National Digital Library project under heavy fire

Two days after Alena Hanáková (TOP 09-STAN) became culture minister she wrote National Library director Tomáš Böhm asking him to postpone signing the acceptance protocol of the Kč 255 million National Digital Library implementation project. If he signed the document, the National Library would de facto be approving the digitalization solution designed by local firm Logica; critics of the untested system still hope the contract can be cancelled.
