The distance between citizens and books should be closer to create an "urban study room"
In recent years, reading for all is becoming an important task to strengthen the construction of socialist spiritual civilization and promote social progress. To this end, Fengxian District has actively introduced various reading resources. In addition to many well-known bookstores such as Jiangnan Bookstore and Dayin Bookstore, which have successively settled in Fengxian, the district library has also signed contracts with four university libraries in the district to jointly build it. However, neither commercial bookstores nor public libraries can meet the round-the-clock reading needs of the general public due to their own limitations.
In contrast, urban study rooms opened 24 hours a day can become an effective channel for citizens to obtain reading resources anytime and anywhere. In Shanghai, large-scale urban study room clusters have been established in many districts, such as "Rong Study Room" in Pudong, "Light Tower Study Room" in Xuhui, and "Wojia Study Room" in Jiading. It can be seen that urban study room has been widely accepted as a proven advanced experience. I think it is worth learning from and promoting, so I make the following suggestions:
First, it is recommended to establish a network of urban study rooms so that people in Fengxian can enjoy "reading nightlife." Relying on digital technology, RFID radio frequency identification technology and modern library management models, urban libraries can be open to the public 24 hours a day with very few staff or even no staff on duty, and can meet the needs of citizens for reading, borrowing and returning. Books and other needs. Therefore, establishing an urban study room group of a certain scale has incomparable advantages in creating a reading atmosphere.
Secondly, the construction cost of "urban study rooms" is high, and it may be difficult for the government or public libraries to fund the construction and management alone to meet the reading needs of citizens. I suggest that social forces participate in the co-construction and explore a unique urban study operation model. For example, it cooperates with coffee brands to create a "coffee reading" style urban study room that meets the preferences of young people, cooperates with children's education institutions to create an urban study room that has both the function of child care and parent-child activities, and cooperates with universities to create a "coffee reading" style urban study room with salon activities and lecture activities. Characteristic urban study room, etc.
Finally, in addition to the commercial value of urban study rooms, I also suggest exploring more government and public welfare service functions, so that urban study rooms can become a place where the government and the people can communicate. Taking the "riders" group as an example, we can consider giving the urban study room the function of a "rider station". In addition to providing them with necessary material supplies, it also allows the riders to have a place that can meet their own spiritual needs, so as to Enhance their sense of gain and belonging.
