    Author described the context of the development of technological and social relationships and how they mutually made changes on ways how people interact with information and access to knowledge.‭ The development of societies changed significantly the role of libraries and posed new technological and other challenges due to the development of information technologies.‭ Since the development of information technologies caused expansion of production capacities in societies there was additional need to standardize production of formats of access,‭ ‬distribution,‭ ‬archiving of information.‭ ‬Due to democratic character of many developed societies openness of information and human rights emphasized an importance of legal aspects and rights of persons with disabilities.‭ ‬Author mentioned articles of the UN Convention of Rights of Persons with Disabilities which required that parties which ratified convention should implement accessibility standards for persons with disabilities.‭ ‬Author presented standards and technical specifications that define accessibility of web interface,‭ ‬computer software and file formats.‭ ‬It is especially emphasized that those standards are important in libraries.‭ ‬Modern libraries should adopt and use file formats which are accessible for persons with disabilities in order to avoid risk of increased discrimination against persons with disabilities if inaccessible technologies will be used.‭ ‬Author believes that this would help persons with disability to use library resources and services equally as other users do.

    The Public Service Media and Public Service Internet Manifesto

    Full text link
    This open access book presents the collectively authored Public Service Media and Public Service Internet Manifesto and accompanying materials. The Manifesto can be signed by visiting http://bit.ly/signPSManifesto The Internet and the media landscape are broken. The dominant commercial Internet platforms endanger democracy. They have created a communications landscape overwhelmed by surveillance, advertising, fake news, hate speech, conspiracy theories, and algorithmic politics. Commercial Internet platforms have harmed citizens, users, everyday life, and society. Democracy and digital democracy require Public Service Media. A democracy-enhancing Internet requires Public Service Media becoming Public Service Internet platforms – an Internet of the public, by the public, and for the public; an Internet that advances instead of threatens democracy and the public sphere. The Public Service Internet is based on Internet platforms operated by a variety of Public Service Media, taking the public service remit into the digital age. The Public Service Internet provides opportunities for public debate, participation, and the advancement of social cohesion. Accompanying the Manifesto are materials that informed its creation: Christian Fuchs’ report of the results of the Public Service Media/Internet Survey, the written version of Graham Murdock’s online talk on public service media today, and a summary of an ecomitee.com discussion of the Manifesto’s foundations.

    Christian Fuchs liefert in seiner ausgezeichneten Einführung eine sehr gute Einführung in die digitalen Teile der Welt aus Sicht der politischen Ökonomie. Diese Sicht ermöglicht eine präzise Übersicht über Prozesse, die überhaupt nicht so unübersichtlich sind, wie das oft behauptet wird, sondern recht überschaubar mit dem Widerspruch von Kapital und Arbeit verstanden werden können. Besonders erfreulich ist, dass Fuchs nicht im Duktus des Bedauerns argumentiert, sondern konstruktive und nachhaltige Handlungsmöglichkeiten aufzeigt.In his excellent introduction, Christian Fuchs provides a very good introduction of the digital parts of the world from the perspective of political economy. This view enables a precise overview of processes that are not as confusing as is often claimed, but can be understood quite straightforwardly in terms of the contradiction between capital and labour. It is particularly gratifying that Fuchs does not argue in terms of regret, but instead points out constructive and sustainable options for action
