As estantes que a Bibliotheca Nacional +possue acham-se longe, muito longe, de corresponder ás condições +exigiveis para acondicionamento de especies raras e preciosas, +accrescendo a triste circumstancia de não ter a Bibliotheca, em sua +pequenissima dotação, recursos pecuniarios para a conveniente reforma de +taes estantes. + +O mesmo direi com respeito á verba decretada para compra de livros, +assiguatura de revistas extrangeiras, e despeza indeclinavel de +incadernações: é escassissima, e deficientissima a quantia destinada +para taes incargos. + +Escasso e deficiente é, não menos, o quadro dos funccionarios,--resultando +d'esse facto que ainda estão apenas em projecto (projecto por ora +platonico!) alguns dos mais indispensaveis Catalogos (v. g. um Catalogo +alphabetico geral por nomes de auctores; um Catalogo por tilulos de obras; +Catalogos methodicos das diversas especialidades; e um Catalogo-Diccionario +por especificação singular de materias, como actualmente se vai usando com +muito proveito nalgumas bibliothecas dos Estados Unidos da America). + +Querem estas deficiencias significar pouco interêsse de quem na +Bibliotheca Nacional tem superintendido? por fórma nenhuma. Significam +ellas apenas a ausencia dos indispensaveis recursos. + +Do impenho que altos funccionarios teem mostrado pelo ingrandecimento da +Bibliotheca, foram exemplos frisantes a personalidade distinctissima de +José Feliciano de Castilho (digno continuador de Antonio Ribeiro dos +Santos), a actividade energica de Silva Tullio (que frequentes vezes +desimpenhou interinamente as funcções de Bibliothecario-Mór), e o +incansavel zelo do erudito Director a quem succedi em 1902 na gerencia +da Bibliotheca (o Sr. Gabriel Pereira, que hoje exerce as funcções de +Inspector das Bibliothecas e Archivos Nacionaes). + +Em conclusão do que deixo laconicamente expendido (e muito haveria que +particularizar sobre o assumpto), a Academia das Sciencias de Portugal, +que sobremaneira me distinguiu constituindo-me seu delegado e seu +interprete perante o Congresso Nacional, emitte os seguintes votos: + +1.º--Que o Governo de Sua Majestade Fidelissima resolva proceder com a +maxima brevidade á construcçao de um edificio especial, destinado +exclusivamente á Bibliotheca Nacional de Lisboa, edificio por todas as +faces completamente isolado, e absolutamente disposto em harmonia com as +prescripções que para taes institutos determina a hygiene,--hygiene em +relação aos livros e mais especies congeneres, hygiene em relação aos +leitores, e hygiene em relação aos funccionarios; + +2.º--Que o mesmo Governo proceda urgentemente á indispensavel ampliação +dos aposentos que actualmente usufrue a Bibliotheca Nacional, para que +esta, provisoriamente (emquanto se lhe não constróe definitivo +edificio), possa bem accommodar as suas especies; + +3.º--Que á Bibliotheca sejam fornecidos os meios pecuniarios para +adquirir o mobiliario conveniente á boa arrumação e conservação das +especies na Bibliotheca arrecadadas; + +4.º--Que a dotação annual da Bibliotheca Nacional seja sufficientemente +augmentada, para que se possam adquirir, por compra, importantissimas +obras, de que, perante a exiguidade ridicula da actual dotação, nos fica +tolhido alcançar exemplares; + +5.º--Que o quadro do pessoal seja convenientemente ampliado com +funccionarios idoneos e que tenham o amor do officio, funccionarios +escolhidos sempre em concurso do provas públicas (concurso em que a +decisão do jury technico seja respeitada), funccionarios condignamente +remunerados,--conseguindo-se, por essa ampliação do quadro, organizar +num breve lapso de tempo todos os Catalogos indispensaveis á consulta +dos estudiosos, e realizar todos os mais serviços correlativos; + +6.º--Que a todas as outras Bibliothecas públicas do nosso paiz se +appliquem, dentro das suas especiaes necessidades, e conforme as +circumstancias peculiares exijam, reformas analogas ás que ficam +summariamente expostas para a Bibliotheca Nacional de Lisboa. + + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's A Bibliotheca Nacional, by Xavier da Cunha + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A BIBLIOTHECA NACIONAL *** + +***** This file should be named 34622-8.txt or 34622-8.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/3/4/6/2/34622/ + +Produced by Mike Silva + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included.

