The manuscript collection of the research library zadar : manuscript heritage or archival fond?
Tatijana Petrić
Sažetak
The work of the Research Library Zadar has survived through different political systems, Austro-Hungarian and Italian authorities, the period of socialism and today’s democratic form of government, as well as the suffering of the two Wars, World War II and the Homeland War. Through the political background and the changes taking place in the city of Zadar, the founding of the Scientific Library Zadar is presented, and the first library Rules, according to which the organized professional and administrative work of the Library is conducted, as well as the establishment of a collection of manuscripts, is analyzed. In the context of historical and political turmoil, author of the paper raises the question of the survival of the collection of manuscripts, and rules under which the collection is established and processed. The rules and standards are at the European level, but the question remains which rules and traditions were followed by the Scientific Library Zadar through its historical development? The author analyzes the organization of the collection of manuscripts relating to the accommodation and signature, inventory, catalog types and levels of bibliographic description. Through the observation of bibliographic records, accurately monitored accession of individual manuscripts and by comparing the methods of individual manuals for cataloging and archival practice, the author provides a historical context of bibliographic organization manuscripts for the Research Library, its development, and changes that have been adopted by librarians. By analyzing the library Rules, Austrian instructions, and Italian cataloging traditions, author suggests unity and wider European context in the application of rules for processing manuscripts. In this wider context, there is a tradition in Zadar, and author’s descriptions of methods used in handling the collection of manuscripts show that. Referring to the results of the analysis there is a clear connection of library rules and methods with archival rules and methods; the author refers to the linking of institutions, methods and manual processing of the collections of manuscripts and archival documents.
