This diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of shared economy and describes it both on a wide scale and in specific sectors of its use in the social and health sphere. This trend inspired the introduction of a co-working concept to the market which is also described in the theoretical part of the thesis. The theoretical framework of the diploma thesis follows the practical part consisting of interviews with the founder of a co-working centre in Finland, with the executive director of a co-working centre in the Czech Republic, and with two users who have experience with this service in our country and abroad. Qualitative data from semi- structured interviews was a source in the creation of a business plan for the co-working centre, which is the aim of the diploma thesis. At the end of the diploma thesis, there is a shortened methodological guideline for establishing a co-working space. Keywords: shared economy, sharing, co-working, digitization, health and social services, desk

This diploma thesis deals with digital libraries of Czech regional libraries. Based on the available sources of the literature and the questionnaire survey, digital libraries, which are built by regional libraries, are introduced. At the beginning of the thesis is a terminological overview, together with digitization and digitization workflow itself. Then follows a description of the personal layout in digital libraries as well as various activities and standards of digital libraries. The thesis is supplemented by a description of the individual Czech digital libraries, which are built by regional libraries. The thesis also contains the results of a questionnaire survey among regional libraries and outlines the problem areas of regional digital libraries.

Under the heading of “Compliance in Science” we want to tackle an issue on our own behalf. Since its first edition, CEJ has been published as an open-access journal.

Background and research issue: Digitization has changed the conditions for how an effective audit can or should be carried out. Many researchers argue that the development and use of technologies affect the work of the auditor in the audit process. There are also studies that indicate that the application of technical solutions cuts to a greater extent in large agencies than in small agencies.  Purpose: The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of how digitalisation has changed the auditor's work during the audit process and to identify the differences between large and small audit firms when it comes to digitalisation in audit.  Method: This study is based on a qualitative method in the form of semi-structured interviews with authorized auditors.  Framework: The framework consists of theories and models found in the audit research, basic concepts and previous research.  Empiricism: The empirical data consist of material collected from eleven interviews.  Results: The use of data analysis has enabled the auditors to gain a better understanding of the audited company. Today, a deeper analysis can be performed on a large amount of data and it is also possible to review all material and a complete set of data will be the subject of the selection. The result of the study also indicates that larger firms are developing their own digital systems. / Bakgrund och problemformulering: Digitaliseringen har förändrat förutsättningarna för huren effektiv revision kan eller bör genomföras. Flera forskare hävdar att utvecklingen och användningen av tekniska lösningar påverkar revisorns arbete i revisionsprocessen. Det finns även studier som pekar på att tillämpningen av tekniska lösningar sker i större utsträckning i stora byråer än i små byråer. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att skapa en förståelse kring hur digitaliseringen har förändrat revisorns arbete i revisionsprocessen samt identifiera på vilket sätt digitaliseringen i revisionen skiljer sig mellan större och mindre byråer. Metod: Studien bygger på en kvalitativ metod i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer med auktoriserade revisorer. Referensram: Referensramen utgörs av teorier och modeller som återfinns i revisionsforskningen, grundläggande begrepp samt tidigare forskning. Empiri: Det empiriska underlaget utgörs av insamlat material från elva semistrukturerade intervjuer med auktoriserade revisorer Slutsats: Nyttjandet av dataanalyser har gjort att revisorerna kan få en bättre förståelse för det reviderade företaget. Idag kan djupare analyser genomföras på en större mängd data och det är dessutom möjligt att granska allt material och en komplett uppsättning data blir föremål för urvalet. Resultatet i studien tyder även på att större revisionsbyråer ligger i framkant när det kommer till att utveckla egna digitala system.

The present work examines the attitude of pensioners in relation to today's digitizing. A variety of digital devices have been added and have become part of many people's everyday lives. The main purpose of the present work is to investigate how a number of pensioners relate to today's digitization. A qualitative method was considered to be best suited for the job and six semi-structured interviews were conducted with pensioners. The gathered empirical evidence showed that pensioners relate to today's digitizing in different ways, both positive and negative approaches. There was also a need for further research in the field of digitizing, as it is being developed at a regular basis. / Föreliggande arbete berör pensionärers förhållningsätt till dagens digitalisering. En rad olika digitala enheter har tillkommit och blivit en del i mångas vardag. Det huvudsakliga syftet med föreliggande arbete är att undersöka huruvida ett antal pensionärer förhåller sig till dagens digitalisering. En kvalitativ metod ansågs vara bäst lämpad för arbetet och sex semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med pensionärer. Den insamlade empirin visade att pensionärer förhåller sig till dagens digitalisering på olika sätt, både positiva och negativa förhållningssätt. Det visade sig också finnas ett behov av vidare forskning inom området digitalisering, då det utvecklas med jämna mellanrum.

