What kind of librarians do primary and secondary schools need?
1. The most important function of the library is to support students' extracurricular reading and ensure the quality of books and periodicals. How to purchase books and materials and guide students to read is the most important subject in front of primary and secondary school libraries. In my opinion, a primary and secondary school librarian should be a person who loves books, loves reading and has a wide range of reading interests. Only those who love books and reading can better grasp the pulse of the publishing market, ensure the collection structure and quality of the library, and introduce good books to students while enjoying the pleasure of buying books and reading. Administrators should fully understand the book market by visiting bookstores, reading all kinds of book reviews and newspapers, paying attention to all kinds of new book recommendation lists and sales charts, browsing the reading channels and cultural channels of portal websites, and browsing the classified catalogues of online bookstores. Secondly, the orientation of the library should be auxiliary education and teaching, which is an important feature different from other types of libraries to meet the reading needs of students. Although students can highly evaluate the overall service of the library, it is difficult to quantify it, at least it is difficult to see the inevitable connection with the enrollment rate and other indicators. Because the auxiliary service effect on teaching is easy to be felt, this effect is often used by leaders as the basis for evaluating the service ability of libraries. The requirements put forward by school teaching activities are often general, and the requirements put forward by teachers often need some kind of information. Librarians lack an overall grasp of teaching activities because they have not visited the front line of teaching management in person. If they often fail to meet the needs of teaching and scientific research, they will get negative comments. For librarians with rich knowledge and skills in library and information science, only by attaching importance to education and being familiar with all aspects of teaching activities can they be competent for teaching assistance. As a librarian, we should pay attention to education from the heart, not only to the national education policy, but also to the educational hot spots discussed by the society. More importantly, we should pay attention to the teaching activities of the school and be a close-up educational observer. Only by fully understanding the teaching activities of the school can we purchase documents and materials in a targeted manner, and serve teaching and scientific research at any time with a prepared attitude, so that active service can get twice the result with half the effort. Thirdly, from the perspective of educating all staff, primary and secondary school librarians also bear the responsibility of participating in education. Librarians should give full play to their own advantages, actively participate in educational practice and expand the educational function of libraries. In fact, the primary and secondary school library is a special role in the school. Although it doesn't have the smell of battlefield smoke, nor does it have the responsibility of security and canteen accommodation, it can't be neglected, and it can't be as wrong as educational affairs and finance. Everyone thinks the library is very important, but it seems so unimportant. We should persistently maintain the taste of the library and strive to realize its value. To be a qualified librarian in primary and secondary schools, we must have both ideas and actions.
