oai:ojs.www4063.vu.lt:article/5334With its about 110 museums taking care of about 6.5 million objects, Lithuania can be proud to have an adequate and varied museum provision. This does not mean that the situation is fully satisfactory. The post-1990 transition period has still left some issues unresolved, one of them being the perception of the social role of museums by the responsible authorities and the financing of museums accordingly. Based on a thorough analysis of Lithuanian museums, the present study takes a clear position about the potential of museums as public memory institutions in an informatikon society. [...]Turėdama apie 110 muziejų, besirūpinančių maždaug 6,5 milijono muziejinių objektų, Lietuva gali didžiuotis įvairiu ir adekvačiu muziejų tinklu. Tačiau tai dar nereiškia, kad situacija yra visiškai normali. 1990 metų perėjimo laikotarpis paliko neišspręstų klausimų, vienas iš jų–atsakingų institucijų požiūris į muziejų socialinį vaidmenį ir atitinkamas jų veiklos finansavimas.

Traditional and Health-Related Philanthropy: The Role of Resources and Personality
I study the relationships of resources and personality characteristics to charitable giving, postmortem organ donation, and blood donation in a nationwide sample of persons in households in the Netherlands. I find that specific personality characteristics are related to specific types of giving: agreeableness to blood donation, empathic concern to charitable giving, and prosocial value orientation to postmortem organ donation. I find that giving has a consistently stronger relation to human and social capital than to personality. Human capital increases giving; social capital increases giving only when it is approved by others. Effects of prosocial personality characteristics decline at higher levels of these characteristics. Effects of empathic concern, helpfulness, and social value orientations on generosity are mediated by verbal proficiency and church attendance.
