Development Status of Digital Library in Higher Vocational Colleges
Compared with key universities, the accumulation of literature information resources in higher vocational colleges is less, especially the collection and management of literature information lags behind the overall development level of libraries in ordinary undergraduate colleges. The specific situation is reflected in:
1) There are few literature information resources and the service is not satisfactory. At present, all higher vocational colleges have their own professional settings and corresponding talent training programs. To develop library resources according to these needs, literature resources service should not only meet the teaching needs, but also play a supplementary role in scientific research in colleges and universities. The basic direction of library construction is social demand and professional construction. Strong professionalism and professionalism are the characteristics of most documents, and the professionalism of the documents is outstanding and practical.
2) The general shortage of funds affects the availability of resources. At present, the funds for running higher vocational colleges in China are mostly tight. Limited by many factors such as manpower and financial resources, all kinds of literature information resources collected by the library are relatively limited. Teachers seldom need high-level teaching and scientific research reference materials. In the process of learning, students' demand for literature and reference information is obviously lower than that of ordinary undergraduate colleges.
3) The orientation of the concept of running a library is not high, which affects the efficiency in place. In addition to the lack of development funds, the library of higher vocational colleges is also affected by the system and service concept, and there are many defects such as backward management level and low quality of personnel, which greatly limits the self-construction and sustainable development of the library of higher vocational colleges.
4. Knowledge base construction
Take Shandong Electronic Vocational and Technical College as an example. The total building area of the college library is 65,438+00,000 square meters, with a total collection of more than 800,000 books (including more than 300,000 electronic resources). The collected documents are collected according to subject category, document category and usage requirements. From 65438 to 0999, Dalian Bofeite document management software system was used to realize the computer automatic management of library acquisition, cataloging and circulation reading. In 2004, I switched to Shenzhen ILASII library management system. At present, there are two system servers and one WEB server 1 set, which realize the office automation and reader service networking of business processing such as editing, circulation, borrowing and returning, and periodicals.
University teachers usually borrow books around teaching professional courses, and they have high requirements for borrowing books. Most of them require professional books in the library to meet their teaching reference requirements. Most students in the school failed in the college entrance examination and showed little interest in professional study. Most of them prefer leisure books. Only some students will borrow professional courses and exams to review related books before taking English and computer grade exams. Some students will also prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination. Before graduation, the borrowing volume of the library dropped significantly. School administrative logistics personnel mainly borrow books and materials related to the nature of their work, such as books related to politics, administration and education management. Therefore, the collection of library materials focuses on strengthening the database which is urgently needed for teaching and scientific research, has the characteristics of various professions and can achieve remarkable social and economic benefits.
3. Specific measures to establish digital library
3. 1 human resources construction
It depends on the quality of librarians to build a good library, provide high-quality services for readers and truly realize the functions of digital libraries in colleges and universities. Library professionals should have knowledge of library and information science, master modern information technology such as computers, and have rich professional and cultural knowledge. Specifically, you should have the following basic knowledge and skills.
First of all, librarians must have skilled computer network technology and the ability to develop and utilize information resources in order to accurately provide readers with the information they need. You also need to master other related knowledge and skills. Mainly refers to public relations, management and other knowledge and skills closely related to future library work. With the development of society and the expansion of library functions, the requirements for these knowledge and skills will be higher and higher. The cultivation and mastery of relevant knowledge and skills will promote the success of specialized personnel.
Secondly, you should be proficient in professional knowledge. As professional information workers, librarians should have the skills of information classification, organization and acquisition. It is necessary to master the professional knowledge of certain disciplines, reach the level of experts, and have the ability to predict certain disciplines. Only in this way can it become the intermediary and link between the literature information of a specific occupation and the readers of the corresponding occupation, and provide readers with extensive, fast, accurate and high-quality services. Third, we must have strong analytical skills and be able to put forward the best service plan in time and effectively. Strong analytical ability requires librarians to explore valuable direct and indirect factors when searching for relevant information, identify, summarize and summarize information from multiple angles, be good at communication, be able to make reasonable suggestions independently and carry out systematic consulting services. Finally, librarians must have a high sense of responsibility and a rigorous and meticulous work style. Engaged in any kind of occupation, we must have a strong enterprising spirit and a highly responsible spirit. Library work is highly technical and professional, complex, meticulous and tedious. If you are not serious, you will make mistakes. Only with a high sense of responsibility and a rigorous and meticulous work style can we establish a scientific work order and a good service environment.
3.2 Network security construction
System and network are the foundation of building digital library. Without them, there would be no digital library. The security of digital library should first talk about the security of digital library system and network. This includes equipment security, operation security and network security. Equipment security refers to the physical security of computers, storage equipment, network equipment, communication equipment and security equipment in the digital library system to prevent man-made and natural damage; Operational safety refers to the operational safety of the server operating system and digital library software, which can prevent the system from running software failures and reduce the instability of the system caused by software failures. Network security refers to the cooperation between servers and the security of information exchange, preventing information leakage and resisting hacker attacks.
First, UPS is added to prevent data from being destroyed when power is cut off. Secondly, the virtual network technology is used to divide different network security areas. In the digital library network, the physical isolation of internal subnets can be realized by using virtual network technology. Third, establish a multi-layer firewall. Use firewall between library intranet and education network and campus network. This can prevent hackers from attacking the Internet to a certain extent and protect the security of the library intranet. Set up firewalls between different network security domains in the library. Finally, the use of intrusion monitoring system, early detection of hacking. Intrusion detection system is a relatively new software system, which can find ongoing attacks, give real-time alarm to attacks, and resist attacks by automatically modifying the configuration of routes or firewalls. Analyze complex log files to provide effective results for network security managers.
3.3 Service Mode Construction
Due to the limitation of technical conditions, it is difficult for traditional information exchange to carry out large-scale direct communication, and information dissemination needs the help of intermediaries. The spread of digital information has broken through the limitation of time and space. Users can use digital information very conveniently and get the latest news without leaving home.
