During the past 25 years, the Central Library of the Corvinus University of Budapest was constantly going through organisational restructuring, in order to integrate new tasks and services. The most important factors that affected the organization of work were the changes of the higher educational system, the ensuing downsize of university staff, the new user requirements as well as the new library building opened in 2007. These challenges led to the complete restructuring of the organization in order to ensure the effective and efficient functioning of the library. The previously hierarchical structure was transformed into a knowledge organization based on internal and external collaboration and knowledge transfer. The reorganization was accomplished in one year.

Bibliographic lists of publications by lecturers and researchers form an essential part of academic biographies. They represent the intellectual output by the institution as well, and refer to the scientific medium of the fields studied by individual researchers. Applying for financial support or grants, acquiring higher scholarly qualifications and scientific degrees, or gaining higher positions in academic institutions are in high correlation with presenting bibliographical lists and making them part of the statistics reports of the institutions. The first section of the article briefly overviews the characteristics of scientific publications in the fields of humanities and social sciences and presents the evaluation difficulties arising from them. It also reviews the scientometric efforts taken to eliminate the difficulties mentioned and to provide relevant evaluation and ranking aspects, such as the Indicator of National Orientation (INO) and the European Reference Index for the Humanities (ERIH). The second part outlines the Database of the Publications by the Staff of the Faculty of Humanities, Catholic University 'Pazmany Peter'. It overviews the first five years of developing the Database, the bibliographical challenges faced and the experiences gained.

A unified approach is applied for the construction of sequent forms of the famous Herbrand theorem for first-order classical and intuitionistic logics without equality. The forms do not explore skolemization, have wording on deducibility, and as usual, provide a reduction of deducibility in the first-order logics to deducibility in their propositional fragments. They use the original notions of admissibility, compatibility, a Herbrand extension, and a Herbrand universe being constructed from constants, special variables, and functional symbols ccurring in the signature of a formula under investigation. The ideas utilized in the research may be applied for the construction and theoretical investigations of various computer-oriented calculi for efficient logical inference search without skolemization in both classical and intuitionistic logics and provide some new technique for further development of methods for automated reasoning in non-classical logics.

(title in Polish - 'Krakowskie druki okolicznosciowe z okazji zaslubin Zygmunta I z Bona Sforza (18 kwietnia 1518). Przyczynek do bibliografii'). King Sigismund I's marriage to Bona Sforza in 1518 was an opportunity to publish numerous occasional materials, printed in Kraków by Jan Haller and Hieronim Wietor. Authors who published various works to mark the occasion included Joachim Vadianus (von Watt), Andrzej Krzycki, Rudolf Agricola and Dantyszek. Given the fact that copies of these publications have not survived and that old bibliographers held contradictory opinions about them, it is difficult to establish their number, authorship, chronology and relations between various editions. An analysis of various testimonies has allowed the author of the article to put forward a hypothesis that there were two different editions of Andrzej Krzycki's 'Epithalamium'.

Library Supply Distribution Co. (Konyvtarellato Kozhasznu Tarsasag - KELLO) carried out the modernisation of its services in the second half of 2004. The two main pillars of the modernisation were the conversion of the KELLO bibliographical database into the HunTeka integrated system, as well as the introduction of SAP. As a result of the integration of HunTeka and SAP, KELLO launched a new homepage and a range of enhanced services for its library customers as of Dec 1, 2004. The present article is an edited version of the presentation given at the Networkshop 2005 conference. It summarises the lessons learned from the switch to the new system, presents the new services and outlines the main areas of cooperation with SAP.

The Electronic Periodicals Archives & Database (EPA, http://www.epa.hu/) is an online inventory service launched in 2004 aimed at creating a registry and a bibliographic database of Hungarian online continuing resources. Its other task is to build and maintain a full-text digital periodicals archive. With the introduction of the service, we would also like to highlight some theoretical and practical problems that arose during the development of the EPA and working with e-periodicals in general.

