English abstract

This article aims to indicate the lessons learnt from the digitization initiative by the Lithuanian National Bibliographic Agency – the Centre of Bibliography and Book Science at the Martynas Mažvydas National Library of Lithuania – and other memory institutions (the Lithuanian Art Museum and the Office of the Chief Archivist of Lithuanian), which provide authoritative bibliographic descriptions for the national collection. It describes experience in the development, application and updating of formats and standards used for recording bibliographic information and cultural content, provision of access to it, establishment of the Integrated Virtual Library Information System and the integrated portal of the cultural heritage www.epaveldas.lt. The report specifies the Lithuanian national bibliographic agency’s efforts on updating the legislation to reflect partnership among memory institutions, creation of a methodology for such partnership as well as encouraging the compilation of the national bibliography
