走向用户中心:公共图书馆体系对个体发展影响的理论解读

Towards User-Centered:A Theoretical Analysis on the Effect of Public Library System upon Individuals' Development

文章基于用户中心的视角,从理论层面解析公共图书馆体系在实现个体信息富裕化、参与教育活动和促进个体学习三个方面的职能。就实现个体信息富裕化而言,个人信息世界理论提供了理解信息贫富分化现象的整体性视角、工具和证据,从而为解释公共图书馆作为促进个体信息富裕化的制度安排的合理性提供了依据。就参与教育活动而言,公共图书馆体系顺应了教育本质,为公民终生学习提供了条件,实现了文化的内化,为开放教育提供了可能并为学习者提供了重要的隐性课程资源。就促进个体学习而言,行为主义和认知学派等学习理论流派从不同视角为图书馆职业促进个体学习行为的心理机制提供了解释。基于用户中心视角解读公共图书馆体系的职能,对公共图书馆体系明确地位价值并设计合理的发展路径具有重要启示。

Based on the user-centered perspective, the research sheds light on the functions of public library system from a theoretical level on three aspects ： fulfilling the information richness of users, taking part in edu- cational process and promoting learning behavior of individuals. For the aspect of users＇ information, the theory of Information World of Individuals provides a comprehensive view, tools and evidences for the under- standing of the rich-poor divide in information rich. Thus, it also provides the reasons to explain the rationality of how public library system could help their users to be information-rich. For the aspect of taking part in edu- cational process, public library system complies with the essence of education, provides conditions for the whole-life learning of citizens, internalizes the social culture for individuals, offers an opportunity for an open education process and provides key hidden curriculum resources for users. For the aspect of promoting the learning behaviors of individuals, both behaviorism and eognitivism and other learning theories provide an ex- planation for librarianship in promoting the mental mechanism of individual learning from various perspectives. Understanding the functions of public library system from a user-centered perspective will benefit librarianship both on pinpointing professional value and designing the best development path for public libraries. 46 refs.
