近年来,丹麦公共图书馆提供的项目在数量和种类上都有所增加,这导致很难以一种包含其复杂性的方式定义和评估这些项目。为了丰富未来对公共图书馆项目的研究和评估,本文提出了一个基于经验和文本的分析模型。在先前收集了2500多个Facebook事件宣布公共图书馆项目的基础上,本文对这些文本数据进行了分析。受扎根理论编码的启发,Facebook事件的内容按照格式、内容、角色和功能进行分类。因此,建立了一个解析模型。在此基础上,提出公共图书馆项目存在于图书馆馆藏与馆藏之间的关系。因此,它们是理解当今公共图书馆的角色和功能的有趣部分。
In recent years, the programs offered by Danish public libraries have increased in both number and variety, leading to difficulties defining and assessing such programs in a way that encompasses their complexity. To enrich future research and assessments of public library programs, this article presents an empirically based and textually grounded analytical model. Building on prior work collecting more than 2,500 Facebook events announcing public library programs, this article presents the analysis of these textual data. Inspired by grounded theory coding, the content of the Facebook events is categorized in terms of format, content, and role and function. As a result, an analytical model is developed. In light of the analysis, it is argued that public library programs exist between the library collections and the connections they foster. As such, they are an intriguing part of understanding the role and function of public libraries today.
