Therefore, librarians should constantly improve their own abilities and qualities, constantly optimize their knowledge structure, innovate library management and service modes, and strengthen skills training and quality education to meet the needs of economic and social development.
First, ideological and moral literacy.
Ideological and moral quality is the most basic requirement for librarians to do a good job in book management, the premise of book management and the guarantee of librarians' quality, and ideological and moral quality is in a leading and explanatory position. Without good ideological and moral quality, even with high professional and organizational skills, it is difficult to play. Librarians should have a certain level of Marxist theory and policy, always pay attention to major events at home and abroad, and social hot issues are politically sensitive; With a high degree of socialist enterprise and a strong sense of political responsibility, justice and principle. Librarians should be dedicated to their posts, love their jobs, feel at ease in their jobs, do their jobs well, fully understand their status and role, have a sense of honor and pride, have a high degree of enthusiasm and creativity in professional activities, and engage in library management with a strong sense of professionalism and responsibility.
1, aggressive. Library collection resources are the records and collections of human social life, history and culture, the source of knowledge for people from all walks of life to learn and refer to, and undertake the mission of spreading the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom. Librarians should be aware of the important role and significance of their work, fully realize the position and role of their work in modernization, establish a correct outlook on life and values, love their careers, be loyal to their duties, do their jobs well, and give full play to their roles in the process of economic development and social progress.
2. A high sense of responsibility. Librarians are engaged in an academic, technical and creative work, but also a complex, meticulous, tedious and unknown work, which requires librarians to have a rigorous and meticulous style and a hard-working spirit, with a high sense of responsibility and a dedicated, patient and meticulous work attitude.
3. Serve readers' consciousness. Good service attitude of administrators is the basic guarantee to improve service efficiency. The management of books and documents should be reader-centered, reader-oriented, enthusiastic and thoughtful, proactive, patient and meticulous, think about what readers think, be anxious about what readers are anxious about, be proud of serving readers and obey their satisfaction.
Second, professional knowledge literacy.
The library is the center of human intellectual resources and an important channel for literature information exchange. Library is a comprehensive science which is intersected, infiltrated and combined with natural science, social science, humanities science and applied science. Therefore, in the breadth of cultural knowledge and the depth of professional technology, the knowledge quality of library managers is required to be higher.
1, professional basic knowledge. A qualified librarian should first master the basic knowledge and skills of the library, understand the function, composition and function of the library, be familiar with the classified retrieval knowledge of paper documents and electronic documents such as books and periodicals, and master the professional knowledge of library science, edition science, philology, information retrieval, classification and cataloging.
2. Basic computer knowledge. Under the network environment, the library's book management is centered on the application of computers, supplemented by new technologies such as microfilm, CD-ROM, audio-visual and communication. According to the needs of readers, we have developed electronic resource retrieval, online information resource navigation, information transmission, e-mail push, patent inquiry, online consultation and other service forms, which have formed the characteristics of high-density storage, remote transmission and rapid retrieval of book information. This requires administrators not only to have solid and rich professional knowledge of libraries, but also to master computer operation technology, network communication technology, database technology, system development and maintenance, information storage technology, information retrieval and processing technology, multimedia technology and so on. , which puts forward higher quality requirements for administrators.
3. Basic knowledge of foreign languages. As a networked library, librarians should also master foreign language knowledge and improve their service level. Although most libraries have a certain number of foreign documents, the utilization rate of these foreign documents is not high. One of the main reasons is that librarians and readers don't know much about the types and contents of foreign documents. Therefore, only when librarians have a certain foreign language quality can they effectively process and recommend foreign language documents and databases to readers, and can they search more valuable foreign language resources on the Internet to serve readers.
Third, the quality of business skills.
Library business is a highly knowledgeable, technical, creative and academic job, which requires librarians to have high knowledge quality, foresight, comprehensiveness and induction, and a single professional knowledge can no longer meet the document service. The knowledge of library science and information science is the necessary professional knowledge for managers at all levels of the library. Only when you have rich professional knowledge of library and information, know your own management objects and the specific situation of related businesses can you set appropriate goals for your department, make scientific decisions and implement expert leadership. Professional knowledge also refers to the scientific knowledge needed for management in all walks of life, at all levels and at all posts, such as information science, cybernetics, system theory, decision science and so on.
Library managers should not only have rich professional knowledge of library information, be familiar with the laws and characteristics of library work, but also be proficient in the business technology of their posts, as well as manual labor such as the operation of computer book management integrated system of books, periodicals and newspapers, such as interview, ordering, acceptance, registration, classification, cataloging, storage, borrowing, inquiry, reader management and statistics, as well as scientific shelving, standardized shelving, storage, binding and maintenance.
With the continuous development of librarianship, librarians are required not only to master multi-level knowledge, but also to have the abilities of macro-thinking, scientific logical reasoning, predictive analysis, sensitive information and psychological research, so as to adapt the talent structure to the needs of librarianship development under the new situation.

We should make continuous efforts towards this goal and strive to become a comprehensive compound librarian.
