Lithuania The main demographic indicators show E-mail: particularly unfavourable trends in sparsely [email protected] populated territories (SPTs) and deviate markedly from the countrywide average. Gintare· Pociute-Sereikiene- · · To confirm these statements, this study Lithuanian Social Research Centre presents the changes in the demographic and Institute of Human Geography and socioeconomic situation in Lithuania during Demography, the period of restored independence. Lithuania The authors place special emphasis on rural E-mail: [email protected] SPTs of the country, and use statistical data as the main instrument to present the tendencies of sociospatial development. The analysis shows that Lithuania is experiencing territorial polarisation, with the greatest gap being between the major cities and the regions in Southern and North-Eastern Lithuania. Additionally, the results indicate that in the meantime, the western and central regions became the ‘generators’ of demographic and socioeconomic problems due to increasing depopulation. The sharpest results of depopulation are the decline of social networks and, simultaneously, the growing number of social problems. This situation increases Keywords: residents’ social and territorial exclusion, depopulation, meaning that institutions are receding from socioeconomic decline, those who remain in rural peripheral regions, sparsely populated territories, leaving them to fight the consequences of peripheralisation, peripheralisation alone without any clear Lithuania regional policy strategies.

  • LITHUANIAN LIBRARIES in 2012 2,633 Libraries, Or by 61 Library
    LITHUANIAN LIBRARIES IN 2012 2,633 libraries, or by 61 library less than in 2011, submitted data to the Lithuanian Integral Library Information System (LIBIS) statistical module. At the end of the last year, the number of physical units in the total Lithuanian library stock amounted to 106,782,659, or by 905.8 thousand more than in 2011. During the year, the number of registered users in country libraries was 1,360,942, or by 37,557 less than in the previous year. The number of visits decreased by 933.2 thousand; the total number of visits at the end of the year comprised 25,428,375. The number of loans keeps decreasing every year. In 2012 it was 34,985,168 physical units, or by 859.9 thousand physical units less than in 2011. Since 2008 the number of loans decreased by more than 6.3 million physical units, in average by 1.27 million physical units annually. Decreasing of the main indicators is determined by various factors – first of all, year by year shrinking library network, increasing emigration of potential users, general decrease of number of inhabitants in the country, increasing number of part- time workers in the libraries, or number of libraries without employees. Part-time workers make up 24.6 percent of the whole number of professional librarians. Traditional library activities are being changed by computerization of the libraries, new technologies and possibilities emerging, online access to information resources. At the end of the year, 93.8 percent of libraries had computers, 92.4 percent had internet access.

It analyzes the representations of four ethnic groups in 2000 and 2001: Roma, Jews, Russians and Poles. The paper also explores how the topics of ethnicity and homosexuality have been presented in the mass media as well as the regimes of representation that the Lithuanian media uses in the coverage of ethnic and sexual minorities. The chapter concludes with policy oriented recommen- dations aimed at promoting more objective popular media representations of minor- ity groups. 1. Introduction The media plays a large part in the formation of positive and negative images and self-images of minorities. According to B. S. Greenberg, “[R]esearchers have found that communication about minorities is value laden and that audiences internalize these values in a number of ways” (Greenberg 1986, pp.165-188). Therefore, it is important to ask what minority and majority audiences learn about themselves and each other from the media. How are ethnic and sexual minorities portrayed in the mass media? What effects do those portrayals have on minority and majority groups? Issues of media access and representation for sexual and ethnic minorities in Lithuania remain paramount as invisibility and marginalization work against numerous groups including gays, lesbians, ethnic minorities and women.
