Geographical collections in greek academic libraries

International Conference on Integrated Information (IC-ININFO 2011)

The paper aims at exploring the existence
of geospatial collections and the GIS services in Greek
academic libraries through a research in their websites.
The initial hypothesis is that Greek academic libraries
are not familiar with geographical information and
services and therefore they have not developed efficient
collections and services for their patrons regarding
geospatial data. Thus, a research was conducted in
various Greek Higher Education Institutions for
departments affiliated with geographic information and
the use of GIS and those specific libraries websites were
scrutinized for the existence of any geographical
collection. The findings indicate that only three
academic libraries and one Technological Education
Institute’s Library offer geospatial information to their
users and this specific investigation confirms the
hypothesis that Greek university libraries haven’t
developed geographical collections and services despite
the fact that Greek Universities sustain an efficient
number of departments related to the subjects of
geography, geology, environmental studies etc.
However, these findings should be considered within the
wider context of geospatial information in Greece and
how this particular kind of information is spread.
