Sažetak
Health statistics is an essential part of medical research. It continuously improves through correcting or broadening its methodology and approaches in order to come closer to the evidence-based principles, which are the foundation of the modern historical- medical research. However, due to unavailability or partial preservation of archival material, and different and unmatched approaches in reporting the health data, there are a multitude of problems and doubts in methodology and dana analysis and interpretation. The cornerstone of our research is primarily the archival fond of the Land Government, Health Department that corresponds to the official publications, which are stored and available in the Library of the Croatian State Archives (HDA) in Zagreb. However, another part of these valuable publications, which serves us for studying of all important segments of life in the Habsburg Monarchy, is unavailable because it is stored in foreign archives. We think that it is necessary to initiate cooperation of HDA and foreign archives that store and take care of the publications, in order to solve the problems that arose during the research. Only in that way can the archival/librarian material be collected and made available to the users in the region. We justify the necessity of networking and good cooperation by the fact that archives and libraries have valuable official publications about which the information is insufficient or unavailable. Also, they have similar users who very often ask the same questions, participate in joint scientific research projects, and publish the results in the scientific journals or journals of their institutions. Only by successful and functional connection of special archives and libraries in similar scientific disciplines and fields at national level, and inclusion into the national information service with the purpose of satisfying the information need of scientific community, can we fulfill the mission and vision of international cooperation of archives and libraries.
