Die National Central Library (NCL) Taiwan begann 2012 an verschiedenen Universitäten weltweit „Taiwan Resource Centre for Chinese Studies“ zu etablieren, um die internationale Zusammenarbeit auf dem Gebiet der sinologischen Forschung zu vertiefen. Hierbei geht es um die Förderung des internationalen Austausches auf dem Gebiet der Wissenschaft und Kultur sowie den Aufbau gemeinsamer Forschungs- und Literaturdatenbanken. Gleichzeitig ist der NCL an der internationalen Wahrnehmung und Anerkennung der Errungenschaften taiwanesischer Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Sinologie gelegen, die sie seit 1981 aktiv fördert.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Agents climatic, biological and human action are the main responsible for deterioration of historic buildings, thus the growing concern with the preservation and maintenance of these buildings. This study was conducted at the Central Library Manuel Marques de Souza - Conde de Porto Alegre, located at the Federal University of Santa Maria and its main objective is to identify fungal contamination at the site, which has been a cause of biodeterioration incident in the building. For this work were discussed theoretical frameworks relevant to the subject, photographic surveys, as well as the use of a methodology aimed at collecting fungi, serving as a subsidy for the identification and characterization of microorganisms that are biodeteriorando the building. This was followed by a graphical representation of the pathologies of the building, through maps Damage. After the identification and evaluation of biological agents that cause biodeteriorações that are hitting the building, the data were tabulated to assess the fungal contamination of the Central Library UFSM, which can cause deterioration and also cause disease in users and occupants of that environment. / Agentes climáticos, biológicos e a ação do homem são os principais responsáveis pela degradação das edificações históricas, com isso a crescente preocupação com a conservação e manutenção desses prédios. Este trabalho foi realizado na Biblioteca Central Manuel Marques de Souza Conde de Porto Alegre, localizada na Universidade Federal de Santa Maria e tem como objetivo principal identificar a contaminação fúngica no local, que vem sendo uma das causas da biodeterioração incidente na edificação. Para a realização deste trabalho, foram abordados referenciais teóricos pertinentes ao assunto, levantamentos fotográficos, como também a utilização de uma metodologia voltada à coleta de fungos, servindo de subsídio para a identificação e caracterização de microrganismos que estejam biodeteriorando a edificação. Posteriormente, foi realizada a representação gráfica das patologias do prédio através de Mapas de Danos. Após a identificação e a avaliação dos agentes biológicos causadores das biodeteriorações, que estão atingindo a edificação, os dados foram tabulados a fim de avaliar a contaminação fúngica da Biblioteca Central da UFSM, que podem causar deterioração como também causar doenças nos usuários e ocupantes desse ambiente.

Die DZB und die „Blindenselbsthilfe“ gründeten mit Hilfe des Bundesministeriums für Arbeit und Soziales das Projekt „DaCapo“. Ziel ist es, neben der Produktion wichtiger Standardwerke für Blinde die Verbreitung der Braille-Notenschrift zu fördern. Die Braille-Notenschrift ist eine ertastbare Notenschrift, die aus erhabenen Punkten, wie bei der Blindenschrift, besteht. Die normalen Schwarzschrift-Noten werden technisch bearbeitet und mithilfe einer neu entwickelten Software in Braille-Noten übersetzt.
