Libraries in Greece

by KALAMOS BOOKS

When looking for some information I came across this thesis from 1999 Zachos, George Greek university libraries in the European environment: a comparative assessment. United Kingdom. Loughborough University of Technology. School of Humanities and Social Sciences. Department of Information and Library Studies it is available online here https://www.didaktorika.gr/eadd/handle/10442/11067 I discovered this item through the web site at EKT which lists online databases available in Greece http://www.ekt.gr/el/library/databases-by-alpha one of which is this list of doctoral theses https://www.didaktorika.gr/eadd/ <<Welcome to the National Archive of Doctoral Theses The National Archive of Doctoral Theses (EADD) concentrates on the total of doctoral theses elaborated in the Greek University Institutions, as well as the doctoral theses prepared by Greek Doctors at University Institutions abroad >> However it seems that VERY FEW theses of potential interest produced outside of Greece have been listed there. It might be useful if there was an attempt to get more theses logged in to this data base to make them available to scholars in general, and - more specifically - that they be also easily available in Greece! In addition this database should, perhaps, be more widely known so as to expose more works of Greek scholarship to the rest of the world!

The International Conference on Libraries and Information (IFLA) will take place in Athens during August 2019. https://www.citmagazine.com/article/1456018/athens-host-international-confe… The 85th International Conference on Libraries and Information (IFLA) will be held in Athens during August 2019. The opening of a new national library building and Athens’ designation as 2018 World Book Capital was taken into consideration as part of the IFLA bid. The Athens Convention and Visitors Bureau (ACVB) will host the event, with the news coming on the heels of an announcement that Athens will also host of the 2018 ICOMIA World Marinas Conference (IWMC) in October. Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos said: "It is a privilege for our country to host the IFLA Congress 2019 in Athens." Mayor of Athens, Georgios Kaminis, welcomed the decision by the Committee of the International Federation, which he said was "aligned with his strategic investment in culture as a driver for local growth". According to the prestigious International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA) rankings, Athens has climbed several places to within the 25 most popular destinations in conference tourism. -- June Samaras KALAMOS BOOKS (For Books about Greece) 2020 Old Station Rd Streetsville,Ontario Canada L5M 2V1 Tel : 905-542-1877 E-mail : kalamosbooks(a)gmail.com www.kalamosbooks.com http://kalamosb.alibrisstore.com/ http://www.antiqbook.com/books/bookseller.phtml/kal
