The Libraries of the Future project was established to help those running academic libraries to plan for the future. The project produced three scenarios which represent possible futures for higher education in the UK: the Wild West the Beehive, and the Walled Garden. These are not meant as predictions but as tools for academic libraries to use to review and hone their organisational strategies.

Biblioteca Libertaria Francisco Ferrer - Genova

Tutti coloro che debbono inviare materiale o richieste alla Biblioteca via posta ordinaria sono pregati di inoltrare le loro spedizioni alla casella postale num. 1819 Genova Centro intestata a: Circolo Biblioteca Libertaria F.Ferrer. E' molto importante per evitare che la propria posta venga perduta o danneggiata in fase di spedizione e consegna, in considerazione dei vari problemi (noti e meno noti) a cui vanno incontro le spedizioni in genere. In particolar modo, purtroppo, quelle indirizzate o provenienti da situazioni di movimento, senza dimenticarsi mai, che sono sottoposte alle particolari cure e attenzioni dell'apparato censorio e di controllo. Indirizzando i vostri materiali e le vostre comunicazioni alla casella postale di cui sopra contribuirete a limitare i danni. Non è molto ma qualcosa in attesa di atti più concreti verso un mondo non fondato su paranoia, controllo, censura e coercizione per tutt* i vivent*. http://www.ecn.org/ferrer/

The 20 Most Beautiful Bookstores in the World

http://flavorwire.com/254434/the-20-most-beautiful-bookstores-in-the-world [ Editor's note: In celebration of the holidays, we're counting down the top 12 Flavorwire features of 2012. This post, at #1, was originally published January 31. ] With Amazon slowly taking over the publishing world and bookstores closing left and right, things can sometimes seem a little grim for the brick and mortar booksellers of the world. After all, why would anyone leave the comfort of their couch to buy a book when with just a click of a button, they could have it delivered to their door? Well, here’s why: bookstores so beautiful they’re worth getting out of the house (or the country) to visit whether you need a new hardcover or not. We can’t overestimate the importance of bookstores — they’re community centers, places to browse and discover, and monuments to literature all at once — so we’ve put together a list of the most beautiful bookstores in the world, from Belgium to Japan to Slovakia.

Amazing libraries around the world [PICS]

Salt Lake City Public Library With music playing on every floor, an art gallery, a firm “no censorship” policy on their computers with Internet access, and a cafe serving coffee and sandwiches, this is not the library I grew up getting shushed at. Photo: Pedro Szekely

5.1.12: London bookshops do not disappoint | New York Social Diary

by Delia von Neuschatz Chain stores, Amazon and eBooks haven’t managed to kill off the independent bookshops ... not in London anyway. Though inevitably, there have been some closings, a good number of small (and not so small) independently-owned bookshops continue to delight bibliophiles from all over the world. http://www.newyorksocialdiary.com/node/1908003

About

http://calibre-ebook.com/about calibre started life on 31 October, 2006, soon after the release of the SONY PRS-500, the first e-ink based reader to be sold commercially in the US. At the time, I was a graduate student, with a lot of time on my hands. The PRS-500 did not work at all with Linux, my operating system of choice, so I decided to reverse engineer the USB protocol that it used, to get it working on Linux. This was accomplished with the help of the fine folks over at mobileread.com and calibre was born, albeit named libprs500 . At the time there were no satisfactory tools to convert content into the LRF format, used by the SONY reader, so I decided to implement a converter to convert the most popular e-book formats to LRF. This converter proved to be wildly popular and far better than the (mostly non-existent) offerings from SONY.