Dagens samhälle blir alltmer digitaliserat och företag och offentlig sektor möter hela tiden nya utmaningar. Att förhålla sig aktuell med digitaliseringen och för att ta hänsyn till de behov och intresse som finns i samhället behövs en hög digital mognad. Digitala mognad är centralt för att upprätthålla verksamheter aktuella och effektiva. Studien lyfter upp vad digital mognad är och genom en fallstudie och semi-strukturerade intervjuer förklarar och undersöker den digitala mognaden av en kommun i Sverige. Studien använder definitionen av digital mognad i enlighet med Kane et al. (2015) som beskriver att det finns en tydlig digitaliseringsstrategi, ett ledarskap och en kultur som främjar förändring. Studien ämnar undersöka den digitala mognaden i en mellanstor svensk kommun. Resultatet av studien analyseras utifrån ett konceptuellt ramverk som är baserat på tidigare forskning och diskuteras gentemot forskning och teorier. Studiens resultat visar att det delvis finns en digital mognad i kommunen men att det inte finns en definierad strategi som förklarar vägen dit och är kommunicerad utöver hela organisationen. Studien visar även att den undersökta enheten har mycket pågående arbete när det kommer till digitalisering / Today's society is becoming increasingly digitalised and businesses and the public sector are constantly facing new challenges. To keep up with digitalisation and to take into account the needs and interests of society, a high level of digital maturity is needed. Digital maturity is central to keeping businesses current and efficient. The study highlights what digital maturity is and through a case study and semi-structured interviews explains and examines the digital maturity of a municipality in Sweden. The study uses the definition of digital maturity in line with Kane et al. (2015) who describe the existence of a clear digitalisation strategy, leadership and a culture that promotes change. The study aims to investigate the digital maturity of a medium-sized Swedish municipality. The results of the study are analysed using a conceptual framework based on previous research and discussed against research and theories. The results of the study show that there is partial digital maturity in the municipality but that there is no defined strategy that explains the way there and is communicated throughout the organization. The study also shows that the investigated unit has a lot of work in progress when it comes to digitisation.

At the beginning of the year 2000 new Czech funding mechanism for the development of the libraries was established by the Czech Government. Probably neither one from past politicians, nor librarians, did expect those days, that this funding program would be still open in 2018 and would be more and more important for many fields of librarianship, including the preservation and digitization of newspapers endangered by the degradation of the paper. Such a long time of more than 15 years is great opportunity to evaluate all the benefits and changes of the supported activities, practices and impacts of the program. The aim of this paper is to provide the information about the more than 15 years history of the VISK 7 funding mechanism, describe achieved results and benefits, and share the reached best practices including the main developed open-source tools.

Mass-digitised newspapers offer researchers, academic and non-academic, a readily-accessible and invaluable resource for all sorts of historical enquiries. Research of print-medium newspapers, even as reproduced as microfiche or similar formats, traditionally entails the relatively close reading of individual articles, in order to extrapolate the information pertinent to the research question pursued. The re-medialisation of historical print newspapers into digital format, however, opens up new analytical avenues that allow the methodologically-savvy researcher to extrapolate information across a large number of texts with the help of approaches developed for text mining and information retrieval. The question for which this paper will present possible answers is: how can libraries that hold digitised newspaper collections support these distant reading-approaches? In answering that question, the paper will focus on three interlinked areas with potential roles for libraries and present best practice examples. These areas are (1) technical infrastructure, (2) methodological knowhow and (3) analytical tools: 1. Most research libraries have accepted their key role in providing a digital research infrastructure and are increasingly engaged in actively developing the constituent parts of said infrastructure. Researchers applying distant reading approaches, which ideally need open access to the entire data set in order to apply its approaches rather than curated interfaces, are still not part of the main vision. 2. Few historians are trained in text mining, information retrieval and related approaches. It will be argued that libraries have not only a responsibility to give access to research-relevant digital data but also to provide competent consultation and teaching in analytical methods suitable to and made possible by the digital medium. 3. The final area encompasses the provision of tools that implement standard methods on the newspaper corpora. This area might be one where libraries focus on the re-use of already existing tools rather than own developments.
