<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000000;">Twice a year the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/index.html">Library of Congress</a> open the doors of the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/main/">Main Reading Room</a> to the public.

<p><span style="color: #888888;">Dos veces al año la <a href="http://www.loc.gov/index.html">Biblioteca del Congreso</a> abre las puertas de su  <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/main/">principal sala de lectura</a> al público. Estuve allí la semana pasada y me encantó. Además de ver el salón que es precioso, también habían un montón de bibliotecarios presentas, todos atendiendo preguntas sobre el edificio y los muchos servicios extraordinarios que ofrecen.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7228" title="lawloc3" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lawloc3.jpg" alt="" width="657" height="494" />Last week I had a great visit at the Law Library of Congress. My visit began with an introduction by <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/01/an-interview-with-david-mao/"><span style="color: #000000;">David Mao</span></a>, Deputy Law Librarians of Congress, who gave share some historical background about the library, the scope of the collection, and the type of services they provide.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">La semana pasada tuve una visita excelente en la Biblioteca de Leyes del Congreso. Mi visita comenzó con una introducción de <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/01/an-interview-with-david-mao/">David Mao</a>, Bibliotecarios Adjunto de Derecho del Congreso, quién dio a compartir algunos antecedentes históricos sobre la biblioteca, el alcance de la colección, y el tipo de servicios que prestan.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The LOC was established in 1800 as the government moved from Philadelphia to DC. In 1814 the library was destroyed with the British burned the Capitol Buildings, and in 1815 the library began anew with the purchase of Thomas Jefferson&#8217;s personal library. As the country grew and acquired the Louisiana Territory, Florida, and a portion of Mexico, the Law LOC strengthen their effort to collect foreign law.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">La LOC se estableció en 1800 cuando el gobierno se traslado de Filadelfia a Washington DC. En 1814 la biblioteca fue destruida por los británicos quienes quemaron los edificios del Capitolio. En 1815 la biblioteca comenzó de nuevo con la compra de la biblioteca personal del ex-presidente Thomas Jefferson. A medida que el país creció y adquirió el territorio de Louisiana, Florida, y una parte de México, la LOC jurídica fortaleció sus esfuerzos para coleccionar ley extranjera.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Afterwards I met Janice Hyde, director of GLIN Central. Janice share all her tricks about this great database. And in case you don&#8217;t know about GLIN, it stands for <a href="http://www.glin.gov/search.action"><span style="color: #000000;">Global Legal Information Network</span></a> and it&#8217;s a great tool to find official texts of laws, regulations, judicial decisions, and other complementary legal sources contributed by governmental agencies and international organizations. The initial search screen is a Google style search box, but you can also select &#8220;More search options&#8221; and limit your search by country, date, and <a href="http://www.glin.gov/subjectTermIndex.action"><span style="color: #000000;">subject terms</span></a> - do notice that you can download this entire index and use it for your own work if needed. And here is the <a href="https://docs.google.com/open?id=13_PV4Qi5V7JD9fVbzZJyknwvAWkJ0tjLTjX-QpH2kpEyvEuwZiPJdfrEzyUf">search guide</a> Janice shared with me, it&#8217;s everything you ever wanted to know about GLIN.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Después conocí a Janice Hyde, directora de GLIN Central. Janice compartir todos sus trucos acerca de esta gran base de datos. Y en caso de que no sepan de esta base de datos,  <a href="http://www.glin.gov/search.action">GLIN es la Red Global de Información Legal</a> y es una gran herramienta para encontrar los textos oficiales de leyes, reglamentos, decisiones judiciales y otras fuentes complementarias, todas aportados por la varias agencias gubernamentales y organizaciones internacionales. La pagina inicial de búsqueda es un cuadro de búsqueda estilo Google, pero también puede seleccionar &#8221;Más opciones de búsqueda&#8221; y limitar la búsqueda por país, fecha y <a href="http://www.glin.gov/subjectTermIndex.action">términos </a>- dese cuenta de si desea puede descargar este índice completo y utilizarlo para su propio trabajo. Y aquí está la <a href="https://docs.google.com/open?id=13_PV4Qi5V7JD9fVbzZJyknwvAWkJ0tjLTjX-QpH2kpEyvEuwZiPJdfrEzyUf">guía de búsqueda</a> que Janice compartido conmigo, es todo lo que siempre quiso saber sobre GLIN.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7211" title="lawloc2" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lawloc2.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="592" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Next came Eduardo Soares, Senior Foreign Law Specialist. Eduardo and the other foreign law specialist tend to have been raised and received their legal training abroad. Such a background allows them to be experts in other legal systems so they may correctly explain these jurisdictions to Congress members and other patrons. Their expertise also allows them to do comparative research and help local patrons research legislation from around the world. The foreign law specialist also produce reports that will inform congress members about a variety of topics. Many of these report are initially available only to Congress, but some of the information is shared with the public later on through a variety of means.