Crisis proves a curse for Greece's Orthodox Church
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/04/20/us-greece-church-idUSBRE83J1A8201…

ATHENS | Fri Apr 20, 2012 2:48pm EDT
(Reuters) - Close links between the Greek state and the Orthodox
Church are turning from a blessing for the clergy into a curse as the
debt-laden government struggles to fund the ancient institution, just
as impoverished Greeks need its charitable work most.
Starved of money as the state makes huge spending cuts, the deeply
conservative church which grew from one of the earliest centers of
Christianity is seeking new sources of funds.
But despite a new spirit of enterprise, such as at one monastery which
wants to build a solar energy farm, numbers of priests are dwindling,
those that remain are suffering pay cuts, and the church is fighting
to keep soup kitchens open as unemployment soars and poverty deepens.
"The tills are empty and the system is collapsing," said Ignatios
Stavropoulos, a modernizing priest who has his own page on LinkedIn, a
social website for professionals.
Under a 60-year-old treaty, the state agreed to pay priests' salaries
in exchange for large amount of church property, including land. But
this means more than 10,000 priests are now on the government payroll,
putting a 190 million euro ($250 million) annual burden on the
country's overstretched budget.
Under the terms of an international bailout that saved Greece from
bankruptcy, the government is cutting pay which for a typical parish
priest is about 1,000 euros a month. Athens will also fund only one
new priest to replace every 10 who retire or die, causing shortages in
remote parishes during a deep recession when the flock most needs
help.
In the cities, the church has stripped operations to the bone to save
money for the soup kitchens and charities it runs for the growing army
of the homeless and the unemployed.
Unlike in some European nations to the north where the influence of
religion is dwindling, the church plays a leading role in the life of
the Greece.
Long-bearded priests, dressed in flowing black robes, are a common
sight on the country's streets and the Orthodox faith is recognized by
the constitution as the official religion. When a new government was
sworn in last year, the Archbishop of Athens blessed the prime
minister and cabinet in a colorful ceremony.
According to opinion polls, about 80 percent of respondents believe in
God. This makes Greeks among Europe's strongest Christians, although
many are infrequent church-goers.
MIXED FEELINGS
In a country where private charities and volunteering remain
embryonic, the main burden of helping the destitute and downtrodden
falls on church shoulders.
But attitudes towards the church are mixed and it often draws
criticism for being too close to the state.
Many citizens believe it still owns too much property, pays too little
in taxes, and generally fails to contribute its fair share as ordinary
Greeks' tax bills soar under the austerity demanded by the country's
bailout from the EU and IMF.
The church dismisses such notions. "It's a myth that we're drowning in
money," said Father Irinaios Laftsis, a priest in the northern diocese
of Alexandroupolis.
Over the past decades the church has transferred 96 percent of its
property to the state. It also paid 12.6 million euros in taxes in
2011, it said last month, stressing that the church was treated no
differently from any other non-profit organization.
To cover the shortage of priests, some bishops are permitting laymen
to take services. These volunteers receive no state wages and don't
wear the characteristic vestments.
For instance, a retired army officer recently started holding mass at
Avantas, a village close to the eastern border with Turkey, said
Father Irinaios. "Priests in small villages retire or pass away and
there is nobody to replace them," he said. "We are going to have a
huge problem."
The church is already slashing its operating expenses to cope with the
rising costs of its social work. Last year, it spent almost 96 million
euros on the 700-odd charities it runs.
"The crisis does not only affect our charities' functioning, it also
threatens their very existence," Bishop Efstathios of Sparta said
earlier this month. State pension funds had stopped paying
contributions to the charities he runs for almost a year, he
complained.
Building or restoration work on churches, some home to ancient
frescoes and ikons, has often ground to a halt while many are not
properly heated during the harsh Greek winter to cut back on fuel
expenses.
Economies are being made at all levels. Church orders for candles
dropped 40 percent this Easter season, a religious items merchant in
the southern province of Arcadia told Reuters.
OFF THE AIR
In February, the church briefly took its 23-year-old, cash-strapped
radio station off the air, depriving listeners of the daily mix of
sermons and cultural programs.
Spreading poverty is making matters even worse. Austerity-pinched
believers are cutting down on private donations while businesses are
going belly up, depriving the church of rental income and swelling the
queues in its soup kitchens.
"Needs are increasing while resources are falling," said Father
Vassileios Hatzavas, who runs the Athens Archbishopric's poor relief
fund.
As Greek unemployment soars to record levels, soup kitchen rations
more than doubled in Athens last year to about 10,000 a day, not
counting about 3,000 food packages sent to families each month,
Hatzavas said.
As the government tightens its purse strings, the clergy are
increasingly looking to alternative revenue sources.
Short of cash and with much of its still abundant real estate tied up
in ownership disputes, the church is seeking cooperation with
municipalities, the army or private business to develop sites,
Hatzavas said.
For the first time, the church sent an official delegation last month
to a religious tourism fair in Russia, the world's biggest Christian
Orthodox country and a major tourism target. Also, Penteli monastery
outside Athens is planning to build a solar park to tap into subsidies
for renewable energy producers.
Some priests may have gone too far in their fund-raising zeal, such as
Efraim, abbot of the 1,000-year-old Vatopedi monastery.
Efraim masterminded a scheme six years ago under which monks at the
monastery on Mount Athos, a independent Orthodox peninsular enclave,
persuaded government officials to exchange cheap farmland for prime
Athens real estate.
Efraim has been charged with a fraudulent deal which prosecutors say
cost the state tens of millions of euros.
Notwithstanding the Vatopedi affair, the crisis is offering the church
a chance to reduce its financial dependence on the state via
legitimate business enterprises, as other churches did decades ago.
"It's a matter of survival for the Church," Stavropoulos said. ($1 =
0.7621 euros)

