ABSTRACT
SUMMARY. Efforts on reconstruction of the National and University Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo, completely destroyed August 25, 1992, include the reconstruction of its collections in various formats, including digital replicas. Guidelines were taken from a 1910 Declaration on establishing literary archives of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Newly worded in 2000, the Declaration is an attempt at creating digital archives in conformity with SGML, using commercially available software for in-house training of students at the Department for Comparative Literature and Librarianship of the University of Sarajevo. In a period of less than three years, the digital collection has grown to forty SGML textual instances based on ISO 12083:1994 DTD Book and TEI Lite v. 1.6 DTD. Both types of document type definition were translated into 56Bosnian and several other SGML-aware tools were created for a two-way correspondence between DTD instances.
