摘要

本文深入探讨了公共图书馆在支持和促进扫盲方面的关键作用,特别关注了公共图书馆在财政和基础设施资源匮乏地区(FILTs)的相关性。扫盲作为一项基本技能,赋予个人权力,丰富教育,促进社会和经济发展。然而,许多低收入国家在提供优质教育和培养其人民的识字技能方面遇到了重大障碍。作为一篇基于实证文献的观点文章,本文作为一个介绍性的探索,承认它只触及了提高意识的表面。设计/方法/方法这篇论文扩展了现有的关于公共图书馆和扫盲计划的必要性的文献。它有目的地解决了一系列可能在FILTs中出现矛盾的问题,主要是由于经济限制。然而,从作者的角度来看,这些问题实际上突出了干预和进步的巨大潜力。可以确定许多明显的策略来实现一个开明和受教育的国家的目标,培养有能力的个人。其中一种方法是优先促进和支持公共图书馆的扫盲项目。尽管如此,迫切需要提高人们对在处理各种相互关联的问题时采取整体观点的重要性的认识。这包括与受过教育和识字的社会有关的长期优势,特别是在非发达国家。原创性/价值图书馆和信息科学领域的文献提供了很少的关于图书馆扫盲支持计划的出版物,尽管事实上,培养知情和有文化的公民是许多图书馆的使命和愿景计划中的一个突出目标。本文提出了一个探索性的观点,旨在提高人们对考虑多种方法来支持和促进FILTs公共图书馆扫盲的重要性的认识。它还建议制定一个框架,作为促进这一努力的手段。虽然本文的背景是为低收入国家编制的,但该框架的某些方面也可能对其他资源充足的地区和图书馆有用和适用。

Toward the development of a framework for literacy support and promotion by public libraries in financially and infrastructurally low-resourced territories
PurposeThis paper delves into the pivotal role of public libraries in supporting and promoting literacy, with a particular focus on their relevance in financially and infrastructurally low-resourced territories (FILTs). Literacy, being a fundamental skill, empowers individuals, enriches education and contributes to social and economic development. Nonetheless, numerous FILTs encounter substantial obstacles in granting access to quality education and fostering literacy skills among their people. As an opinion piece rooted in empirical literature, this paper serves as an introductory exploration, acknowledging that it only skims the surface of raising awareness.Design/methodology/approach This paper expands upon the existing body of literature concerning public libraries and the imperative for literacy programs. It purposefully addresses a range of issues that may appear contradictory in FILTs, primarily due to economic constraints. However, from the authors’ perspective, these issues actually highlight the vast potential for intervention and progress.Findings Numerous evident strategies can be identified to attain the goal of an enlightened and educated nation, fostering empowered individuals. One such approach involves prioritizing the promotion and support of literacy programs in public libraries. Nonetheless, there is a pressing need for heightened awareness regarding the significance of adopting a holistic perspective when addressing various interconnected issues. This includes the long-term advantages associated with an educated and literate society, particularly in FILTs.Originality/value The literature within the field of library and information science offers scarce publications regarding literacy support programs in libraries, despite the fact that fostering informed and literate citizens is a prominent goal in the mission and vision plans of numerous FILTs. This paper presents an exploratory perspective, aiming to raise awareness about the significance of considering diverse approaches to support and promote literacy in public libraries within FILTs. It also proposes the development of a framework as a means to facilitate this endeavor. While the context of the paper is framed for FILTs, aspects of the framework may also be useful and applicable in other well-resourced regions and libraries.
