Le collège de Sorbonne a été créé en 1257 à Paris sous les auspices des pouvoirs royaux et pontificaux. Parmi les collèges séculiers, il innove en se dotant de bâtiments et de revenus réguliers et en accentuant sa vocation intellectuelle, dont la bibliothèque est le dispositif principal. Elle renferme plus de 1 000 volumes à la fin du xiiie siècle et est organisée en deux dépôts, l'un destiné à la consultation sur place, l'autre au prêt, pour répondre aux besoins des sociétaires, des étudiants et des maîtres. Cet ouvrage s'attache à étudier les livres du collège, de leur acquisition par les maîtres jusqu'à leur entrée dans l'établissement. Il analyse leur circulation au sein des divers dépôts et leurs usages par les sorbonistes ou par des lecteurs étrangers. Il éclaire les relations du collège avec son environnement institutionnel et social, et l'influence culturelle exercée par la bibliothèque du Moyen Âge à la Renaissance. Deux instrumenta complètent cette publication : un guide codicologique sur les manuscrits du collège et une bibliographie exhaustive des travaux portant sur sa bibliothèque. Mobilisant plusieurs disciplines (histoire, littérature, sociologie et philosophie), ce livre offre les premiers jalons d'une histoire renouvelée des bibliothèques universitaires.

The volume describes experiences of the first twelve years of the Social Sciences Library of the University of Florence in its new location. We talk about management contexts, organisational structures, analysis, projects, crises and solutions affecting most of the services. Moreover, we also present an approach and a working method. Our need to write stemmed from the impression of having accomplished a phase of our work and of being called to take stock of the situation, giving account of the work done and critically analysing it, in order to be ready to face the new challenges that the future would present, starting from today.

The Royal Institute of Signore Montalve alla Quiete was born between 1885 and 1886, by the union of the two congregations founded by the venerable Eleonora Ramirez de Montalvo: the Montalve di Ripoli and the Montalve alla Quiete. From them inherits the principles and the educational action carried out for over two centuries, bringing them to the threshold of the new millennium. In this analytical inventory are described the papers produced by the new Institute. The core relating to female education is only one of the subjects that this archive can offer: architectural and social transformations, the two world wars, customs and traditions of population are just some examples of the researchs offered and the Tuscan historical frame that the cards draw in a well-defined way.

Globalizing the Library focuses on the globalization of information and the library in the period following the Second World War. Providing an examination of the ideas and aspirations surrounding information and the library, as well as the actual practices and actions of information professionals from the United States, Britain, and those working with organizations such as Unesco to develop library services, this book tells an important story about international history that also provides insight into the history of information, globalization, and cultural relations. Exploring efforts to help build library services and train a cohort of professional librarians around the globe, the book examines countries in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific during the period of the Cold War and decolonization. Using the ideas of 'library diplomacy' and 'library imperialism' to frame Anglo-American involvement in this work, Laugesen examines the impact library development work had on various countries. The book also considers what might have motivated nations in the global South to use foreign aid to help develop their library services and information infrastructure. Globalizing the Library prompts refl ection on the way in which library services are developed and the way professional knowledge is transferred, while also illuminating the power structures that have shaped global information infrastructures. As a result, the book should be essential reading for academics and students engaged in the study of libraries, development, and information. It should also be of great interest to information professionals and information historians who are reflecting critically on the way information has been transferred, consumed, and shaped in the modern world.
