Abstract

ABSTRACT An explorative survey pertaining to organization and execution of programs and events offered in public libraries across Connecticut revealed that library programs have been steadily increasing in recent years, with most libraries providing one hundred or more programs a year. The types of programs that are most popular vary throughout the library’s open hours. Children’s programming appears to be more popular during the day while adult programming is more popular in the evening. Program popularity is based on grouping and continuous support from external partners. While this study confirmed that both library space and library staff sizes are adequate for programming, a further investigation would assert that this is the case within nationwide library programming.
公共图书馆活动:谁、什么、在哪里、何时以及为什么?
摘要一项关于康涅狄格州公共图书馆项目和活动的组织和执行的探索性调查显示,近年来,图书馆项目一直在稳步增加,大多数图书馆每年提供100个或100个以上的项目。最受欢迎的节目类型在图书馆的开放时间各不相同。儿童节目似乎在白天更受欢迎,而成人节目在晚上更受欢迎。节目的受欢迎程度是基于分组和外部合作伙伴的持续支持。虽然这项研究证实,图书馆的空间和图书馆工作人员的规模都足以进行编程,但进一步的调查将表明,全国图书馆编程都是如此。

The journal examines: •best practices and models to improve service •management case studies-with results and failures •library mythologies that retard individual and institutional development •studies of how to plan results and accomplish desired outcomes •marketing and fund-raising tools that work •budget and financial analysis tools and tips
