Su objetivo es proporcionar a los responsables de la toma de decisiones y a los profesionales que trabajan en las instituciones culturales en el ámbito local (especialmente a los archivos, bibliotecas públicas y museos) un resumen conciso pero de relevancia sobre el estado de la cuestión en la utilización de las nuevas tecnologías. Las Pautas pretenden explicar, de forma clara y concisa, la manera en que se pueden aplicar estas tecnologías al desarrollo de unos servicios digitales que estén diseñados para atender las necesidades reales de los usuarios - sociales, culturales y económicas – y también pretenden convertirse en un estímulo para la creatividad y su mayor implantación entre nuestra comunidad profesional. Además se pretende clarificar el modo en que los servicios culturales locales pueden llegar a desempeñar un papel fundamental a la hora de llevar a cabo los grandes programas europeos, como es el caso de los objetivos marcados por el Plan de Acción para la Europa Electrónica [1]. Las Pautas son una continuación de las redactadas para la Red Temática PULMAN dentro del 5º Programa Marco [2], y que se publicaron entre el 2002/03 y llegaron a traducirse a 26 idiomas. Las Pautas CALIMERA se han organizado siguiendo una estructura parecida. La diferencia más importante es que las actuales Pautas no sólo actualizan la versión anterior, sino que además amplían su radio de acción al ocuparse de los servicios que prestan los archivos y los museos, que se añaden a los que ofrecen las bibliotecas públicas. Al igual que las producidas por PULMAN, van a traducirse a numerosos idiomas europeos durante el primer trimestre de 2005. Todas estas versiones estarán accesibles en la sede Web del proyecto CALIMERA [3]. Se han diferenciado 23 Pautas en total, que se estructuran en grandes grupos que abarcan temas Sociales, de Gestión y Técnicos. Para que su utilización no presente ninguna dificultad para los responsables de la toma de decisiones, que siempre disponen de poco tiempo, también se

Title Fr Patrick Meany and the Dr Keating Society, 1860-1865 Author(s) Ó Macháin, Pádraig Publication date 2011 Original citation Ó Macháin, P. (2011) 'Fr Patrick Meany and the Dr Keating Society, 1860-1865'. Studia Hibernica, 37 :163-194. Type of publication Article (peer-reviewed) Item downloaded http://hdl.handle.net/10468/919 from Downloaded on 2021-09-26T23:41:58Z Fr Patrick Meany and the Dr Keating Society, 1860 – 1865 The history of Irish-language publication in the nineteenth century is marked by the varying successes of learned societies and religious bodies, and of enterprising individuals throughout the country. The latter is typified by the efforts of people such as Pádraig Denn, James Scurry, Thomas Swanton, Richard D’Alton and Conchubhar Mac Suibhne, while others such as Robert MacAdam, Philip Barron and John O’Daly were enabled, through personal resources and business acumen to operate on somewhat larger scales. Both organisations and individuals fed off the Irish manuscript tradition and off some of its remaining exponents, and, in their publications, largely reflected the continuity of emphasis, from script to print, on productions in the literary language. One of the more enigmatic of the societies was the Dr Keating Society, founded in Co. Waterford in 1861. Though planned on an ambitious scale, and modelled in its organisation on the Ossianic Society, it was to prove a disappointment to those involved. Lack of editorial clarity and methodology was compounded by health problems that afflicted the prime mover of the Society, Fr Patrick Meany (1816–89).

  • Like a Phoenix, Cork City Library Rises from the Ashes . . . Again
    January/February 2011 #309 Like a Phoenix, Cork City Library rises from the Ashes . again December 11 1920 fell on a Saturday, and fittingly it did so again in 2010. Fittingly, because on Saturday December 11 last, Cork City Libraries remembered the destruction of the city’s Carnegie Free Library on that date in 1920. The emphasis, however, was on the subsequent rebuilding of the library collections. Firstly, in a procession led by Lord Mayor Cllr. Michael O’Connell, more than one hundred llibrary users of all ages each carried a book from the site of the old to the site of the new library, in a symbolic re-enactment of the Lord Mayor Cllr. Michael O’Connell leads the procession off from rebuilding of the library collections. The books City Hall were from those donated from around the world following the destruction of the Carnegie Library. The procession left the Civic Offices on Anglesea Street and made its way to the City Library, Grand Parade (the Civic Offices are built on the site of the old Carnegie Library). The Band of the First Southern Brigade marched before the procession, and serving and retired members of the Fire Service also took part, in recognition of their predecessors’ role in fighting the fires on that night of the 11th and morning of December 12 1920. The second part of the remembrance began when the participants reached the City Library. The Lord Mayor read from the Marchers arrive at the City Library, with Lord Mayor Cllr Michael O’Connell centre historic pamphlet Who burnt Cork city, published immediately after the fire (in January 1921), followed by Ms.
