美国20世纪七八十年代的“女性研究”馆员

Women's Studies Librarians in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s

图书馆员一度被视为女性化职业,并将其与女性的角色定位如"辅助性"相比拟。回顾20世纪60-80年代美国第二次妇女运动浪潮之中及此后图书馆的应对举措,可以看到部分女性主义图书馆员自我实现、自我赋权的斗争精神和行动力。文章概括性地阐述当时女性主义馆员奔走行动、争取女性平等权益、铭记女性馆员历史,以及在运动逐渐平息后,扶持及引导"女性研究"这一学科的开展,对该领域的资源组织、描述、建设等方面做出的突出贡献。

In the early 20 th century,it was once believed that the profession of librarian was a feminine one andits function was similar with women＇ s role as assistants. However, some feminist librarians took actions inresponse to the second-wave feminist movement in the United States from the 1960 s to the 1980 s,aiming to bemore self-aware and self-empowered. During the movement,they fought for equal rights and commemorated thehistory of women librarian. Later,they tried to support and guide the development of Women＇s Studies,devotingthemselves to the organization,description and construction of related academic resources.
