Abstract

Public and municipal libraries, besides being keepers of local community documents and books, are - or should be - modern hubs of knowledge and diffusers of information to the community that surrounds them. This article reveals the areas of extroversion that municipal and public libraries can undertake, focusing on the efforts they need to make in order to best interact with local communities, going beyond their traditional usage of addressing only their patrons. Furthermore, the results of a survey conducted in the frame of the 4th Panhellenic Public Libraries Conference are presented, showing how much extroverted librarians working in public and municipal libraries are considered, as well as what kind of extroversion programs they implement in their library. Keywords: public libraries, municipal libraries, extroversion, innovation, sustainability of libraries, lifelong learning, information literacy
通过外向性实现可持续发展:希腊市政和公共图书馆的奇特案例
公共和市政图书馆,除了是当地社区文件和书籍的保管者之外,还是——或者应该是——知识的现代中心,并向周围社区传播信息。本文揭示了市政和公共图书馆可以承担的外向性领域,重点关注他们需要做出的努力,以便最好地与当地社区互动,超越他们只与顾客交谈的传统习惯。此外,本文还介绍了在第四届泛希腊公共图书馆会议框架内进行的一项调查结果,显示了在公共和市政图书馆工作的外向图书馆员被认为是多少,以及他们在图书馆实施了什么样的外向计划。 关键词:公共图书馆、市立图书馆、外向性、创新、图书馆可持续性、终身学习、信息素养
