Digitization Registry CZ
Lhoták, Martin ; Foltýn, T.
The Digitization registry of the Czech Republic is national project, which is developed under the cooperation of National Library of Czech Republic, Academy of Sciences Library with close cooperation with other partners from Czech libraries. The aim of the national registry of the digitized documents is to avoid unwanted duplicities during digitization process and to enable sharing the digitization results across the Czech Republic. The Digitization Registry could also provide to the system users tools for digitization workflow management to simplify the way of the monitoring digitization process. The solution could also serve to end users as the central access point to digitized documents. Very important is also the fact that it cooperates with library catalogue systems as well as with digital document repositories. At the end of 2010 there were 39 thousand records in the Registry. National Library will guarantee regular operation of the Registry.

Beránková, Hana ; Brabcová, Markéta

Aside from the research possibilities that the database offers, the article is also focused on the overall characteristic of the mentioned group of signed illustrations, with regard to developmental changes of book illustrations over the course of the 16th through the 18th century, and to certain problems when deciphering the symbolic language of illustrations in the given period.

Open Access and institutional repository : approach of the Czech Academy of Science and link-up to international projects
Lhoták, Martin ; Chýla, Roman
The Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (ASCR) is a signatary of the Berlin Declaration since the last year. In April 2009 the Scientific Council of the Academy stepped forward and recommended in a statement addressed to the newly elected management of the Academy to: formulate ASCR policy for OA; finish preparation of the central institutional repository of ASCR and use it for OA; actively use ASCR’s potential as a unified and strong organization for effective development of an information infrastructure for R&D and determine concrete rules for access to infrastructures built in the frame of “OP VaVpI EU” projects. The Czech Academy of Sciences Library (CASL) has been invited to participate in the process and actively contribute to the OA case in the future. There are a few projects with central impact that concerns OA. We describe two of them in the paper.

Do we evaluate the research profesionally?
Ráb, Petr ; Kadlecová, Ivana
The science and research undoubtedly are the most powerful tools of human civilization and the expenses allocated in belong to optimal investment at all. The identification of top research areas, organization, teams and/or indviduals has therefore crucial importance for allocation of financial resources. The evaluation of research quality is then key factor. However, the evaluation of research quality and output is a complex problem due to nature of research processes. The research achievement has two inherent components: quality (= what was done) and quantity (= how much was done). While the first component is evaluated by peer review systems, the later is based on database with scientific informations nad/or derived from them indicators. Quantity data (indicators) are always core parameters of evaluation systems, frequently used without peer review.This contributions dealst with some problems with databases and indicators application in R,T and D evaluations.

Contribution towards the Study of Secret Non-Catholicism in the 18th Century: the Estate of Nové Město na Moravě
Tůmová, Anna
Based on sources published in the periodical Selský archiv in 1929, the author concentrates on the religious situation on the estate of Nové Město na Moravě in the 18th century. The author concentrates especially on an analysis of records of the declaration of faith of non-Catholics in Nové Město most of whom describe themselves as Reformed following the publication of the Tolerance Decree in 1781. Declaration records contain doctrinal elements specific to the region in question and give some idea of non-Catholics devotion in the 18th century. Analysis shows how difficult it was to categorise and assign particular beliefs to any existing Protestant denomination since elements of both the Catholic and Protestant faiths were evident as well as non-orthodox viewpoints which are hard to classify and which evolved in this region during the time of pursuit of secret non-Catholics.
