| Abstract: |
The standardization of grass roots libraries in underdeveloped areas of western China progresses slowly compared to libraries in the developed regions due to the limited resources. Focusing on the standardization of grass roots libraries in underdeveloped areas of western China,this study answers the following questions. 1）What are the barriers to standardization facing grass roots libraries in underdeveloped areas of western China? 2）What factors may impact public libraries standardization process in underdeveloped areas of western China? 3）What are the typologies of the influencing factors? 4）What should be done to solve standardization dilemmas in underdeveloped areas of western China? The authors adopted in depth interviews to collect data from 21 stakeholders,including directors,librarians,and temporary staff in 7 different libraries in a province in western China and some officers who are working in related government departments. We inductively code the 100 000 word interview transcripts with grounded theory.
Firstly,this study reveals the gaps between grass roots libraries standardization process in underdeveloped areas of western China and the regulations in the Public Library Service Specification,a national standard. The lack of infrastructures,human resources,collections,and service performance of these libraries affect the standardization process. Therefore,these grass roots libraries standardization is moving forward as slowly as a person walking with a lame leg. Secondly,the barriers to the standardization process include the limited resources in underdeveloped areas of western China,the problems within the grass roots libraries system,and the inappropriate regulations in related industry standards and documents. They can be defined as resource based,institutional,and policy related barriers. These barriers intertwine and hinder the standardization practices of grass roots libraries in western China. Lastly,the study provides a creative suggestion to overcome the above obstacles with a standardization perspective. And it is essential to develop local standards for the standardization of grass roots libraries since the national standard might ignore the differences among regions. Based on the cultural advantages of western China,this study further designs a framework for developing local standards,including content design,standardization evaluation,staff training,and safeguards for local standards.
This research provides insights into theoretical studies of library standardization and the standardization practices of grass roots libraries in western China. However,due to the lack of personnel,materials,and time,the survey just covers 7 grass roots libraries in underdeveloped areas of western China,and the suggestions put forward have yet to be tested in practice. 5 figs. 7 tabs. 17 refs.

| 中文摘要: |
由于资源禀赋等内生性限制,西部地区基层图书馆在标准化过程中遇到各种难题,影响图书馆事业的可持续发展。为揭示标准化难题及其产生原因,本研究实地调研西部某省的七所基层图书馆,收集一手资料,自下而上开展探索性编码,并结合实际情况进行质性分析。研究发现,西部地区基层图书馆标准化受到区域环境、图书馆内部治理体系和治理能力、标准自身及相关制度等多重因素制约,在标准化建设上存在实践偏差,且这些偏差与标准化影响因素相互掣肘,致使标准实施遭遇阻碍,标准内容难以落地。为解决基层图书馆标准化难题,建议围绕标准的有效实施,创新地方性标准设计与实施考核方案,因地制宜,取长补短,以评促建,通过标准化推动基层图书馆可持续、高质量发展。图5。表7。参考文献17。
