The themes discussed in the contribution recur in the author’s theoretical reflection in recent years: definition of LIS: the discipline that reflects on the construction, organization, management and use, as well as on the languages and services to the public of the library; relationship between librarian and LIS teacher: both figures have the same identity, both insist on the same cultural and technical background; open access: the theme is fundamental as a substrate for the free sharing of research products; metadata creation: the process of recording data functional to the identification and retrieval of any type of resource; terminology: new concepts and new types of resources have imposed new terms; authority control: by assembling different data, it allows a greater identification of the resources and of the entities associated with them. The reflection ends with the importance of the international dimension of research.

In June 2020, some major publishers - Hachette Book Group, HarperCollins, John Wiley & Sons, Penguin Random House - sued the Internet Archive for copyright infringement. The case is about the activity of the Open Library and of the National Emergency Library managed by Internet Archive. These offered digitisation and lend of printed books owned by the libraries, some of which were protected by copyright. This activity was carried out on the basis of Controlled Digital Lending, a theory not provided by US copyright law. In its March 2023 ruling, the Court agreed with the plaintiffs. In the first part of the article, the activities of the Open Library and the National Emergency Library are briefly reconstructed and the development of the litigation is put into context. The second part is dedicated to Controlled Digital Lending: the implementation process is defined, the position of its theorists is explored and the legal framework on which it is based, is reconstructed. The third part presents the main reasons for the prosecution and the Court's decision. Finally, some reflections are proposed.
2020 年 6 月,一些大型出版商--Hachette Book Group、HarperCollins、John Wiley & Sons 和 Penguin Random House--起诉互联网档案馆侵犯版权。此案涉及互联网档案馆管理的开放图书馆和国家紧急图书馆的活动。这些活动提供图书馆所拥有的印刷书籍的数字化和借阅服务,其中一些书籍受版权保护。这项活动是在 "受控数字借阅 "的基础上开展的,而美国版权法并未规定这一理论。在 2023 年 3 月的裁决中,法院同意了原告的意见。文章第一部分简要回顾了开放图书馆和国家紧急图书馆的活动,并介绍了诉讼的来龙去脉。第二部分专门讨论了受控数字借阅:界定了实施过程,探讨了理论家的立场,并重新构建了其所依据的法律框架。第三部分介绍了起诉和法院判决的主要原因。最后,提出了一些思考。

Nowadays, new technologies make it possible to restart the debate about the interpretation of the archival heritage on a deeper level than that outlined in the Guida generale degli archivi di Stato italiani. The debate should be taken up not only with regard to some aspects related to the preservation of archives, but rather for historical and archival-historical purposes. In fact, new technologies make it possible to conceive an effective rendering – on a ‘graphic’ and structural level, but also on a deeper conceptual level – of archival history research aimed at reconstructing the contexts in which the archives still available today have developed, making it possible to re-propose both the ‘production’ and ‘preservation’ phases and the subsequent ‘tradition’ phase, with particular reference to those passages that from the end of the Ancient Regime have brought them down to us and have handed them down to us. The recent study of the vicissitudes of some important archives in Veneto, Trentino and Südtirol areas makes it possible to read their structure stratigraphically and to reconstruct ‘virtually’ their order in different periods.
如今,新技术使得重新开始关于档案遗产解释的辩论成为可能,而不是在Guida generale degli archivii di Stato italiani中概述的那样。不仅应该就有关保存档案的某些方面进行辩论,而且应该为历史和档案-历史目的进行辩论。事实上,新技术使构思有效的呈现成为可能——在“图形”和结构层面上,但也在更深层次的概念层面上——档案历史研究旨在重建今天仍然可用的档案发展的背景,使重新提出“生产”和“保存”阶段以及随后的“传统”阶段成为可能。特别提到那些从古代政权末期把它们带到我们这里并把它们传给我们的段落。最近对威尼托、特伦蒂诺和迪蒂罗尔地区一些重要档案的变迁研究,使人们有可能从地层学上解读它们的结构,并“几乎”重建它们在不同时期的顺序。

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Personal Data Protection Code, which has been updated to comply with the principles of the Regulation, have produced significant consequences with regard to the access to archives and the creation of finding aids, which must be subject to certain rules in order to comply with the principles laid down and avoid sanctions. Without claiming to be exhaustive, given the complexity and vastness of the topic, the proposed contribution aims to provide an overview of the situation on this issue, which is still in many ways little known, by offering some thoughts on the key principles of the GDPR and their application to the archival context of access and description.

The definition of document and its evolution over time and within different disciplinary fields influences and determines norms, safeguarding and protection profiles and also disciplinary boundaries, without, to date, any adequate theoretical reflection and any universally accepted semantics. An attempt to define at the very least a state of the art represents the unavoidable condition towards the re-establishment of text and documentary disciplines within an epistemic framework in the making. The terminological definition influences and determines the very concept of archive which, in a digital context, increases its innate polysemy and requires a deep conceptual redefinition.

In the panorama of the institutions of the Italian Archival Administration, the Umbria Soprintendenza archivistica e bibliografica can certainly boast a primacy: its conspicuous editorial production that started in the late 1990s and composed by the series “Segni di civiltà” and “Scaffali senza polvere”, in addition to the many exhibition catalogs. To date, in SIUSA and the SAN Portal - Online Research Tools, there are over 500 inventories of Umbrian archives, more than a quarter of the national production. What path has been taken from printed volumes to downloadable pdfs and browsing archival description software?

The archival inventory is the highest expression of archival work. It is the most complex and articulated finding aid. To write an archival inventory, it is necessary to deeply understand records in the archive and its creator. The arrangement that is painstakingly achieved through a reordering and inventorying intervention, and then presented in the form of an archival inventory, can be read not so much as a descriptive axiom, but as an open threshold to potential new universes largely unexpressed. In other words, the inventory can only be thought of as the beginning and not the end of an archival practice.

The paper aims to illustrate how, between the 19th and 20th centuries, the practice of archival inventory was established even in Italian municipalities, in relation to the calls of the Ministry of the Interior, the indications of a developing discipline and professional manuals exemplifying practices and models. Through the use of diagrams, we trace the development of the inventory in the local context, which initially has a patrimonial connotation, but gradually takes on a cultural function.
