Abstract

The Belgrade University Library has successfully realized many projects with international and national funding since 2000. Many of these projects have laid foundations for the current working processes that define some of the dominant vectors of development of the library and information sector in Serbia and the region. This paper presents some of the most important results of project activities at the Belgrade University Library in the previous period and describes the most important and most successfully implemented projects with national and international funding. The results and management of these projects have been discussed and the possibilities for further development of the library and information sector in Serbia through the successful implementation of project activities and the combination of project and regular work activities as a strategic orientation of library management.
