Abstract

Our library is named after Petar Preradović. Although much has been published about this poet, there is little information accessible on the
Internet. This is why we thought out the project Preradović on the Internet. We began to develop the database on Petar Preradović with the aim of drawing attention to his place in 19th century Croatian literature and to present his work in an interesting way. The main aims of the project are the creation of an independent database dealing with Preradović as an author with close links to his native region; the adoption and expansion of knowledge about him; the development of a sensibility for poetry and the reading of poetry; a general accessibility and preservation of the material; additions to the
Library’s Native Collection; the preservation of the cultural heritage. The independent database on Preradović contains his biography, chronology of his life and work, a selection of photographs, drawings, musical scores, a selection from his poetry and a bibliography. Each visitor to our network workstations can access the available information or learn about the material relating to Preradović and use it as information or for various themes, papers or scholarly research. The content is accompanied by photographs, Þ rst editions, pictures, sketches, illustrations, videos and audio material. This database is one of the Þ rst projects of digitisation in Croatian library practice; librarians need to adopt knowledge and skills from the field of digitising material; digitisation demands better links between libraries and cooperation with other institutions; it is necessary to develop a national strategy and operation plan for digitising material in libraries; our recommendation: involve volunteers into the work. The database address is www.preradovic.bjelovar.com
