The future
of libraries is determined by the effective usage of modern technologies. One
of these is the computer science which is contains the digital formats. Numerous
modern technologies are applied by libraries, but numerous unexploited possibilities
are out of usage.
At the
moment the music libraries can not use totally the new possibility of computer
science because these libraries handle special documents.
One problem
is that music libraries use traditional integrated library system, which can
not handle the special request of sounding documents. Another problem is that the
digitalization procedure and digital service are much more problematic at non
traditional documents - like sounding documents ? than printed documents.
I try to
give a solving of these problems by Electronic Music Library 1.0 version. This
program is developed to handle and serve the digital format of sounding documents.
This program would be able to be a basic of an electronic and integrated music
library.
In my
lecture I present the ideas and aims of Electronic Music Library 1.0 program. I
show the way of development and the problems which are come to the surface under
the planning and programming. I demonstrate the arrangement and the functionality
of program. Finally I show the hidden possibilities of program and the possible
directions of development.
