Rekonstrukcija i formiranje savremene biblioteke manastira Studenice - primer dobre prakse očuvanja kulturnog nasleđa Srbije

Abstract

The work was created as a consequence of the engagement of the librarians of the University Library in Kragujevac within the framework of the project Auditing and Expert Processing of the Studenica Monastery Library. The article presents the need and proof of the importance of preserving cultural heritage in the case of a successful reconstruction of the Studenica monastery library, as well as the catalog processing of library publications in electronic form. Historical aspects of the creation and development of the monastery libraries and their influence on the literacy and culture of the Serbian people were considered. The possibility of further expansion of engagement on the conservation and digitization of library material would be a great help in working for scientists of philology, historical, archaeological and theological provinces. The reconstructed and modernized library of Studenica monastery became a role model for other monasteries, making the first step towards a different affirmation of these special libraries.
