THE VERSET AND FABORDÃO GENRES IN THE CONTEXT OF MUSIC MANUSCRIPT 242 FROM THE COIMBRA UNIVERSITY LIBRARY.

Este artigo é o resultado de uma pesquisa exaustiva que tenho desenvolvido em torno do Manuscrito 242 da Biblioteca da Universidade de Coimbra (P-Cug MM 242). Este valioso manuscrito do século XVIdestaca-se pela importância crucial para o estudo da música instrumental em Portugal, no Renascimento tardio e nas primeiras décadas do século XVII. Neste manuscrito estão reproduzidos alguns dosprimeiros exemplos de tento e fantasia, como o atestam as obras para tecla de António Carrreira (c.1530c. 1594). Para além de um grande número de cópias de motetes, andamentos de Missa, canções emadrigais escritos por diversos compositores europeus de meados do século XVI, identificados einventariados por Owen Rees, este manuscrito inclui também diversas peças instrumentais de autoriadesconhecida, que ainda não receberam a atenção que merecem. Deste conjunto, seleccionei dois grupos de obras que reúnem pequenas peças instrumentais, as quais irei aprofundar neste artigo. O primeirogrupo, que representa o objecto central deste estudo, é constituído por um conjunto de obras para teclacom melodias em cantochão que proponho incluir nos géneros verso e/ou fabordão para órgão. Pretendodiscutir estas obras a partir das suas características formais, estilísticas e performativas, assim como a suainclusão nas práticas de alternatim instrumental no Mosteiro de Santa Cruz de Coimbra durante esse período.

The deployment of an e-book consultation and loan service : the experience of the Open University of Catalonia Library

La Biblioteca de la UOC (UOC Library) ha ofert durant tres mesos (octubre-desembre 09), en fase de prova pilot, un servei de consulta i préstec de lectors de llibres electrònics (e-readers). Aquest nou desplegament s'ha desenvolupat en consonància amb l'aposta general de la Universitat en innovació en tecnologies aplicades a l'educació, i la voluntat de potenciar les col·leccions de llibres electrònics i l'ús dels dispositius de lectura de llibres electrònics com una extensió més de la tecnologia del Campus 5.0, en el suport a l'aprenentatge dels seus estudiants durant la seva formació a la Universitat. Aquest treball presenta en detall les especificacions de la prova pilot, a més de contenir una anàlisi i avaluació dels resultats obtinguts: punts forts i punts febles, relació dels aspectes a millorar i modificar, de cara a la consolidació final del servei.

Library support for science research and education at Bucknell University: pulling it all together

Based on the Ricker/Witmer survey on Library Support for Science Research and Education, a brief statistical analysis of the Bucknell University community and library support for science and engineering research and education is provided. The position and responsibilities of Reference Librarian/Coordinator of Science and Engineering Resources in the Ellen Clarke Bertrand Library are detailed. Throughout the article, I describe the motivation and justification for an integrated university library collection, which serves not only the Science and Engineering faculty and students, but the entire Bucknell University community. The issues of finance and budget, public service, and information access and delivery in relation to a central university library are discussed.
