摘要

摘要这一反思是基于作者对小免费图书馆(LFL)日益增多的不加批判的接受的担忧。这些标志性的微型图书库几乎像病毒一样增长,得到了媒体的广泛报道和支持。然而,围绕它们的作用和影响仍然存在许多问题。这篇文章试图探讨LFL的获取问题。近年来,对LFL的使用进行了越来越多的高科技地理空间检查。然而,这种反思性探索是基于对华盛顿州斯波坎LFL的经验和观察的务实回顾。这种实用的方法通过对天气、照明、地形、人行道和污染等障碍物的常识性检查,以及对多样性问题的探索,挑战了围绕LFL全天候使用的广泛叙述。

Reflections on a “media darling”: Debunking naive claims of universal 24/7 access to Little Free Libraries (LFLs)
Abstract This reflection is based on the authors’ concerns around the often-uncritical reception given to the increasing proliferation of Little Free Libraries (LFLs). The almost viral growth of these iconic micro book repositories has been met with widespread media coverage and support. However, many questions remain surrounding their role and impact. This piece seeks to explore the issue of access to LFLs. A growing number of high-tech geo-spatial examinations of access to LFLs have been conducted in recent years. However, this reflective exploration is based upon a pragmatic review of experiences and observations of LFLs in Spokane, WA. This practical approach challenges widespread narratives around the 24/7 nature of access to LFLs through a commonsense examination of obstacles such as weather, lighting, topography, pavements, and pollution, as well as an exploration of the issue of diversity.
