Dağıdılmış kitabxanaların siyahısı

Birminqem Mərkəzi Kitabxanası yanğın nəticəsində məhv olundu, 1879.
Varşava üsyanının süqutundan sonra Nasist-Alman Marka Komando tərəfindən Krasinski Kitabxanasında qəsdən yandırılmış ən qiymətli Polşa inkunabulasının külləri və əlyazmaların olduğu qab

Kitabxanaların qəsdən və ya təsadüfən məhv olunması həmçinin ciddi şəkildə zədələnməsi halları baş verir. Bəzən kitabxana mədəni soyqırım forması kimi qəsdən məhv edilir.[1]

Kitabxanaların təsadüfən insanlar tərəfindən məhv edilməsinə dair nümunələr mövcuddur. Digərləri zəlzələ, daşqın və ya təsadüfi yanğınlar kimi təbii fəlakətlər nəticəsində zərər görüb.

Əsrlər boyu kitabxanalarda yanğınlar təsadüfi olaraq baş verib — görkəmli nümunələrə İsgəndəriyyə Kitabxanasının dağıdılması, Hindistanda Nalanda Kitabxanasının dağıdılması və Almaniyanın Veymar şəhərində Anna Amalia Kitabxanasının təsadüfən yandırılması daxildir.

Səbəbləri və qarşısının alınması

[redaktə | mənbəni redaktə et]

Keçmişdə kif bir çox kitabxanada ciddi problem hesab olunurdu, buna görə də kitabxana dizaynı, məsələn, bitişik mərtəbələrdə rəflərin altında boşluqlar buraxaraq hava axınının artırılmasını vurğulayırdı. Yanğın baş verdikdə, xüsusən də yuxarı mərtəbədən başqa hər hansı bir mərtəbədə başlayarsa, alov hava axını ilə mərtəbədən mərtəbəyə daşınacaq ki, bu da asanlıqla bütün kitabxananın yox olmasına gətirib çıxaracaq[2].

Texnologiyanın inkişafı kitabxananın kolleksiyasının yanğın nəticəsində məhv olma ehtimalını azaldıb. Bunlara su çiləyiciləri, yanğın qapıları, dondurucular, siqnalizasiyalar, tüstü detektorları, yanğın söndürmə sistemləri və qəza generatorları daxildir. Köhnə kitabxanalar adətən hava axınının açılışlarını bağlamaq və yanğın qapıları, siqnalizasiya və çiləyici qurğuların quraşdırılması ilə əvəz olunur. Kondisioner kif problemlərini azaldır. Bütün bunlar yeni kitabxana dizaynının vacib hissələridir.

Kitab yandırıldıqdan sonra onu bərpa etmək mümkün deyil, ona görə də ümumiyyətlə qəbul edilir ki, yanğını su ilə söndürüb sonra kitabları qurutmaq daha yaxşıdır. Kif kağızı məhv etdiyi üçün kitablar quruyana qədər dondurulur. Qeyd olunan proses kitabı zədələyəcək, lakin onu məhv etməyəcək və informasiya toxunulmaz qalacaq.

Yanğın və ya digər səbəblərdən zərərin baş vermə ehtimalını azaltmaq və dağıdıcı hadisədən sonra bərpa üçün tələb olunan vaxtı azaltmaq üçün kitabxanaların fəlakətin idarə edilməsi və bərpa planına ehtiyacı var.

Bundan əlavə, xüsusilə tarixi kitabxanalar üçün vaxtaşırı yanğın təhlükəsizliyi yoxlamaları aparılır. Məsələn, Konqres Kitabxanası 2000-ci ildən bəri hər il yoxlamalardan keçir.[3] 1995-ci il Konqresin Hesabatlılığı Aktından əvvəl Konqres Kitabxanası və bütün Capitol Hill binaları təhlükəsizlik qaydalarından azad idi. Tarixi qoruma və müasir təhlükəsizlik standartları arasında tarazlıq çətin olduğunu sübut edir, çünki "hətta Konqres Kitabxanasının 1997-ci ildə başa çatdırılmış 12 illik təmiri də bir çox yanğın təhlükəsini aradan qaldıra bilmədi".[4] Bununla belə, ABŞ-ın Uyğunluq Ofisi nəzərdən keçirilməsindən sonra, Konqres Kitabxanası “mümkün olan ən yüksək təhlükəsizlik səviyyəsinə nail olmaq” mövzusunda öhdəliyini açıqladı və “Kapitolinin və Konqres Kitabxanasının Memarı hər üç ayda bir tərəqqi barədə məlumat verəcəyini bildirdi”[3].

