- Descripción
- The Social Museum (1909), as a centre producer and distributor of statistical information, is analyzed through the figure of its librarian: Cebrià de Montoliu. A quantitative presentation is done of the information section of the Museum describing its products, activities and statistics of use of the service and the type of its users. Also the section of the library specialized in economic and financial information is analyzed, presenting/displaying the statistics of the acquisition, cataloguing, classification and loan of books and magazines. The author settles down a comparison between the work made by the Social Museum and the Comissió Mixta de Coordinació Estadística (Joint Commission of Statistical Coordination) (1969), that later became the Consortium of Information and Documentation of Catalunya (CIDC), and finally, in 1989 the Institut d'Estadística of Catalunya (Idescat).
