При исследовании был использован набор индикаторов, составляющих основу модели для периодического мониторинга уровня развития ЦТ. Исследование проводилось в июле и августе 2024 г. среди 27 региональных библиотек Болгарии.</p><p>Интерес к данной теме обусловлен продолжающимся процессом модернизации различных организаций, включая библиотеки, под влиянием стремительного развития информационно-коммуникационных технологий (ИКТ) и формирования нового интеллектуального информационного общества (ИИО). Сегодня ЦТ рассматривается как заключительный этап интеграции ИКТ в организационные структуры и процессы, что, в свою очередь, приводит к значительным изменениям в отдельных подсистемах или в организации в целом. Таким образом, можно утверждать, что достигнутый уровень ЦТ соответствует степени вовлечённости в ИИО. Кроме того, вопросы, связанные с ЦТ и адаптацией к ИИО, важны для понимания текущих социальных, общественных и экономических процессов. В настоящее время существует нехватка конкретных данных о реализации и последствиях ЦТ в организациях, особенно в библиотеках.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>In the study, the data on implementation of new digital technologies into Bulgarian regional libraries and their preparedness for digital transformation (DT) are analyzed. For this purpose, the set of indicators formed the foundation for the model of periodic monitoring of DT development degree. The study was conducted during July and August 2024 among 27 regional libraries in Bulgaria. The interest in this topic is driven by the ongoing process of modernization across various organizations, including libraries, and influenced by the rapid advancement of information and communication technologies (ICT) and the formation of a new intelligent information society (IIS). Today, the digital transformation is viewed as the final stage of integrating ICT into organisational structures and processes, which, in its turn, drives to significant changes in individual organizational subsystems or the organization as a whole. Thus, it could be argued that the achieved level of DT corresponds to the degree of engagement with the IIS. Besides, the issues related to DT and adaptation to IIS are crucial for understanding the prevailing social, societal and economic processes. Currently, there is a lack of specific data on the implementation and the effects of DT in organizations, particularly libraries.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>цифровая трансформация</kwd><kwd>цифровая готовность</kwd><kwd>болгарские публичные библиотеки</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>digital transformation</kwd><kwd>digital readiness</kwd><kwd>Bulgarian public libraries</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Это исследование финансируется Европейским Союзом через программу NextGenerationEU в рамках Национального плана восстановления и устойчивости Республики Болгария, проект SUMMIT BG-RRP-2.004-0008-C01</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">This study is sponsored by the European Union via NextGenerationEU program within the national Bulgarian Recovery and Resilience Plan and Sustainability, Project SUMMIT BG-RRP-2.004-0008-C01.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Elaiess R.