İnformasiya texnologiyaları — yanğından hərtərəfli qorunmanın başqa bir səbəbidir. Kitabxanalarda bu qədər kompüter olduğundan, daha çox istilik yaradan və potensial yanğın mənbələrinin sayını artıran daha çox çıxışın istifadəsini tələb edən "yer sahəsinin azalması və daha kiçik, daha güclü kompüter sistemlərinin artması" var.[5] Hələ 1950-ci illərdə kompüter avadanlığının və onun yerləşdiyi binaların potensial təhlükələri tanınırdı. Beləliklə, 1962-ci ildə Milli Yanğından Mühafizə Assosiasiyası elektron kompüter sistemləri üçün xüsusi olaraq tətbiq edilən ilk təhlükəsizlik standartlarını hazırlamağa başladı.[5] Bu standart NFPA 75 İnformasiya Texnologiyası Avadanlığının Mühafizəsi adlanır. FM Global Data Sheet 5-32 yalnız yanğından deyil, həm də sudan, enerji itkisindən və s.-dən qorunmaq üçün tövsiyələri ehtiva edən başqa bir standartdır.

Załuski Library Warsaw Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth/German-occupied Poland
(General Government) 		1794/1944 Imperial Russian Army/Nazi German troops After the Kościuszko Uprising (1794), Russian troops, acting on orders from Czarina Catherine II, seized the library's holdings and transported them to her personal collection at Saint Petersburg, where a year later it formed the cornerstone of the newly founded Imperial Public Library.[28] Parts of the collections were damaged or destroyed as they were mishandled while being removed from the library and transported to Russia, and many were stolen.[28][29] According to the historian Joachim Lelewel, the Zaluskis' books, "could be bought at Grodno by the basket".[28] The collection was later dispersed among several Russian libraries. Some parts of the Zaluski collection came back to Poland on two separate dates in the nineteenth century: 1842 and 1863.[28] Government of the re-established Second Polish Republic reclaimed in the 1920s some of the former Załuski Library holdings from the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic following the Treaty of Riga. The original building was destroyed by the Germans during World War II. German soldiers also deliberately destroyed the collection (held in the Krasiński Library at the time - see below) during the planned destruction of Warsaw in October 1944, after collapse of the Warsaw Uprising.[30][31][29] Only 1800 manuscripts and 30,000 printed materials from the original library survived the war. After the war, the original building was rebuilt under the Polish People's Republic.[32][33]
Library of Congress Washington, D.C. United States 1814 Troops of the British Army The library was destroyed during the War of 1812 when British forces set fire to the U.S. Capitol during the Burning of Washington.[34] This attack was retaliation for the burning of the Canadian towns of York and Niagara by American troops in 1813.[35] Soon after its destruction, the Library of Congress was reestablished, largely thanks to the purchase of Thomas Jefferson's personal library in 1815. A second fire on December 24, 1851, destroyed a large portion of the Library of Congress' collection again, however, resulting in the loss of about two-thirds of the Thomas Jefferson collection and an estimated 35,000 books in total.[36]
Several libraries Mexico City and major Mexican cities Mexico 1856-1867 Liberal troops and anti-clericalists During and after the Mexican Reform War, under the liberal governments of Benito Juárez and Ignacio Comonfort, many convent libraries and Church owned school libraries were sacked or destroyed by Liberal troops and looters, most notably included San Francisco Convent Library, which had over 16,000 books (great majority of them were unique collections of Spanish colonial era productions), the library was totally destroyed. Other important libraries included San Agustín Convent Library, was looted and burned. The Carmen de San Ángel Convent and its library were also totally destroyed (with a few books recovered), other affected convent libraries to different degrees were those of Santo Domingo, Las Capuchinas, Santa Clara, La Merced and the Church owned school Colegio de San Juan de Letrán, among others, all of them in Mexico City. Similar events happened all over Mexico, especially in major cities. Besides books, other items such as altarpieces, unique collections of colonial period Baroque paintings, crosses, sculptures, gold and silver chalices (often robbed and melted) were also lost. Total estimates place the total of lost books and manuscripts at 100,000 by 1884.[37][38]

(General Government) 		1944 Nazi German troops The library (which housed the collections of the former Zamoyski Academy) was deliberately set ablaze by the Nazi German troops in the aftermath of the suppression of the Warsaw Uprising of 1944. The burning of this library was part of the general planned destruction of Warsaw. Depending on source, 1800 to 3000 items constituting only 1.5% to 3% of the original collection (albeit the most valuable part) survived, partially due to the fact that the troops burning the library did not notice the entrance to the basement at the rear side of the building.[53]
