Innovative intersectoral partnerships best practices of the Belgrade City Library Marjan Marinkovic Assistant Director Belgrade City Library [email protected] The Belgrade City Library is the largest lending library in Serbia. It is a parent library for a network of 13 municipal libraries and their branches. Its holdings consist of almost 2.000.000 items, kept in 70 facilities with a total area of 13.000 square meters. BCL has more than 150,000 users. The Library has 240 employees. The Belgrade City Library network The Library has 70 facilities: 1 central building with 4 dislocated facilities, 13 municipal libraries with 50 branch libraries, and 2 separate children's departments. The Belgrade City Library - Central building Since October 1986, the Belgrade City Library has been located at 56 Knez Mihailova Street, in the former building of the hotel Srpska kruna. The hotel was constructed around 1867 and at that time was the most modern, elegant and best equipped hotel in Belgrade. BCL - Central building Reading room The Gallery Press conference hall Periodical department Municipal library Petar Kočić – one of the most beautiful libraries in the BCL network BCL - Central building The Roman Hall - one of the most popular cultural sites in town The Roman Hall is a unique space with an archaeological site in situ and a collection of stone fragments comprising sculptures, altars, Roman tombstones (stellas) and other stone art originating from the territory of Singidunum and the Danube-region of the province of Upper Mesia, created in the period between the 2nd and 4th century. The antique ambiance of the Roman Hall is a representative gathering point, where our citizens may attend numerous cultural programs that take place every day. The idea of duality in the Mexican literature and rituals Shakespeare behind the mirror Monodrama Promotion of Kenneth White’s book House of Tides String Quartet Concert BCL partnerships The BCL has built partnership with various institutions and organizations: • City’s and municipality’s governments, • libraries in Serbia and abroad, • library associations, • educational and cultural institutions, • publishers, • foreign cultural centers and embassies located in Belgrade, • media houses, • city’s public companies, • student associations, • civil society organizations, • faculties, research institutes… Intersectoral partnerships best practices of the BCL We will speak about good practices in establishing intersectoral partnerships by referring to three successful projects that the BCL have implemented: 1) Technoteka 2) Strengthening Citizens’ Financial Literacy 3) Cherish the Serbian Language Technoteka With support from the Serbian Ministry of Culture and Information, BCL established a so called Technoteka. Serbian word for library is ‘’biblioteka’’, which comes from ancient Greek (biblion – book and theke – shelf). Thus, ‘’technoteka’’ (techno+teka) literally means a shelf with technological devices. Technoteka Technoteka is a creative space at the Children department „Neven” intended for children and youth and designed according to the latest library concept – makerspace. It is a specially designed space within the Library, equipped with various digital devices and educative tools, in which users acquire new skills and knowledge and create various projects through joint work and play and the use of modern technology. Technoteka Technoteka is equipped like similar spaces at the most developed world libraries. The users have on their disposal 3D printer, 3D scanner, 3D pencil, Lego Education robots WeDo2 and EV3, Lego story starter, virtual reality glasses Samsung Gear VR, computers, tablets... Technoteka So far, we have implemented a series of workshops for primary and secondary school children and the evaluation showed that children and young people who attended these workshops are thrilled with this space. Technoteka Since we do not have librarians with expertize to work at the Technoteka (who know to work with Lego robots and are experts in 3D modelling), we secured human resources in two ways: • by training our librarians, • by attracting volunteers through partnerships that we established. Technoteka The librarians attended two trainings: 1. For working with WeDo2 and EV3 Lego robots This training has been implemented through our partnership with the EduLab (association of citizens that deal with education of school children and educators in using Lego Edu didactic devices; this organization organized the First Lego League for Serbia). EduLab president held for several days a training for librarians and created a curriculum for workshop on this topic. Technoteka 2. For using a 3D printer This training has been implemented in partnership with a company Voxellab that we bought this equipment from. They provided free training for working with 3D printer and 3D scanner for librarians. Technoteka We attracted volunteers to run workshops on 3D modelling and printing through cooperation with the Faculty of Applied Arts – Department of Industrial Design. Two students run this workshops on a voluntary basis. We found volunteers to run workshops on Lego Mindstorms EV3 through partnership with the EduLab. Their participants from the First Lego League run these workshops.

It consisted of two segments: • training for librarians to hold financial literacy workshops and • development of a website for citizens’ financial education. The main project goal was to improve financial literacy of Serbian citizens. Financial Literacy Project workshops The primary target group of the first project segment, that is the workshops, were high school students. So, fifteen librarians from BCL network passed a two-day training in the basics of financial literacy and methodology for working with high school students. The training was led by USAID’s financial experts. Photos from the Training Financial Literacy Project workshops The goal of these student workshops was to introduce basic financial concepts – common financial products (deposits, loans, shares, insurance...), the importance of saving, risk and return in investment, the right to receive accurate information while investing, et cetera. Education also involves two specially designed budget planning exercises. In the end of the workshop, educational brochures are distributed to students. Financial Literacy Project workshops Around 190 workshops were held, for some 3,800 students (20 students per workshop, on average). The workshops attracted high interest among students, who found them unique and very useful. Financial Literacy Project website www.novcici.rs The family Novčići (Coins) takes the visitor on a tour through a world of financial services and products. The main structure of the website follows age categories – there are special sections for teenagers, students, the employed youth, family and pensioners. Each section contains different menus for the specific age group. Financial Literacy Project website www.novcici.rs On the website there are also different types of calculators – time deposit calculator, deposit calculator, loan instalment calculator, credit card calculator… These calculators are very useful tools that provide concrete assistance in different financial calculations. Also, the visitor can register and get additional online tools for creation and management of his/her own family budget. Financial Literacy Project impact The project (website and workshops) left a strong impression and is still making some impact in the community. Website has become very popular, creating interest not only of citizens throughout Serbia and region, but also of many stakeholders (Association of Serbian Banks, consumers associations, and other libraries in Serbia). Numerous calls to national and international conferences show the value of the project. The project was presented on several international conferences: among others on ALA Annual Conference and IFLA Annual Conference. Two large public libraries joined the project and expanded the realization of financial literacy workshops on the territory of Novi Sad and Niš. BCL won EIFL-PLIP innovation award 2012 (Economic wellbeing) for website Novčići. Financial Literacy Project