======================================
Anthony Marx
New York Public Library
Dear Dr. Marx,
We write, as scholars, writers, researchers and teachers, who have long
benefitted from the services and collections available to us at the four
research facilities of the New York Public Library. We are alarmed by
the Central Library Plan, which seems to us to be a misplaced use of
funds in a time of great scarcity. The budget cutbacks of the past five
years have had disastrous effects for the NYPL’S research libraries, and
especially 42nd Street:
*the skilled staff vital to supporting our research activities—curators,
archivists, bibliographers and librarians—have been drastically reduced
in number;
*the Slavic and Baltic division and the Asian and Middle Eastern
division have been entirely eliminated; and there is no full-time
curator for the Slavic collection.
*the Schomburg Library in Harlem—THE place to do research on
African-American history-- has been allowed to deteriorate through the
postponement both of capital improvements and of computer upgrading;
*The Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center is no longer a
haven for scholars and critics. Many of the reference librarians who
specialized in dance, music, recorded sound, and theater wre eliminated,
moved off the reference desks or offered buyouts.
Instead of addressing these issues, the CLP will spend over $300 million
on a restructuring of the 42nd Street building which includes a huge
expansion of public space, the removal of stacks (and and the 3 million
books in them), and the creation of a circulating library in the
building. While we understand that it may be necessary to store some
books in order to make room for others and that more computer access may
be necessary for users of the library, the changes planned envision a
much more radical transformation.
NYPL will lose its standing as a premier research institution (second
only to the Library of Congress in the US),--a destination for
international as well as American scholars-- and become a busy social
center where focused research is no longer the primary goal. Books will
be harder to get when they’re needed either because of delays in
locating them in the storage facility or because they have been checked
out to borrowers. Those of us who also use university libraries know how
frustrating it is to discover that the book we need immediately is
checked out or lost. And we worry about the effects of removing the
stacks that now support the glorious Rose Reading Room. More important,
perhaps, is that the CLP seems to make no mention of restoring the staff
positions that have been lost and that are critical for the functioning
of a major research institution.
One of the claims made about the CLP is that it will “democratize” the
NYPL, but that seems to be a misunderstanding of what that word means.
The NYPL is already among the most democratic institutions of its kind.
Anyone can use it; no credentials are needed to gain entry. More space,
more computers, a café, and a lending library will not improve an
already democratic institution. In fact, the absence of expert staff
will diminish the accessibility of the collections to those who aren’t
already experienced researchers, narrowing the constituency who can
profitably use the library. They will be able to borrow books, to be
sure, but they won’t be inducted into the world of archives and
collections if staff aren’t there to guide them. Also, in the age of the
web, we need, more than ever, skilled, expert librarians who can assist
us in navigating the new databases and the back alleys of cyberspace. We
understand that it is often easier to raise money by attending to
buildings (and naming them), but the real need at the NYPL is for the
preservation of a great library and the support of its staff.
We appreciate the fact that you have established a committee consisting
of some critics of the CLP to advise you. We hope you will take a hard
look at the plan you’ve been given and revise it so that the splendid
culture of research embodied by the NYPL can be maintained. We think the
money raised can be better used to preserve and extend what already
exists at 42ND street. Change is always necessary, but not of the kind
envisioned by the CLP.
Signed:

Vatican and Oxford University share ancient texts online
Digitised collections of Greek and Hebrew manuscripts and early
printed books to be made available free online
The Oxford University and Vatican libraries are to jointly digitise
1.5m pages of ancient texts and make them available free online.
The libraries said the digitised collections will centre on three
subject areas: Greek manuscripts, 15th-century printed books and
Hebrew manuscripts and early printed books.
The areas have been chosen for the strength of the collections in both
libraries and their importance for scholarship in their respective
fields.
With approximately two-thirds of the material coming from the Vatican
and the remainder from Oxford University's Bodleian libraries, the
digitisation effort will also benefit scholars by uniting materials
that have been dispersed between the collections for centuries.
"Transforming these ancient texts and images into digital form helps
transcend the limitations of time and space which have in the past
restricted access to knowledge," Sarah Thomas, director of the
Bodleian Libraries, said on Thursday.
"Scholars will be able to interrogate these documents in fresh
approaches as a result of their online availability."
The initiative has been made possible by a £2m award from the Polonsky
Foundation.
"The service to humanity which the Vatican library has accomplished
over almost six centuries, by preserving its cultural treasures and
making them available to readers, finds here a new avenue which
confirms and amplifies its universal vocation through the use of new
tools, thanks to the generosity of the Polonsky Foundation and to the
sharing of expertise with the Bodleian libraries," Holy See librarian
Cardinal Raffaele Farina said.