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Después vino Eduardo Soares, Especialista Principal del Derecho Extranjero. Eduardo y los otro especialista en derecho extranjero tienden a se extranjeros y a haber recibido su capacitación profesional en su país de origen. Su currículo les permite ser expertos en otros sistemas jurídicos, lo cual les permite poder explicar estas jurisdicciones a los miembros del Congreso y otros usuarios de la biblioteca. Su experiencia también les permite hacer estudios comparativos, y ayudar a sus usuarios a hacer investigación sobre la legislación del mundo. El especialista en derecho extranjero también elaborar informes que informarán a los miembros del Congreso acerca de una variedad de temas. Muchos de estos informes están disponibles inicialmente sólo para el Congreso, pero parte de la información es compartida con el público más adelante a través de una variedad de medios.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">One of the places where to access information gathered by the foreign law specialist if the Global Legal Monitor. Here are <a href="http://www.loc.gov/lawweb/servlet/lloc_news?rss"><span style="color: #000000;">all their RSS options</span></a>. I&#8217;m subscribed to a few of these, and love receiving their notices directly in my reader. Another place to check is the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/current-topics.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Current Legal topics</span></a> which provide commentary and recommended resources about events with legal significance. A third place to look are their <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Guides to the law Online</span></a>. Here you will find tons of great resources on USA law, <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/nations.php"><span style="color: #000000;">many countries around the world</span></a>, as well as <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/international.php"><span style="color: #000000;">international and multinational law</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Uno de los lugares donde se comparte la información recopilada por el especialista en derecho extranjero es el Global Legal Monitor. Aquí están <a href="http://www.loc.gov/lawweb/servlet/lloc_news?rss">todas las opciones de RSS</a>. Estoy suscrito a algunos de estos, y me encanta recibir sus anuncios directamente en mi lector. Otro lugar para ver es <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/current-topics.php">Temas Jurídicos Actuales</a> que ofrecen comentarios y recursos recomendados sobre los acontecimientos con relevancia jurídica. Un tercer lugar para buscar son sus <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide.php">guías de la ley en línea</a>. Aquí usted encontrará toneladas de excelentes recursos sobre legislación de EE.UU., la ley de <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/nations.php">muchos países del mundo</a>, así como el <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/international.php">derecho internacional y supranacional</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Then I met <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/02/an-interview-with-matthew-braun/">Matthew Braun</a>, who works reference at the Law Loc. He shared a lot of general information about their services and how to find legal resources for the USA. One of the best destinations is <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php"><span style="color: #000000;">THOMAS</span></a>, which offers you USA legislation. Two other interesting online collection are the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/find/court-nominations.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Supreme Court Nominations</span></a>, and <a href="http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/amlaw/"><span style="color: #000000;">A Century of Lawmaking</span></a> . He also answered questions about how to use the Law LOC (you just show up, and register for an ID), and their ILL services to other libraries. The Law LOC reference department is around to help everyone with their legal research. <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/"><span style="color: #000000;">Here are the many topics they cover and their contact information</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Luego conocí a <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/02/an-interview-with-matthew-braun/">Matthew Braun</a>, quien trabaja como referenciasta en la LOC jurídica Braun compartió una gran cantidad de información general sobre sus servicios y como encontrar los recursos para investigación sobre la legislación de los EE.UU. Uno de los mejores portales es <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php">THOMAS</a>, el cual ofrece la legislación estadounidense. Otras dos colecciones en línea interesantes son las <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/find/court-nominations.php">Postulantes para la Corte Suprema de Justicia</a>, y <a href="http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/amlaw/">Un siglo de Legislación</a>. También respondió preguntas acerca de cómo usar la su biblioteca (basta con aparecerse, y registrarse para obtener un carné), y sus servicios de préstamo interbibliotecario con otras instituciones. El departamento de referencia esta disponible para ayudarle a todo el mundo con su investigación jurídica. <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/">Aquí están los muchos temas que abarcan y su información de contacto</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Last, but certainly, not least, Clifton Brown, Program Specialist for outreach and services allowed me to see their stacks! The onsite collection covers a football field and it&#8217;s a sight to see. Rows upon rows of books from all around the world, and any language you can image.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Por último, pero no por ello menos importante, Clifton Brown, especialista del programa de servicios de extensión ¡me permitió ver la estantería privada de la biblioteca! La colección abarca todo un campo de fútbol y es un espectáculo digno de ver. Filas y filas de libros de todo el mundo, y cuantos idiomas pueda imaginar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As the de facto National Library, the LOC works to serve Congress, the Supreme Court, and all the rest of us! Today anyone from the USA or abroad can call, email, or show up at the Law LOC and get help with their research. If you are in DC, do go visit them, they are doing wonders with our tax dollars!