Generalization and Thinking the Professional Discourse of Library Science from the View of Subject

文章从社会科学视野、自然科学视野与人文科学视野三个领域,对图书馆学学科属性界定过程中呈现出的诸多趋势或现象以及给图书馆学研究带来的影响进行思考,认为我国当前图书馆学研究领域存在着学科边界泛化现象。同时,借用"外部反思"和"学徒思维"两个概念,对我国图书馆学研究领域泛化现象的原因进行剖析,阐述了图书馆学在重视宏观研究的基础上,应该聚焦微观研究,紧密围绕图书馆所能提供的资源和服务,从图书馆收藏、服务和实践等诸多方面加强图书馆学专业话语。主要基于图书馆学研究对象及图书馆专业活动角度来看图书馆的专业话语,文中所列举不一定全面,也并非否定学界的诸多研究,仅是抛砖引玉,激发起图书馆界对图书馆专业话语的思考以及专业话语对图书馆实践和活动的基石和引领作用,促使图书馆学良性发展。

From three perspectives of social sciences,natural sciences and humanities,during the process of defining the discipline attributes of library science and the implications for the study of library science,the author considers the current situation in China,and believes there are phenomena or tendencies in the generalization of subject boundaries in the field of library science research.By borrowing the concepts of“external reflection”and“apprentice thinking”,this article analyzes the reasons why these phenomena of generalization in China have emerged,and expounds that library science should focus on the microscopic research on the basis of appreciation the importance of macro research,should closely surround resources and services that libraries could provide,and strengthens the professional discourse of library science in many aspects such as library collection,library service,and library practice.This article is mainly based on library research objects and library professional activities to view the professional discourses of library science,thus the examples cited is not necessarily comprehensive.Besides,this article aims not to deny a lot of academic studies,but as a reference to attract the attention of the library community to the professional discourses of library science,for the benevolent sees the benevolent,the wise sees wisdom.Therefore,library science could be promoted to the sound development,and library’s professional practice and activities could play a cornerstone and leading role.
