Abstract

Germany has a long tradition of health libraries. From their origin in monasteries, they became centres of knowledge and education. In modern times, this tradition has been continued by the Central Library of Medicine. In addition, as a specialty in Germany, special collection areas and special libraries that focus on one topic were established. Those services were transformed to specialized information services and portals as part of the digital transformation process. One of such projects is OPEN-CAM, which provides literature on integrative medicine in a specialist library and hosts the literature database CAMbase. Based on this example, we show how digital transformation has influenced the library landscape and its structures in Germany.

信息技术与德国图书馆不断变化的角色模式:以OPEN-CAM为例。
德国有着悠久的健康图书馆传统。从修道院开始,它们就成为了知识和教育的中心。在现代,中央医学图书馆一直延续着这一传统。此外,作为德国的一个专业,建立了专注于一个主题的专门收藏区和专门图书馆。作为数字化转型进程的一部分,这些服务已转变为专门的信息服务和门户网站。其中一个项目是OPEN-CAM,它在一个专业图书馆中提供关于综合医学的文献,并托管文献数据库CAMbase。基于这个例子,我们展示了数字化转型如何影响德国的图书馆景观及其结构。
