- Abstract
The German National Library in Leipzig will be renovated and rebuilt starting from October 2023. During the construction work, parts of the library will remain accessible, but other areas such as the reading room for humanities and the reading room for natural sciences/technology will not be accessible. A central information center for visitors will be created, and group workspaces will be set up. The construction work is expected to be completed by August 2024. In addition, the winners of the YES! school competition will be announced, where innovative ideas for sustainable supply chains, healthcare, animal welfare, and financial education were presented. The winning teams have developed solutions such as an online platform for the allocation of available container spaces in shipping and an app to check the availability of medications. The ZBW - Leibniz Information Center for Economics has published a study on audio gamification in intelligent virtual assistants. The laboratory experiment with 81 participants shows that pure acoustic gamification positively influences motivation and performance in the use of voice assistants. The results of the study have implications for AI-supported learning and show that audio gamification can enhance motivation and performance, provide feedback and rewards, improve accessibility, and enrich the learning experience. The ZBW - Leibniz Information Center for Economics has launched a consortium called "OLECon Konsort" to promote science-led diamond open access journals in economics. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and aims to professionalize science-led publishing and improve the dissemination of research results. The concept of science-led diamond open access allows free access to academic journals whose rights belong to scientific publishers and non-commercial publishers. The ZBW aims to establish and sustain this model in the long term. The consortium collaborates with various partners to develop and implement best practices for scholar-led publishing. The Bavarian State Library in Munich presents an exhibition on the library plans of architect Max Dudler. The exhibition includes models, plans, and photographs of his built libraries, as well as personal perspectives from photographers. There are also films that allow virtual walks through various libraries. The exhibition is open from October 20, 2023, to February 4, 2024. The Bavarian State Library is Germany's largest academic universal library and has the largest digital database of all German libraries.
