Abstract

Uloga knjižnice kao društvene ustanove jest pružanje usluge pristupa različitoj građi i informacijama građanima, ovisno o njihovim potrebama. Knjižnica brine o kulturnim, obrazovnim i informacijskim potrebama korisnika. Te potrebe razlikuju se ovisno o spolu, dobi, obrazovanju, interesima i položaju u društvu. Slijepe i slabovidne osobe su skupina korisnika s posebnim potrebama. No i oni imaju potrebu čitanja kao i ostali korisnici. U Republici Hrvatskoj postoji nekoliko klasičnih knjižnica koje su proširile svoje usluge opremom i građom za slijepe i slabovidne osobe, no Hrvatska knjižnica za slijepe je jedina takva knjižnica u Hrvatskoj. Osnovana je 1965. godine te ju koriste osobe koje ne mogu čitati standardni tisak, najčešće slijepe i slabovidne osobe. Podijeljena je u tri odjela: posudbeni, brajičnu tiskaru i studio za snimanje zvučne građe. Ovaj rad opisuje način rada brajične tiskare i snimanja zvučnih izdanja u studiju. Tisak knjiga na brajici je dug i skup proces, zato se sve više građe snima u zvučnom studiju. Zvučne knjige su brže gotove nego tiskane, a sam proces je jednostavniji i jeftiniji. Slijepe i slabovidne osobe, shodno razvoju tehnologije, sve više koriste zvučne knjige zbog čega se korištenje brajičnog pisma smanjilo.

Abstract (english)

The role of the library as a social institution is to provide access to various materials and information to citizens, depending on their needs. The library takes care of the cultural, educational, and informational needs of users. These needs differ depending on gender, age, education, interests, and position in society. Blind and visually impaired are a group of users with special needs. But they also need to read like other users. There are several classic libraries in the Croatia that have expanded their services with equipment and materials for and visually impaired, but the Croatian Library for the Blind is the only such library in Croatia. It was founded in 1965. and is used by people who cannot read standard print, mostly blind and visually impaired. It is divided into three departments: lending department, Braille printing department and studio for audio production. This paper describes the operation of the Braille printing department and audio production in the studio. Braille books required long and expensive process, which is why more and more material is recorded in a studio. Audio books are finished faster than Braille books, and the process itself is simpler and cheaper. Blind and visually impaired, in accordance with the development of technology, increasingly use audio books, which is why the use of Braille letter has decreased.