nem creio mesmo +que possam nunca taes desejos converter-se ahi numa realidade, pois que +(segundo o tem sempre mostrado a experiencia) de um convento nada mais +se pode fazer do que... outro convento.</p> + +<p>Ora advirta-se que, no tempo de Castilho, a parte do Convento destinada +á Bibliotheca Nacional, posto que lhe escasseassem as condições +proprias, era ainda sufficientemente ampla para accommodação das +especies existentes.</p> + +<p>E ainda em 1886, quando, por concurso de provas públicas, eu alli tive +ingresso, na categoria de Segundo-Conservador, sobejava o espaço a ponto +de poderem ser facultados gabinetes especiaes ao isolado trabalho de +certos estudiosos.</p> + +<p>São todavia decorridos, desde então, pouco mais de vinte annos—e foi +quanto bastou para que a affluencia das especies, quotidianamente +adquiridas, invadisse todos os recantos,—assuberbando-nos o receio de +não termos em breve onde accommodar novas acquisições.</p> + +<p>Nos meus relatorios trimestraes, que o <i>Boletim das Bibliothecas e +Archivos Nacionaes</i> costuma sempre publicar, tenho eu frequentemente +instado por que nos sejam cedidos os aposentos occupados pelas +repartições do Governo Civil, transferindo-se essas para outro local,—e +no mesmo sentido representou depois a Academia Real das Sciencias de +Lisboa; infelizmente, porêm, similhantes instancias ainda até hoje não +obtiveram resultado algum.</p> + +<p>Com a falta do espaço coincide a pobreza do mobiliario, e não sómente +pobreza, mas impropriedade. As estantes que a Bibliotheca Nacional +possue acham-se longe, muito longe, de corresponder ás condições +exigiveis para acondicionamento de especies raras e preciosas, +accrescendo a triste circumstancia de não ter a Bibliotheca, em sua +pequenissima dotação, recursos pecuniarios para a conveniente reforma de +taes estantes.</p> + +<p>O mesmo direi com respeito á verba decretada para compra de livros, +assiguatura de revistas extrangeiras, e despeza indeclinavel de +incadernações: é escassissima, e deficientissima a quantia destinada +para taes incargos.</p> + +<p>Escasso e deficiente é, não menos, o quadro dos +funccionarios,—resultando d'esse facto que ainda estão apenas em +projecto (projecto por ora platonico!) alguns dos mais indispensaveis +Catalogos (v. g. um Catalogo alphabetico geral por nomes de auctores; um +Catalogo por tilulos de obras; Catalogos methodicos das diversas +especialidades; e um Catalogo-Diccionario por especificação singular de +materias, como actualmente se vai usando com muito proveito nalgumas +bibliothecas dos Estados Unidos da America).</p> + +<p>Querem estas deficiencias significar pouco interêsse de quem na +Bibliotheca Nacional tem superintendido? por fórma nenhuma. Significam +ellas apenas a ausencia dos indispensaveis recursos.</p> + +<p>Do impenho que altos funccionarios teem mostrado pelo ingrandecimento da +Bibliotheca, foram exemplos frisantes a personalidade distinctissima de +José Feliciano de Castilho (digno continuador de Antonio Ribeiro dos +Santos), a actividade energica de Silva Tullio (que frequentes vezes +desimpenhou interinamente as funcções de Bibliothecario-Mór), e o +incansavel zelo do erudito Director a quem succedi em 1902 na gerencia +da Bibliotheca (o Sr. Gabriel Pereira, que hoje exerce as funcções de +Inspector das Bibliothecas e Archivos Nacionaes).</p> + +<p>Em conclusão do que deixo laconicamente expendido (e muito haveria que +particularizar sobre o assumpto), a Academia das Sciencias de Portugal, +que sobremaneira me distinguiu constituindo-me seu delegado e seu +interprete perante o Congresso Nacional, emitte os seguintes votos:</p> + +<p>1.º—Que o Governo de Sua Majestade Fidelissima resolva proceder com a +maxima brevidade á construcçao de um edificio especial, destinado +exclusivamente á Bibliotheca Nacional de Lisboa, edificio por todas as +faces completamente isolado, e absolutamente disposto em harmonia com as +prescripções que para taes institutos determina a hygiene,—hygiene em +relação aos livros e mais especies congeneres, hygiene em relação aos +leitores, e hygiene em relação aos funccionarios;</p> + +<p>2.º—Que o mesmo Governo proceda urgentemente á indispensavel ampliação +dos aposentos que actualmente usufrue a Bibliotheca Nacional, para que +esta, provisoriamente (emquanto se lhe não constróe definitivo +edificio), possa bem accommodar as suas especies;</p> + +<p>3.º—Que á Bibliotheca sejam fornecidos os meios pecuniarios para +adquirir o mobiliario conveniente á boa arrumação e conservação das +especies na Bibliotheca arrecadadas;</p> + +<p>4.º—Que a dotação annual da Bibliotheca Nacional seja sufficientemente +augmentada, para que se possam adquirir, por compra, importantissimas +obras, de que, perante a exiguidade ridicula da actual dotação, nos fica +tolhido alcançar exemplares;</p> + +<p>5.º—Que o quadro do pessoal seja convenientemente ampliado com +funccionarios idoneos e que tenham o amor do officio, funccionarios +escolhidos sempre em concurso do provas públicas (concurso em que a +decisão do jury technico seja respeitada), funccionarios condignamente +remunerados,—conseguindo-se, por essa ampliação do quadro, organizar +num breve lapso de tempo todos os Catalogos indispensaveis á consulta +dos estudiosos, e realizar todos os mais serviços correlativos;</p> + +<p>6.º—Que a todas as outras Bibliothecas públicas do nosso paiz se +appliquem, dentro das suas especiaes necessidades, e conforme as +circumstancias peculiares exijam, reformas analogas ás que ficam +summariamente expostas para a Bibliotheca Nacional de Lisboa.</p> +</div> + + + + + + + + +<pre> + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's A Bibliotheca Nacional, by Xavier da Cunha + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A BIBLIOTHECA NACIONAL *** + +***** This file should be named 34622-h.htm or 34622-h.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/3/4/6/2/34622/ + +Produced by Mike Silva + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.