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Siendo la biblioteca nacional por defecto, la biblioteca del congreso trabaja en servicio del congreso, la Corte Suprema, ¡y todo nosotros! Hoy cualquiera persona en los EE.UU. o desde el extranjero puede llamar, enviar un correo electrónico o presentarse en persona y obtendrá ayuda con su investigación. Si usted está en DC, no deje de ir a la biblioteca del congreso. ¡Ellos están haciendo maravillas con nuestros impuestos! </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;"><span style="color: #000000;">A million thanks to my friend Ángel Alonso for helping set up this visit!</span> </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;"> ¡Mil gracias a mi amigo Ángel Alonso por ayudar a coordinar esta visita!</span></strong></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Here&#8217;s a great documentary about the Library of Congress which C-SPAN has made available for free! The documentary is an hour and a half and showcases the marvels of the collection, including many interesting stories about specific items, and the Jefferson building. If you have already visited the LOC this documentary will give you lots of additional information and closeup views of the art in the buildings and the treasures of the collection. If you haven&#8217;t been to the LOC yet, this documentary will certainly whet you appetite.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Aquí hay un gran documental sobre la Biblioteca del Congreso que C-SPAN ha puesto a disposición de forma gratuita! El documental dura hora y media y muestra las maravillas de la colección, incluyendo muchas historias interesantes sobre piezas específicas, y el edificio Jefferson. Si ya ha visitado el LOC este documental le dará mucha más información y le permitirá ver de cerca el arte y detalles del edificios y los tesoros de la colección. Si aun no visita la LOC, este documental sin duda le abrirá el apetito para visitar.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #888888;">Aquí está un <a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/2009/12/29/library-of-congress/">artículo</a> anterior escribí acerca de mi primera visita a la LOC.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/lawlibraryofcongress"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-6550" title="law LOC" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/law-LOC.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="476" /></a><span style="color: #000000;">Today I spent the morning at the Law Library of Congress attending their <em><a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-orient.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Orientation to Legal Research and the Use of Law Library Collections</span></a> </em>session. I first learned about this event from their blog &#8221; <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/"><span style="color: #000000;">In Custodia Legis</span></a>&#8221; and was delighted to attend.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Hoy he pasado la mañana en la Biblioteca Legal del Congreso participando en su <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-orient.php"><em>orientación a la investigación jurídica y el uso de la colección de la biblioteca lega</em>l</a>. Me enteré de este evento a través de su blog &#8220;<a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/">En Custodia Legis</a>&#8221; y quede encantada de poder participar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The session lasted 2.5 hours and we covered a lot of material. The session focused on federal legal research, and we worked with examples on the subject of home health care. The librarian offering the session did a great job by starting off with some background information about types of laws, and the difference between the types of resources, then showed us where to look for relevant information within their print and online collections.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La sesión duró 2,5 horas y cubrió una gran cantidad de material. La sesión se centró en la investigación judicial federal, y se trabajó con ejemplos sobre el tema de la atención de salud en el hogar. La bibliotecaria que ofreció la sesión hizo una labor magnifica. Empezó con información general acerca de los diferentes tipos de leyes, y la diferencia entre los tipos de recursos, luego nos mostró dónde buscar información pertinente dentro de sus colecciones impresas y en línea.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For the legislative branch the online resources we covered were <a href="http://thomas.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Thomas.gov</span></a> which offers legislative information, <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/"><span style="color: #000000;">FDsys</span></a> which is the government&#8217;s printing office, and <a href="http://uscode.house.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">USCODE</span></a> whose name is self explanatory.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Acerca del Poder Legislativo de los recursos en línea que miramos fueron <a href="http://thomas.gov/">Thomas.gov</a> que ofrece información legislativa, <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/">FDsys</a> que es la oficina de impresión del gobierno, y <a href="http://uscode.house.gov/">USCODE</a> que ofrece todo el código del país.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For the judicial branch we talked about the differences in courts, and how much of their decisions get published and become public. For district courts this number is only 5-10%. The courts of appeals publish between 45-55% through the Federal Reporter, and everything the Supreme Court decides becomes public. Curiously, Cornell University&#8217;s law school started publishing these Supreme Court decisions long before the government got around to it, so their online collection &#8211; <a href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/"><span style="color: #000000;">LII </span></a>- is more complete and goes back further than the resources on the <a href="http://www.supremecourt.