of the main guarantees of the quality of conservation-restoration work.
