Expat Life

Living in Florence as an integrated import… a unique viewpoint on the experience!

Florence

The past and present of life in Florence, from art and architecture to current events.

Tuscany

Art, sea, mountains, islands, shopping, hiking, culture… Tuscany has it all.

Italy

Italy’s diverse regions merit lengthy exploration. And I’ve vowed to see it all.

Europe

Florence is a central place from which to explore Europe: follow me on my long weekend trips.

Libraries in Florence editable map (Biblioteche di Firenze)

oblatedinotteAt a conference on the use of internet by libraries, archives and museums that I attended the other day (live blog here), Elena Farinelli brought up an interesting fact: if you search “Biblioteca Firenze” on google, only the BNCF comes up on the map. This is because Florentine public institutions, and also the private libraries in town, do not have sufficiently google-friendly websites or have not added themselves to Google Maps.

In order to resolve this problem and to provide a valuable resource to scholars coming to Florence for research, I have created a public, user-editable map of Libraries in Florence.
