Esta publicación se centra en las cuestiones clave de la biblioteconomía en relación con los periódicos - conservación y acceso - para las que la digitalización constituye un instrumento muy importante. El volumen recoge tanto los desarrollos más recientes como los muchos retos que quedan por afrontar.