One of the ways to collect materials for Poland's future national bibliography - especially in the 18th century, but also in the 19th - was to look for information about works by Polish authors in foreign publications. Those publications used the scarce Polish sources that were available at the time, mainly works by Szymon Starowolski. There were also direct contacts and exchange of information. We have, for instance, evidence of links between Jan Lasicki and Konrad Gesner, the author of 'Bibliotheca universalis' (Tiguri 1545), and, in particular, the continuator of Gesner's work - Josias Simler in the 16th century. In the 1630s the Jesuit Jan Wielewicki, whose Diary includes a lot of information about such issues as the authorship of anonymous works - allegedly - according to his own account - gave 65 descriptions of writers from the Jesuits' Polish province to Philip Alegambe who was working on the second version of the Jesuit bibliography. A supplement to it was then to be prepared by Wojciech Wijuk Kojalowicz. Jesuits bibliographies as well as works by Polish Jesuits from that period, many of them lost unfortunately, are an important source for researchers. It is interesting to watch how bibliographic compilations and bibliographies grew quantitatively and improved, and how mistakes were corrected. The presence of mistakes can actually be an indication of how information was circulated and what sources were used.

This article deals with the manuscript of a little known Baroque sermon called 'Rurale Ivaniticum' from the Library of the Prague Crusaders. Its author is the forgotten Carmelite P. Ivanus a S. Ioanne Baptista. The main subject is the usefulness of the manuscript for the study of 18th century popular culture in Bohemia. The sermon by P. Ivanus a S. Ioanne Baptista was aimed almost exclusively at the lower class rural population. Hence the 'Rurale ivaniticum' manuscript provides quite frequent examples of didactically intended folk sayings, as well as attacks on folk demonology and oneiromancy. It is from these parts of the manuscript that a merger of scholarly and folk culture clearly emerges.

(Title in Polish -'O trudnych problemach ostatecznego opracowania i udostepnienia 'wydania III' Bibliografii dziel Jana Kochanowskiego. Komunikat'). In the 1980s the Institute of Literary Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences initiated the compilation of a full bibliography of separate and non-separate editions of Jan Kochanowski's works from the 16th century to the present day. This work continued until 2000 but was not completed. The present article deals with the 'old' part of the bibliography (editions of Kochanowski's works published between the 16th and the 18th centuries), which was planned as the third, updated version of Kazimierz Piekarski's pre-war Bibliography. The authors of this part, the late Krystyna and Wladyslaw Korotaj, compiled it on the basis of a survey sent to all libraries in Poland as well as many libraries abroad, asking them about the current holdings of early editions of Jan Kochanowski's works, and on the basis of the authors' own research and examination of copies recorded earlier. The new bibliography, kept at the Institute of Literary Studies in the form of a computer printout, expands the chronological scope to the end of the 18th century and includes, apart from separate editions of Kochanowski's works, books by other authors containing or quoting Kochanowski's writings in their entirety or in fragments. The bibliographic description was expanded to include a full list of the position of all signatures in all editions of Kochanowski's works and a detailed description of all provenance marks of various copies. The bibliography also takes into account findings of post-war literature on the subject. As a result, we now have a bigger number of known editions of Kochanowski's works (especially David's Psalter). The new bibliography lists about 1040 copies from the 16th and 17th centuries (thus more than the pre-war compilation), and includes their current catalogue numbers in Polish and foreign libraries. This makes it possible to enumerate war losses in various libraries and in many cases - to follow the fate of specific copies. Unfortunately, the bibliography has never been finished; moreover, some descriptions still need to be completed and corrected.

Contemporary philosophers generally conceive of consequence as necessary truth-preservation. They generally construe this necessity as logical, and operationalize it in substitutional, formal or model-theoretic terms as the absence of a counter-example. A minority tradition allows for grounding truth-preservation also on non-logical necessities, especially on the semantics of extra-logical constants. The present article reviews and updates the author's previous proposals to modify the received conception of consequence so as to require truth-preservation to be non-trivial (i.e. not a mere consequence of a necessarily true implicatum or a necessarily untrue implicans) and to allow variants of the substitutional, formal and model-theoretic realizations of the received conception where the condition underwriting truth-preservation is not purely formal. Indeed, the condition may be contingent rather than necessary. Allowing contingent non-trivial truth-preservation as a consequence relation fits our inferential practices, but turns out to be subject to counter-examples. We are left with an unhappy choice between an overly strict requirement that non-trivial truth-preservation be underwritten by a necessary truth and an overly loose recognition of non-trivial truth-preservation wherever some truth underwrites it. We need to look for a principled intermediate position between these alternatives.