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Supreme Court&#8217;s website</span></a>. We also looked at <a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/Home.aspx"><span style="color: #000000;">USCOURTS</span></a> for all sorts of information on courts. This site also includes a<a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/JudgesAndJudgeships/BiographicalDirectoryOfJudges.aspx"><span style="color: #000000;"> biographical directory of all the federal judges</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Para el Poder Judicial hablamos acerca de las diferencias en los tribunales, y cómo parte de sus decisiones se publican y se hacen públicos. Para los tribunales de distrito este número es sólo el 5-10%. Los tribunales de apelaciones publicar entre 45-55% a través del reportero Federal, y todo lo que el Tribunal Supremo decide se hace público. Curiosamente escuela de derecho de la Universidad de Cornell comenzó a publicar estas decisiones de la Corte Suprema mucho antes de que el gobierno llegó a hacerlo, así que su colección en línea &#8211; <a href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/">LII</a> &#8211; es mucho más completo y regresa más atrás que los recursos en el <a href="http://www.supremecourt.gov/">sitio web de la Corte Suprema</a>. También nos miramos USCOURTS para todo tipo de información sobre los tribunales. Este sitio también incluye una <a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/JudgesAndJudgeships/BiographicalDirectoryOfJudges.aspx">guía biográfica de todos los jueces federales</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">At the end of the session we looked at a couple of resources outside the government. One of these was <a href="http://www.llrx.com/"><span style="color: #000000;">LLRX.com</span></a> which offers a wide range of resources for legal professionals; best of all are their <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-research.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">research guides</span></a>, <a href="http://www.llrx.com/librarian-resources.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">resources for librarians</span></a>, and <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-technology.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">legal technology</span></a>. The other site we looked at was the <a href="http://llsdc.org/"><span style="color: #000000;">Law Librarians Society of Washington DC</span></a> (LLSDC) which can help make local connections.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Al final de la sesión vimos un par de los recursos fuera del gobierno. Uno de ellos fue <a href="http://www.llrx.com/">LLRX.com</a> que ofrece una amplia gama de recursos para profesionales del derecho, lo mejor de todo son sus <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-research.htm">guías de investigación</a>,<a href="http://www.llrx.com/librarian-resources.htm"> recursos para bibliotecarios</a>, y <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-technology.htm">tecnología jurídica</a>. El otro sitio que vimos fue la Ley de Sociedad de Bibliotecarios de Washington DC (LLSDC) que puede ayudar a hacer conexiones locales.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If all of these resources look a bit advance, and you need to start at the beginning take a look at <a href="http://kids.clerk.house.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Kids in the House</span></a> which will give you some of the basic terminology, and will explain how bills are passed. The site offers resources divided by school level.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Si todos estos recursos le parecen un poco adelantado y necesita empezar por el principio mire<a href="http://kids.clerk.house.gov/"> este sitio creado para niños</a> y que ofrece terminología básica y explicará cómo se pasan la leyes. El sitio ofrece recursos divididos por nivel escolar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you are in the DC area I really recommend the session. It&#8217;s free and all you have to do is <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-form.php"><span style="color: #000000;">register</span></a> to attend.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Si se encuentra en el área de DC realmente recomiendo la sesión. Es gratis y todo lo que tienes que hacer es <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-form.php">registrarse </a>para asistir.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/bib3.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4997" title="bib3" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/bib3.jpg" alt="" width="346" height="460" /></a>At the beginning of the month I was in Montreal and got to visit La Grande Bibliothèque! This library is one of the city&#8217;s largest public libraries, and the collection is part of the <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/accueil/">Library and National Archives of Québec</a>. I presume that since this region of Canada includes a vibrant separatist movement they feel the need to have their own national library and archives.  Politics aside, library holds about 4 millions items, most of which are in French, and 30% in English. This library is one of the most popular libraries in the francophone world, and I when I visited on a Sunday, the place really was full of people.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">¡A principios del mes estuve en Montreal y pude visitar La Grande Bibliothèque! Esta biblioteca es una de las bibliotecas públicas mas grandes de la ciudad y la colección es parte de la </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/accueil/"><span style="color: #888888;">Biblioteca y Archivos Nacionales de Québec</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">. Supongo que como esta región de Canadá incluye un movimiento separatista vibrante que deben sentir la necesidad de tener su propia biblioteca y archivos nacionales. Política aparte, la biblioteca cuenta con cerca de 4 millones de artículos, la mayoría de los cuales están en francés y 30% en Inglés. Esta biblioteca es una de las colecciones más populares en el mundo de habla francesa, y el domingo que estuve de visita, el lugar realmente estaba lleno de gente.</span></p>
