Abstract

In order to preserve its cultural heritage and open it to the public, the Library of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts has started with the digitization of the Academy’s editions and publications (monographs, periodicals, and sheet music), including old and rare books from the valuable library collections, and thus established the foundations for the library repository on the web, called the Digital Collection of the Library of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts. In the meantime, other Academy scientific research units, such as the Division of the History of the Croatian Theatre, the Division of the History of the Croatian Music, and the Fine Arts Archives within the Architecture and Urban Planning Cabinet, started with the digitization of their valuable and unique materials. Encouraged by the Academy Library, they also participate in the founding of the institutional repository on the web, called the Digital Collection of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, in which all present and future digital collections of all the Academy units, working on the projects of digitization of their materials, are going to be stored. The Portal may be found on the following website: http://hazu.arhivpro.hr; it allows all interested users worldwide to access the digital copies of the treasure of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, such as unique manuscripts, important scientific papers, rare incunabula, and valuable works of art.