In the past thirty years legal argumentation has become an important interdisciplinary field of interest. The study of legal argumentation draws its data, assumptions and methods from disciplines such as legal theory, legal philosophy, logic, argumentation theory, rhetoric, linguistics, literary theory, philosophy, sociology, and artificial intelligence. Researchers with different backgrounds and from various traditions are attempting to explain structural features of legal decision-making and justification from different points of view. The authors describe how argumentation theorists, philosophers, legal theorists, and legal philosophers deal with these problems from different points of view. The authors distinguish three traditions in the study of legal argumentation: the logical, the rhetorical and the dialogical approach. Ideas about the analysis and evaluation of legal argumentation, developed by influential authors in the field, are examined. The contribution is concluded with a more extensive discussion of the pragma-dialectical approach to legal argumentation that integrates rhetorical and dialectical aspects of legal argumentation.

The National Digital Data Archives, the organisation in charge of coordinating the digitisation activities carried out by various Hungarian cultural institutions was launched as a government initiative but aims to reach a professional consensus involving a wide range of collaborating partners. The network structure based on the Open Archives Initiative makes it possible for data owners to make their collections available within a controlled system. As the system is supported out of the central budget, it was designed with the maximum consideration of cost-effectiveness, control and accountability. The application of international standards, the newly launched search engine, the metadata structures elaborated by the expert groups, the free and easily customizable features all play a role in the expansion and enhancement of the system.

It was at the Theresianum College in Wien in the 1770s when Ferenc Szechenyi, founder of the National Library of Hungary, as well as descendants of other library founder aristocratic families were taught about the librarian's professional responsibility by M. Denis, excellent professor of library sciences of that time. From 1845, all the Hungarian reference manuals related to library studies dealt with the question of professional conduct, and ethical requirements were laid down as well. The main theme of the Hungarian librarians' annual meeting in Eger in 1975 was the librarian profession and its ethical aspects. The keynote speech was given by the author of this article. The article evokes the professional debates before, during and after the meeting and formulates new ethical requirements arising from the digital age.

The Eötvös Loránd University has always been considered as one of Hungary's oldest and most prestigious universities. The Department of Library and Information Science (DLIS) of Eötvös Loránd University has also accomplished an outstanding mission in the introduction and implementation of library education in Hungary, and until 1989 it was the only university department providing such tuition and research. Not surprisingly, the DLIS has always been either the pioneer or the leading force in library science Ph.D. and other doctorial activities. Before the change of the political system, more exactly before 1993, there were three types of advanced scientific degrees in Hungary: 1. doctor universitatis (university doctor) abbreviated as: dr. univ.; 2. candidatus scientiarum (candidate of sciences for the doctor's degree of the Hungarian Academy of Science) abbreviated as C.Sc.; 3. doctor scientiarum (doctor of sciences of the Hungarian Academy of Science) abbreviated as D.Sc. The DLIS of Eötvös Loránd University not only issued 164 doctor universitatis diplomas, but worked in the closest cooperation with the Academy of Science to provide C.Sc. and D.Sc. degrees to librarians. Since 1997, the Department of Library and Information Science of Eötvös Loránd University has set up its own multi- and interdisciplinary doctoral program within the framework of the Ph.D. School for Literary Studies at the Faculty of Humanities. The doctor's degree issued by Hungarian universities corresponds in every respect to what is defined and recognized internationally as a Ph.D. degree and the Hungarian system meets all the requirements of the international academic standards. So far nine Ph.D. students have defended their dissertations. The majority of the specialists taking part in their qualification belong to the natural and applied sciences.
