本文概述了西方公共图书馆发展到现在的形式(S)，以及它向主流社会视角的转变。这导致了一场关于“数字图书馆和零点图书馆”的讨论，它是两条主线之一，另一条是“社会空间和地点”。我们的主要批评是，这种发展令人遗憾地淡化了社会视角，转而支持对社会问题的关注。另一个副作用是，人们越来越缺乏对现场实物收藏潜力的关注。通过提出一个具体的反例，我们讨论了图书馆藏书是社区关注的问题，并作为弥合社会-社会鸿沟的一步。重新定义现场藏品的潜力是在公共图书馆提供非传统藏品的背景下产生的，比如工具借阅图书馆。
This article presents an overview of the Western public library’s development into its present form(s) and its shift to the prevailing social perspective. This leads to a discussion of “digital and point-oh libraries” as one of two major strands and “social space and place” as the other. Our main critique is that this development has caused an unfortunate downplay of societal perspectives in favor of a focus on social issues. Another side effect is a growing lack of attention to the potential of physical, on-site collections. By proposing a specific counterexample, we discuss library collections as a community concern and as a step toward bridging the social-societal gap. The potential of a redefined on-site collection is set against the backdrop of public libraries offering nontraditional collections, such as tool-lending libraries.
