58th Library Week Programs

An extensive library, SALT Research holds documents and sources on art, architecture, design and social life, and the economic history of Turkey and its surrounding region. These exceptional collections comprise more than 1,900,000 unique digitized resources. SALT Research preserves knowledge by making it public. As part of a long-term commitment to digitizing resources at SALT Research, the institution makes documents and sources universally available via archives.saltresearch.org together with the catalogue of local access publications.

In the context of the 58th Library Week, Wednesday, March 30, SALT is hosting an online conversation with Barbara Lison, the President of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Istanbul, Turkish Librarians Association Istanbul Branch, Koç University Suna Kıraç Library and MEF University Library. The following day, Sanem Yardımcı, Goethe-Institut Istanbul’s Library and Information Services Manager and SALT’s Senior Librarian and Archivist Sezin Romi will be in conversation.

In addition to the online conversations, a series of publications suggested by SALT Research users, will be shared via SALT’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram platforms throughout the week.
