Datenbanken Museologie, Bestandserhaltung, Kulturgutschutz

[Klaus Graf <graf _at__ uni-koblenz.de>]

Das Canadian Heritage Information Network (CHIN)
http://www.chin.gc.ca/e_main_menu.html
bietet neben (empfehlenswerten) kostenfreien Angeboten auch einen
kostenpflichtigen Bereich vor allem mit Datenbankangeboten, der aber
mittels eines sofort uebersandten kostenlosen Zugangscodes unkompliziert
30 Tage lang frei benutzt werden kann. Institutionelle Benutzer zahlen
jaehrlich 550 US-Dollar (1-3 Arbeitsplaetze), persoenliche 100 US-Dollar
(jeweils ausserhalb Kanadas).

Eine Lizenz zu erwerben sollten groessere deutsche Institutionen
(Bibliotheken, Museen) durchaus in Erwaegung ziehen, da die Datenbanken
einen guten und aktuellen Zugang zur englischsprachigen Literatur im
Bereich Museen, Bestandserhaltung, Kulturgutschutz eroeffnen. Die List
of Site Licence Users nennt noch keine Institution aus dem
deutschsprachigen Raum.

Ich habe die nicht nur auf Kanada bezueglichen Angebote ausprobiert.

Heritage Law Bibliography

Stand: Juli 1999

"Compiled by international heritage law experts, Dr. Patrick J. O'Keefe
and Professor Lyndel V. Prott, the Heritage Law Bibliography is a source
of a great deal of bibliographic information pertaining to legal issues
surrounding cultural and natural
 heritage in about 100 countries. Citations are drawn from the
international literature
 and include books, journal articles, conference proceedings, reports of
litigation, and government documents. This database grew out of research
by Dr. O'Keefe and
Professor Prott for their five-volume series, Law and the Cultural
Heritage. Topics include the theft of artifacts, repatriation, and the
unlawful trade in cultural              goods. This database is a
current and exhaustive guide to literature on the heritage
laws in various jurisdictions. Data remain in the languages in which
they were
recorded."
