Qué es una Mediateca

Los videos y cds los puedes encontrar en la Mediateca. ¡Mediateca! ¿Qué es la mediateca? Muchos usuarios aún no saben que es una mediateca y para qué sirve. Filmoteca les suena de algo pero la palabramediateca aún le es bastante desconocida. Cuando se lo explicas te dicen que la conocen más como la zona de pelis

Una Mediateca intenta reunir todos los contenidos audiovisuales, tanto los documentos sonoros como de video y se puede encontrar esta zona añadida en la mayoría de bibliotecas municipales y universitarias, que poco a poco han ido incorporando y adaptando los espacios para estos contenidos. La mediateca dispone de un fondo audiovisual y multimedia bastante amplio con soportes digitales como el cd para música, dvds para las películas y cd-rom para ordenadores. Aun así puedes encontrar generalmente, cualquier clase de formato y de temática. Entre discos, cds, películas, documentales, series, programas, idiomas... puede llegar a ser, bien acondicionado, un lugar muy útil para poder estudiar, trabajar o consultar de otra manera que no sean con libros.

Viaje matemático desde la India a España: taller illustrado para estudiantes


En este taller ameno y lleno de participación estudiantil se utiliza la actividad de análisis y creación de música como un espacio divertido para entender la aplicación práctica de las matemáticas. También se expone un poco de la historia de las matemáticas* para ver cómo el hombre se ha acercado al tema de cantidades, orden, patrones, y espacio. Este taller participativo es a la vez una presentación artística dirigida por el guitarrista flamenco Carlos Bedoya y la bailarina/bailaora Paulette Beauchamp, artistas puertorriqueños que se han especializado en las disciplinas de Flamenco (de España) y Kathak (danza clásica del Norte de la India). Ambas disciplinas se distinguen por sus complicadas estructuras musicales. 

 Los estudiantes que asistan a este taller / espectáculo tendrán la oportunidad de entender estas formas claramente y comprender que los límites y las reglas crean estructura; y que tener estructura (matemática) permite la creación artística. De esa manera este taller también enlaza inadvertidamente dos cosas aparentemente distintas: el proceso técnico de la matemática con la apreciación de la estética del baile y la música de Flamenco y Kathak. También se usan ejemplos de otros estilos de música y bailes de Puerto Rico.

This Call for Paper, Workshops and Posters, to be presented at the Conference, is open to all information specialists including librarians, archivists, record administrators, museologists and educators in the field of information science, as well as information providers.

Conference Program
The theme of this year’s conference is KNOWLEDGE TERRITORIES:Exploring Commons Environments for Learning, Research, Creativity and Productivity in Libraries, Archives and Museums in the Caribbean.  As expressed by Madam President Jimenez-Vera, it is being observed that different types of libraries, archives and museums, from several parts of the world, are changing their environments and services to cater to the needs and expectations of their diverse clienteles. The Commons philosophy, which leads to the design of different environments to satisfy diverse user needs, appears to be propitious to stimulate individual and collaborative endeavors  to the exploration and creation of knowledge, and to provide a space to let the imagination and creativity grow.                 

                                                                                   
This conference is also designed to provide the spirit of Ubuntu, in order to closely explore the Commons philosophy, its application in our Caribbean information units, and to provide the strategies and tools for best practices.  It is our hope that the knowledge acquired from the lectures, workshops, poster sessions, among many other professional development activities in this Acurilean learning and practice community, will keep positioning our Caribbean information units in the frame of avant-garde international librarianship.


Paper contributions to the program therefore can either have the purpose of knowledge dissemination and discussion (panel) or have the purpose of knowledge development; and/or skills training (workshop). In our effort to increase professional development for ACURIL members and members of affiliated library associations, we welcome workshop proposals that could count as Continuing Education (CE) credit. In addition, we are circulating a Call for poster sessions to showcase projects and research in relation to the conference theme.


Objectives of the Conference

This Caribbean event 2013, that brings together all Acurileans and other informationprofessionals, is a proactive educational exercise, with a dual purpose:


First,  to explore in a collaborative manner the key elements, strengths and limitations, of the Commons concept, in its different dimensions, geared to provide spaces, for individual and collective study, research, creativity and productivity, in libraries, archives, museums and other information units; and,

Second,  to examine together the possible effective implementation and development of Commons variants, in our different Knowledge Territories, using the evidence-based practice of the information professional.  The space to be provided for dialogue and collective discussion, will allow us to identify and evaluated different ways to approach the paradigm, designs, tools, action plans, required training of personnel, aiming to consider ways in which to adopt  new environments within our libraries, archives, museums and other information units, as Knowledge Territories, within our Caribbean region.
This joint action will allow our libraries, archives and museums personnel to re-evaluate, refurbish, and stengthen its bases, within theoretical and practical frameworks, with evidences to support effective actions and, therefore, to be able to share the experiences in the region and in other international forums.

Program Subthemes

In order to achieve these objectives, the Conference will focus the following special themes, specifically related to the Knowledge Territories, that we identify as Libraries, Archives, and Museums, integrating variants of the Commons paradigm.
Special Theme I. Knowledge Territories integrating the concept of Commons: Theory and Practice. Definition and development of the concept.

Biblioteca escolar y nuevas alfabetizaciones

Autores: Mònica Baró Llambias

En el contexto digital, las bibliotecas escolares constituyen un entorno privilegiado para el desarrollo de las competencias relacionadas con el tratamiento de la información y el entorno digital. La biblioteca amplía sus objetivos y funciones; además, se involucra claramente en el proceso educativo, facilitando las nuevas alfabetizaciones y reforzando las más tradicionales. Esta biblioteca requiere un perfil de bibliotecario escolar que se transforma en un verdadero especialista en gestión de la información.
