Sažetak
Zagreb City Libraries have introduced new service for library users called “Listen to the library music collection”. The first phase of the project involves digitizing music collection of the August Cesarec Library and the improvement of library catalogue features. The new, greatly improved service allows free access to digitized music collections, both online to the partial segments, and to the complete ones inside the library facilities, thus allowing access regardless of a CD’s loan status or its location. This simplifies and improves user’s selection, which is particularly important for users with special needs and disabilities. This service allows such users the possibility of direct access to library collections from their homes. The next phases of this project will be focused on gradual inclusion of the library’s other music departments around the town in order to digitize their own music collections. It should be mentioned that different departments sometimes possess identical items in their collections, and therefore the final number of digitized records will be smaller than the total number of resource items found in the collections. The programs and solutions applied in the project may also be used in the future for the creation of a video catalogue which would include valuable movies, live concert recordings, and other video recordings.
