我国图书馆的现代化有赖于建筑设计的革新。 要革新,必须明确目标,这就不能不先涉及图书馆的使命。 古代藏书楼与近、现代图书馆的基本区别在于,前者主要用来藏书,后者则不仅如此,更重要的是为广大读者使用馆藏提供空间和设施。“以阅为主”的提法,确切地概括了图书情报工作的基本宗旨,是我们进行图书馆设计的出发点和归宿。 The modernization of our library depends on the innovation of architectural design. To innovate, we must make clear our goals. This cannot but mention the mission of the library. The basic difference between ancient library buildings and modern and modern libraries is that the former is mainly used for collecting books, while the latter is not only so, but more importantly, it provides space and facilities for readers to use their collections. The “reading-based” formulation accurately outlines the basic purpose of library and information work and is the starting point and destination of our library design.
