Impact of the Public Library District Model on Local Funding of Public Libraries in New York State

For more than a decade the Regents of the State of New York have recommended that public and association libraries in the state become public library districts with independent taxing authority. The Regents contend that such districts are preferable for several reasons, in particular for more reliable and higher per capita funding for library services. This study, using data provided by the New York State Education Department, examined the funding of all public libraries in New York during a ten-year period. The study found that while public library districts did demonstrate more reliable funding over time, they did not see improved per capita funding as compared to other library types found in the state.     

Trends in Public Library Design from the 19th to the 21st Centuries

In the early 19th century, public libraries in America tended toward grand appearances befitting seriousness of purpose. Library design changed gradually throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, and more dramatically with automation and new technology. True to its roots, the public library continues to maintain areas for quiet, individual study. But, in addition, today’s library has become a cultural center in the community, offering art galleries, auditoriums, meeting rooms, spaces for collaborative work, digital information and instruction, and even cafés. Change is inevitable, as innovations in library design and patron use illustrate. Yet, from the earliest libraries to modern times, one overarching constant defines their purpose: libraries inspire.     

The role of the health information professional

This virtual issue has been published to mark the CILIP Health Libraries Group 2014 Conference, taking place in Oxford on 24th and 25th July 2014. The issue's theme is to highlight the key role of the health information professional and it shines a spotlight on professional expertise, demonstrating what we can share and learn from each other. It comprises a collection of articles published in the Health Information and Libraries Journal during the last 2 years but is very much about looking forward. The articles selected embrace three main themes: new ways of working; acquiring new skills and competencies; and fine‐tuning existing skills and practices. The virtual issue mirrors the format of the regular journal, namely a review article, six original articles and the three regular features, covering Dissertations into Practice, International Perspectives and Initiatives and Learning and Teaching in Action. All articles included in this virtual issue are available free online.

我国地方性公共图书馆立法成就、效果与问题

图书馆法是图书馆事业发展的法律保障。我国目前已经有10多个省、市、自治区颁布了地方性公共图书馆法规。这些法规的颁布为我国公共图书馆事业发展带来了契机,使我国公共图书馆事业得到了快速的发展。然而,受地方性立法的局限,我国公共图书馆事业尚存在一些未能解决的普遍性问题,有待于制订全国性的公共图书馆法予以解决。     

对市级公共图书馆地方文献资源建设的思考

地方文献是各级公共图书馆馆藏特色资源建设的重要内容。本文对市级公共图书馆地方文献资源建设的基本经验进行了总结,分析了目前市级公共图书馆地方文献资源建设中存在的主要问题,并对地方文献资源建设提出了具体的措施和办法。     

State Standards,Planning, and Public Library Size

Data from a 1992 survey of compliance by Ohio public libraries with state standards were used to examine relationships between achievement of a planning standard and each of 22 size variables. Significant but. weak correlations were found between planning scores and population of the service area, volumes per capita, number of ALA/MLS employees per capita, interlibrary loans to the library, and interlibrary loans from the library. Findings suggest that library size as traditionally measured may not have a substantial influence on a library's capacity to engage in long range planning.     

Space and the Social Worth of Public Libraries

In spite of the growth of digital information and the resultant questioning by some of the value of public libraries, library usage data indicate there were 497,600,000 more visits to public libraries in 2013 than in 1993. Why do people still visit public libraries in the digital age? While many factors drive people to visit public libraries, one thing that public libraries offer that cannot be duplicated online is physical space. Over the decades, library space has been the glue holding the library universe together even as the specific activities that take inside libraries have evolved. While public libraries do an excellent job of promoting their important role in providing access to information, educational resources, technology, and a host of valuable services, they must also promote the value of public library space itself. This requires more than trotting out numbers; it requires telling compelling stories of how public library space is used and reminding the public that the kind of spaces public libraries provide are, in fact, a vanishing resource. The post-911 tightening of security in public buildings of all sorts—coupled with the increasing privatization of what were once public spaces—has left public libraries as perhaps the last remaining indoor public spaces where an individual can remain from opening until closing without needing any reason to be there and without having to spend any money. Public libraries should promote the uniqueness of their spaces in much the same way that National Parks promote the unique spaces they preserve and make available to the public.

公共图书馆基本服务研究

公共图书馆基本服务是利用各类文献信息资源,保障和满足公众基本信息和阅读需求的公益服务行为,它具有公益性、均等性、基本性、便利性等特征。其内容主要包括文献资料借阅服务、咨询与信息服务、读者活动服务和基层服务四个方面。目前,我国公共图书馆基本服务的公益性尚未完全实现,普遍性尚待进一步加强,均等性尚需进一步规范,相关制度亟待进一步完善。参照国外图书馆相关法规,我国公共图书馆基本服务应遵循公平、公正、效益原则,免费服务原则,关注特殊群体原则,提高服务质量原则。表2。参考文献25。     

地方公共文化相关法规与公共图书馆发展

随着地方性公共文化相关法规内容的逐步深化和拓展,公共图书馆领域相关法规体系越来越完善,内容涵盖设施建设、服务供给、经费支持与人才队伍建设、管理体制、社会力量参与等方面,并在制度上有所突破创新。为逐步实现公共图书馆领域法治化、体系化发展,未来应着重在以下方面有所突破:制定城乡互动政策,建设城乡对接的总分馆体系;探索确立需求调研机制,加大资源配送力度;注重图书馆各类从业者的持续培训,实行持证上岗政策;设立公共图书馆发展专项资金,实现财政预算专项制度化;完善绩效评估体系,各项工作指标有法可依。参考文献51。     

论公共图书馆的外部性

公共图书馆具有正外部性,公共图书馆可以增加读者的福利,而读者并不是相应成本的承担者,二者之间并没有交换关系来协调彼此的利益关系。公共图书馆的外部性体现在提高人力资本含量、减少社会排斥和实践民主这三个层面。政府立法和治理结构的实现形式这两种公共政策对公共图书馆外部性的发挥起着决定性作用。     

论公共图书馆网站建设

简要论述公共图书馆网站目前现状及存在的问题，并对发展公共图书馆网站从设立建站目标、受众定位、深化网站内容与服务、页面设计等方面作了有益的探讨。     

公共图书馆的效率研究

公共图书馆效率地位、效率责任、效率衡量具有不同于私营部门的特殊表现。公共图书馆体制性浪费、读者需求难以把握、监督激励不足是导致效率低下的特殊成因。因此,优化资源配置、建立治理结构、打破垄断地位、开展绩效评估、完善激励机制,是提高公共图书馆效率的针对性措施。     

多数民间图书馆属于公共图书馆——兼论古越藏书楼的公共图书馆性质

民间图书馆属于公共图书馆这一观点在学术界有争议,其核心原因是学者们未能厘清公共图书馆的属性。公共图书馆表现出面向社会公众开放、免费、开展社会教育等属性。民间图书馆也表现出面向社会公众服务、公共物品、承担社会教育等属性。民间图书馆的公共图书馆社会合理性可从社会公众认可、国家法规制度保障和政府行政认可三方面考量。古越藏书楼是我国现代意义最早的民间图书馆,也是最早的公共图书馆,在当时的社会教育中具有启蒙和开新之价值。
