Culture and Sport
CULTURE AND SPORT Culture and Sport Eastern and western cultures have co-existed in Macao for over 400 years. A wide variety of cultural traditions, languages, values, religious beliefs, and customs have all existed side by side and influenced one another. Out of this melting pot, a regional culture unique to Macao has gradually developed into its present richness. Macao’s culture is thus a diverse mixture, with traditional Chinese culture as its heart, and it has assimilated Western, particularly Portuguese, cultural influences in perfect harmony. Following its policy of promoting Chinese culture while preserving the unique pluralistic cultural heritage of Macao, the Government has hosted various cultural and artistic activities invited art troupes from mainland China and overseas, as well as Macao, to perform. These have created opportunities for audiences to learn more about the history, society, and culture of different regions, as well as enhancing cultural exchange and the quality of cultural life of Macao’s residents. Cultural Affairs Bureau The Cultural Affairs Bureau is a Government department that sets out the Government’s key objectives in cultural matters. The bureau is responsible for protecting cultural heritage, giving guidance on aesthetic appreciation, supporting community organisations, nurturing talent in arts and culture, developing local cultural industries, as well as organising cultural entertainment programmes, such as concerts, exhibitions, seminars, music classes, dance, drama courses, Macao International Parade, Macao International Music Festival, Macao Arts Festival, Macao City Fringe Festival, China Cultural Heritage Day, Macao Youth Music Competition and Macao Annual Visual Arts Exhibition. It also provides subsidies for different cultural and art programmes as well as scholarships to support the publication of research and advanced studies about arts. -
National Bibliographies: the Chinese Experience
Date 2nd version : 04/07/2006 National Bibliographies: the Chinese Experience Ben Gu Director Acquisitions & Cataloging Department / Online Library Cataloging Center National Library of China Meeting: 109 Bibliography Simultaneous Interpretation: Yes WORLD LIBRARY AND INFORMATION CONGRESS: 72ND IFLA GENERAL CONFERENCE AND COUNCIL 20-24 August 2006, Seoul, Korea http://www.ifla.org/IV/ifla72/index.htm Abstract The printed version of the China National Bibliography was first published in 1987 and ceased to be published in 1994. It is replaced by the online services provided by the National Library of China. Because of the present situation of legal deposit policies in China, the national bibliography has narrow coverage. There is another kind of “national bibliography” with wider coverage, but not done by librarians. In China, there are also problems of different forms of name authorities and different MARC records. The National Library of China is considering a National Union Catalog to improve the national bibliographical services. 1 National Bibliographies: the Chinese Experience / by Ben Gu, National Library of China China National Bibliography: History China National Bibliography (中国 国家书目(1985)) was first published in 1987. It was compiled by the National Bibliography Compiling Committee under the National Library of China. It included 17,000 titles, covering all the monographs published in 1985, some monographs published in 1984 and some new and renamed periodicals. An index volume was also published at the same time1. The printed version of the China National Bibliography ceased to be published in 1994 because of the financial problem. Now, it is almost impossible to publish a printed version of China National Bibliography, because: 1. -

May 2020 Share Tweet Forward Editorial by Ton van Vlimmeren, EBLIDA President With this fourth special EBLIDA Newsletter issue dedicated to European libraries in the face of the Covid-19 crisis, EBLIDA is releasing the last chapter in the series of country profiles. Altogether, seventeen countries have been covered: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Previous issues were published on on 3rd, 23rd and 25th April. The measures, practices and potential services that were initiated during the crisis and could be pursued in one way or another in the post-Covid 19 age, are summarised in the Report “Preparing a European Library Agenda for the post-Covid 19 age.” This Report aims to keep separate library activities based on contingent factors – the Covid-19 crisis - which hopefully will not replicate, from library activities and trends that will become permanent in the post-Covid 19 age. More extensive information will be provided in the next Newsletter issue, to be published mid-May. All libraries in Europe are already open or are starting to re-open, in the weeks to come. We are ready to publish your experiences in how you managed the transition successfully. / Do not hesitate to send your witness account and your feed back to the EBLIDA Secretariat Subscribe Past Issues Translate RSS ([email protected]). -

Recreation, Sport and the Arts
367 Chapter 19 Recreation, Sport and the Arts Hong Kong is well known for its hard- working people, but it is not an all-work- no-play city. People spend time in a wide variety of recreational, sport and cultural activities, ranging from ‘tai chi’ to yoga, football to rugby, and international arts festivals to home-grown performances. Hong Kong offers many opportunities for people to unwind. Recreation, sport and the arts provide an opportunity for people in Hong Kong to improve their quality of life. The Government helps to nurture an environment in which creative freedom, a pluralist approach to the development of the arts, sporting excellence and recreation can thrive. Government policies on matters concerning sport, recreation, culture and heritage are coordinated by the Home Affairs Bureau. Organisations that help to draw up these policies include the Hong Kong Sports Commission, the Hong Kong Sports Institute, the former Culture and Heritage Commission, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council and the Antiquities Advisory Board. The Hong Kong Sports Institute Limited was set up as a delivery agent to help develop sports in Hong Kong with special emphasis on training athletes for high- performance sports. In January 2005, the Government established the Sports Commission to advise on all matters related to sports development. The commission oversees the Elite Sports Committee, the Major Sports Events Committee and the Community Sports Committee which give advice on different aspects of sporting activities. The new advisory structure is a milestone for sports development in Hong Kong. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), an executive arm of the Home Affairs Bureau, provides leisure and cultural services to the community, preserves its cultural heritage, beautifies its physical environment, and fosters synergy among sports, cultural and community organisations. -
