约束理论及其对高校图书馆管理的启示

Theory of Constraint & Its Revelation to the Management of University Libraries

首先简要介绍了约束理论的发展过程以及约束、目标理论、五大核心步骤和DBR计划与控制模型等约束理论的基本概念和理论核心 ;其次探讨了约束理论对高校图书馆管理的启示。本文认为 ,在高校图书馆的目标管理中 ,一方面应理清其最终目标———为读者提供文献信息服务 ,另一方面有必要也有可能建立起科学合理可计量的管理指标体系。图书馆的约束环节是“读者需求调查” ,在制定工作计划时应以约束环节为核心 。

Firstly,this paper introduces the evolution course of Theory of Constraint(TOC)and some basic concepts such as constraint,theory of object,five core steps and DBR model.Then,it discusses the revelation of TOC to the management of university libraries.This paper holds that in the management of the object of university libraries,on the one hand,its final object should be made clear, that is,offering literature and information to readers,on the other hand,it's necessary and also possible to establish a scientific and measurable management index system.The constraint of libraries is the investigation of readers'demand,when we make work plan,we should focus on this constraint and set a buffer before the constraint so as to save up the information demanded by the readers initially.
