Sommario/riassunto

How do library professionals talk about and refer to library users, and how is this significant? In recent decades, the library profession has conceived of users in at least five different ways, viewing them alternatively as citizens, clients, customers, guests, or partners. This book argues that these user metaphors crucially inform librarians' interactions with the public, and, by extension, determine the quality and content of the services received. The ultimate aim of this book is to provide library professionals with insights and tools for avoiding common pitfalls associated with false or professionally inadequate conceptions of library users.

Sommario/riassunto

Extrait : ""Les sentiments ont leur destinée. Il en est un contre lequel tout le monde est impitoyable : c'est la vanité. Les moralistes l'ont décriée dans leurs livres, même ceux qui ont le mieux montré quelle large place elle a dans nos âmes. Les gens du monde, qui sont aussi des moralistes à leur façon, puisque vingt fois par jour ils ont à juger la vie, ont répété la sentence portée par les livres contre ce sentiment, à les entendre, le dernier de tous.""À PROPOS DES ÉDITIONS LIGARANLes éditions LIGARAN proposent des versions numériques de qualité de grands livres de la littérature classi
