Abstract

ERASMUS and its related programmes offer important opportunities to many scholarly fields of education and training such as Library, Information and Archive Science. These opportunities also bring cultural interaction between the countries and students. Bulgaria, Croatia and Turkey, 3 countries that share lots of similarities through their cultures but they have many differences in their everyday lives. They share a part of history but, more important, are keen to build a common future. One of the efforts on that path was an ERASMUS IP ‘Library, Information and Cultural Management – Academic Summer School’ (2011-ЕRA-IP-7) held in Sofia in fall 2011. This paper focuses on the analysis of the programme, in terms of organization, resources involved and lessons learned as well as current and international experiences of programme participants.
