知识输出战略下美国国际图书馆活动研究

Research on U.S.International Library Activities under the Knowledge Output Strategy

20世纪60年代,第三世界国家总体进入不可逆转的现代化进程。教育和文化的发展是构成该进程的核心维度之一。美国趁势部署全方位的知识输出战略,重在借助技术和文化输出将美国模式移植到当地的国家建设与现代化发展中。美国国际图书馆活动作为教育文化领域的重要支撑,一方面在发展中国家广泛创办图书馆,担起美国知识和技术类图书储藏与流通之重任,保障美国图书能够触及形色各异的目标群体;另一方面,积极协助打造当地图书馆的硬件设施、软件建设和图书馆学科体系,深度嵌入东道国图书馆现代化的发展实践。

In the 1960s,Third World countries in general entered into an irreversible modernization process.The development of education and culture was one of the core dimensions of this process.The United States took advantage of the situation to deploy a comprehensive knowledge export strategy,focusing on transplanting the American model to local nation-building and modernization development through technology and cultural export.U.S.international library activities serve as an important support in the field of education and culture.On the one hand,it establishes libraries in developing countries to store and distribute U.S.knowledge and technology books and ensure that U.S.books can reach different target groups;on the other hand,it actively assists in building local libraries'hardware facilities,software construction and library discipline system,and deeply embeds in the development practice of modernizing host country libraries.
