Visit of the State Hall of the Austrian National Library

Visit one of the most beautiful historical libraries in the world! Emperor Charles VI ordered the construction of this jewel of secular baroque architecture for his court library. Built in 1723, the state hall with its 200,000 works of printing art from 500 years conveys the authentic image of the baroque universal library of the 18th century.

As president of the ISSI (International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics) I highly welcome the esss initiative. The advantages and opportunities arising from collaboration and participation by members of several leading European institutes are manifold. Surely, students and workers in the field will benefit greatly, not only from the contents of the courses themselves but also by participating in a network of interested parties.
I wish all involved a successful partnership.