    Serbia in 2001 Under the Spotlight

    1 Human Rights in Transition – Serbia 2001 Introduction The situation of human rights in Serbia was largely influenced by the foregoing circumstances. Although the severe repression characteristic especially of the last two years of Milosevic’s rule was gone, there were no conditions in place for dealing with the problems accumulated during the previous decade. All the mechanisms necessary to ensure the exercise of human rights - from the judiciary to the police, remained unchanged. However, the major concern of citizens is the mere existential survival and personal security. Furthermore, the general atmosphere in the society was just as xenophobic and intolerant as before. The identity crisis of the Serb people and of all minorities living in Serbia continued. If anything, it deepened and the relationship between the state and its citizens became seriously jeopardized by the problem of Serbia’s undefined borders. The crisis was manifest with regard to certain minorities such as Vlachs who were believed to have been successfully assimilated. This false belief was partly due to the fact that neighbouring Romania had been in a far worse situation than Yugoslavia during the past fifty years. In considerably changed situation in Romania and Serbia Vlachs are now undergoing the process of self identification though still unclear whether they would choose to call themselves Vlachs or Romanians-Vlachs. Considering that the international factor has become the main generator of change in Serbia, the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia believes that an accurate picture of the situation in Serbia is absolutely necessary. It is essential to establish the differences between Belgrade and the rest of Serbia, taking into account its internal diversities.

Currently it has more than 700 members. It was founded in 1975 and is registered in Paris. It is a non-profit orga- nization not engaging in any political activity. The purpose of the Association is to promote and foster, by every possible means, scholarly activities related to Chinese Studies in Europe. The EACS serves not only as the scholarly rep- resentative of Chinese Studies in Europe but also as contact or- ganization for academic matters in this field. One of the Association’s major activities are the biennial con- ferences hosted by various centres of Chinese Studies in diffe- rent European countries. The papers presented at these confer- ences comprise all fields from traditional Sinology to studies of modern China. In addition, summer schools and workshops are organized under the auspices of the EACS. The Association car- ries out scholarly projects on an irregular basis. Since 1995 the EACS has provided Library Travel Grants to support short visits for research in major sinological libraries in Western Europe. The scheme is funded by the Chiang Ching-Kuo Foundation and destined for PhD students and young scholars, primarily from Eastern European countries. The EACS furthers the careers of young scholars by awarding a Young Scholar Award for outstanding research. A jury selects the best three of the submitted papers, which are then presented at the next bi-an- nual conference.

In an era of growing global interdependence and compression of history, any sort of self-isolation might not only result in provincialization, peripheraliza- tion, or self-marginalization, but may also imperil the very survival of nations and their authentic cultures. In the history of mankind, ethno-contact zones have usually represented porous borders permeable to both conflict and cooperation. Unproductive conflict has been, by default, destructive, while the fruitful in- tersection and intertwining of cultures has strengthened their capacities for creative (self)elevation. During all times, especially desperate and dehuma- nizing ones, cultural mutuality has opened the doors of ennoblement, i.e., offered the possibility of bringing meaning to the dialectic of the conflict between the universal material (usually self-destructive) horizontal and the specific spiritual (auto-transcending) vertical. It would be naïve and pretentious to expect any journal (including this one) to resolve these major issues.

There are many faces of this curiosity. Some have left traces of their interest in the form of collections of Egyptianized objects like Freud, who saw a common ground between psychoanalysis, which he founded, and archaeology, as they both search for deeper layers: one standing for personal memory and an- other for collective history.1 Some have purchased works of art that were made for them in “an Egyptian style”, and yet others, like architects, artists and writers, have produced their own works as acts of reception of ancient Egyptian art.

    Introduction: Is every country too small for big ideas?1 Publication “(Re)positioning the region of Southeast Europe through culture” stems from the research conducted by the Creative Europe Desk Serbia within its Forum in 2017, the topic of which was exactly regional cooperation. Cre- ative Europe Forum 2018 shifts its focus on celebrating European cultural heritage, at the same time being related to the Republic of Bulgaria presiding over the Council of the European Union and dealing with EU integration of the Western Balkans. Due to this, an important segment of the CE Forum 2018 deals with regional cooperation in the feld of culture, and also cooperation of the region with the European Union. Bearing in mind the initiative of presiding over the EU Council has a clear political dimension, the debates during CE Forum 2018 will support future refections on the implementation of cultural strategy of the European Union. Our ambition is for the results presented in the publication “(Re)positioning the region of Southeast Europe through culture” to become a relevant segment in the implementation process of cultural strategy. The research was conducted in order to defne recommendations for the de- velopment of the region of Southeast Europe through culture. The aim was to analyse the presence of regional artists in relevant international manifesta- tions, the most important projects and initiatives from the domain of regional cooperation, strategic documents and legal frameworks of regional coopera- tion, and content of promotional touristic campaigns. The latter is especially important in the context of choosing content and the manner in which we present the region in the European and the international frameworks.