<p>On their website the library breakups their various collections with  brief explanations of what you may expect to find. They have a large  collection covering <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/collection_patrimoniale_quebecoise/index.html">Quebec&#8217;s Heritage</a>, <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/fonds_archives/index.html">archives</a> that date back to the  17th century, <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/genealogie/index.html">resources for genealogical work</a>, <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/cartes_plans/index.html">maps</a>, <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/publications_gouvernementales/index.html">government  publications</a>, and <a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/collection_numerique/index.html">material which has been digitized</a>, including an RSS  for the most recent additions to this collection.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">En su sitio web de la biblioteca separa sus diversas colecciones con una breve explicación de lo que usted puede encontrar en cada una. Tienen una gran colección que abarca el </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/collection_patrimoniale_quebecoise/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">Patrimonio de Québec</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">, </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/fonds_archives/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">archivos</span></a><span style="color: #888888;"> que se remontan al siglo 17, </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/genealogie/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">recursos para el trabajo de genealogía</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">, </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/cartes_plans/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">mapas</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">, </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/publications_gouvernementales/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">publicaciones gubernamentales</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">, y </span><a href="http://www.banq.qc.ca/collections/collection_numerique/index.html"><span style="color: #888888;">material que ha sido digitalizado</span></a><span style="color: #888888;">, incluyendo un RSS para las adiciones más recientes a esta colección.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I arrived in Bogota last night and today I&#8217;m off to visit a few libraries, my first stop is the <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/">Biblioteca Nacional de Colombia</a>. As Colombia&#8217;s national library, one of their main responsibilities is serving as the country&#8217;s legal deposit.</p>
<p>The collection includes monographs, journals, and a large music collection. The library&#8217;s music collection includes both written music and recordings, a number of which were recoded in the library, back when they had a complete recording studio on the top floor. You can access all the digitized music scores <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/tools/marco.php?idcategoria=24940">here</a>. They have also created a <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/tools/marco.php?idcategoria=28543">musical map of the country</a> which will guide you through the various musical genres.</p>
<p>The library has also created a <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/index.php?idcategoria=18297">digital library</a> where it is uploading and making freely available much of its collection.</p>
<p>Right now there is also a very complete exhibit about &#8220;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vortex_%28novel%29">La Voragine</a>&#8221; (The Vortex) by José Eustacio Rivera, on the first floor of the library.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bib-nac-col-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3743" title="biblioteca Nacional de Colombia" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bib-nac-col-2.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="360" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Anoche llegué a Bogotá y hoy me voy a visitar algunas bibliotecas, mi primera parada es la <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/">Biblioteca Nacional de Colombia</a>. Como biblioteca nacional una de sus principales responsabilidades es servir como depósito legal del país.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La colección incluye monografías, publicaciones periódicas, y una gran colección musical. Colección de música de la biblioteca incluye tanto partituras como grabaciones, muchas de las cuales se grabaron en la biblioteca, cuando esta tenía un estudio de grabación completo en la planta superior. Puede acceder a toda la partituras digitalizadas <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/tools/marco.php?idcategoria=24940">aquí</a>. También han creado un <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/tools/marco.php?idcategoria=28543">mapa musical del país</a> que le guiará a través de los distintos géneros musicales.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La biblioteca también ha creado una <a href="http://www.bibliotecanacional.gov.co/index.php?idcategoria=18297">biblioteca digital</a> donde se carga y hacer libremente disponibles gran parte de su colección.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Ahora también hay una exposición muy completa sobre &#8220;<a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_vor%C3%A1gine">La Vorágine</a>&#8221; de José Eustasio Rivera, en el primer piso de la biblioteca.</span></p>