The Division of Preservation and Access of the National Endowment for
the Humanities will be accepting applications for grants in its
Humanities Collections and Reference Resources program. These grants
support projects to preserve and create intellectual access to such
collections as books, journals, manuscript and archival materials, maps,
still and moving images, sound recordings, art, and objects of material
culture. Awards also support the creation of reference works, online
resources, and research tools of major importance to the humanities.
Maximum awards are $350,000 for up to three years.
Eligible activities include:
* arranging and describing archival and manuscript collections;
* cataloging collections of printed works, photographs, recorded
sound, moving images, art, and material culture;
* providing conservation treatment (including deacidification)
for collections, leading to enhanced access;
* digitizing collections;
* preserving and improving access to born-digital sources;
* developing databases, virtual collections, or other electronic
resources to codify information on a subject or to provide integrated
access to selected humanities materials;
* creating encyclopedias;
* preparing linguistic tools, such as historical and
etymological dictionaries, corpora, and reference grammars;
* developing tools for spatial analysis and representation of
humanities data, such as atlases and geographic information systems
(GIS); and
* designing digital tools to facilitate use of humanities
resources.
In response to recent studies noting the deeply hidden, often perilous
condition of audio-visual sources in cultural heritage institutions,
this program encourages applications that address the preservation and
access needs of humanities collections of sound recordings and moving
images. Applicants may request funds to establish intellectual and
physical control of such materials as well as to digitize them.
HCRR Foundations
NEH is introducing a new funding opportunity this year within Humanities
Collections and Reference Resources. To help in the formative stages of
initiatives to preserve and create access to humanities collections or
to produce reference resources, grants of up to $40,000 will support
planning, assessment, and pilot activities that incorporate expertise
from a mix of professional domains. Drawing upon the cooperation of
humanities scholars and technical specialists, these projects might
encompass efforts to prepare for establishing intellectual control of
collections, to develop plans and priorities for digitizing collections,
to solidify collaborative frameworks and strategic plans for complex
digital reference resources, or to produce preliminary versions of
online collections or resources.
The new guidelines, which include sample proposal narratives, can be
found at:
http://www.neh.gov/grants/preservation/humanities-collections-and-refere
nce-resources. The application receipt deadline is July 19, 2012, with
projects beginning May 2013. All applications to NEH must be submitted
electronically through Grants.gov; see guidelines for details.
Prospective applicants seeking further information are encouraged to
contact the Division at 202-606-8570 or preservation(a)neh.gov. Program
staff will read draft proposals submitted six weeks before the deadline.
Please note that the Division is also accepting applications for three
other grant categories, with upcoming deadlines: "Preservation
Assistance Grants for Smaller Institutions" (May 1), "Research and
Development" (May 16) and "Education & Training" (June 28). Details on
these programs, as well as on the full slate of funding opportunities in
Preservation and Access, can be found at:

The RBMS Bibliographic Standards Committee has adopted the following
statement as its official position on DCRM and RDA:
The Bibliographic Standards Committee of the Rare Books and
Manuscripts Section advises catalogers using Descriptive Cataloging of
Rare Materials (DCRM) for books and serials—DCRM(B) and DCRM(S)—to
continue for the time being to follow the rules, options, and
alternatives as written. Do not attempt to incorporate elements or
practices based on Resource Description and Access (RDA) into
descriptions based on DCRM. This instruction does not apply to the
choice or form of headings in the bibliographic record, which are
outside the scope of DCRM. Bibliographic records with the description
conforming to DCRM, regardless of whether the headings are AACR2 or
RDA, should still be coded ‘a’ in LDR/18, and ‘dcrmb’ or ‘dcrms’ in
040 ‡e. A task force has been formed to make recommendations on DCRM
and RDA. Please see
http://www.rbms.info/committees/bibliographic_standards/dcrm/rda/dcrm-rda.h…
for current information on this process.
These instructions to special collections catalogers were created by
the BSC Task Force on RDA, which is being led by Deborah J. Leslie of
the Folger Shakespeare Library, Catherine Uecker of the University of
Chicago, and John Attig of the RDA Joint Steering Committee, with
assistance from representatives of all of the DCRM cataloging modules.
The Task Force will be working through the spring to compile
recommendations on DCRM and RDA, and will issue a report by Annual
2012.
Please follow the ongoing progress of the Task Force on the BSC web
page (see link above), where new developments and updates on DCRM/RDA
issues will be posted.
And for those attending the RBMS Preconference in San Diego this year,
please consider attending the BSC-sponsored discussion session, “The
Future of Rare Materials Cataloging Standards: Can DCRM and RDA Get
Along?,” which will be held on Thursday, June 21, 1:30-3:00 pm, and
moderated by Francis Lapka of the Yale Center for British Art, and
Lori Dekydtspotter of the Lilly Library.
