Foshan City Library of Guangdong Province Launches a Book Sharing Service Platform to Make Home Collection Books Move

2022-12-08   

"Ding Dong", Lv Wei, a citizen of Foshan, Guangdong Province, received a book borrowing order for "School in a Small Circle of Rice". She packed the books, and soon the courier came to pick them up. The book "Mi Xiaoquan School Record" in the library shows that it has been lent. The reader Wang Yifan thought that he could only spend money to buy it, but he accidentally found the "Yi Ben Book" home collection book sharing platform launched by Foshan Library - after online registration, he can upload his own idle books for borrowing, or borrow others' books. With the attitude of trying, she registered an account and began to search. The results show that some citizens have just uploaded this set of books. Wang Yifan was overjoyed. He clicked "Order" and received the book the next day. Lu Wei, who lent books, is a full-time mother. She likes to buy books and read books, but many of them are shelved after reading. The change starts with the addition of "E-book". She registered her account in July last year and took photos to upload books. The next night, she received the first book borrowing order. "Up to now, my family's" Mi Xiao Quan Xue Ji "is still in the hands of readers, and many people make appointments." Over the past year, Lv Wei has uploaded 884 books in his family collection, with a total of 2040 borrowed and returned. How to connect readers who are looking forward to borrowing more books and those who have books at home and are willing to share? In September 2019, in the service WeChat group of Foshan Library, a citizen asked: "How to revitalize their own books and lend them like books in the library?" "Many new books or popular books are not available in the library, so we look forward to borrowing them from our friends!" These news aroused the attention of the library. "At present, on the one hand, many families have books lying on the shelves, and some books are not available in the library; on the other hand, the books in the public library cannot meet the reading needs of the whole society." Huang Baichuan, curator of Foshan Library, said. On April 24 last year, Foshan City Library launched the home collection book sharing service, named "E-book". After adding the "E-Book", the reader can search the information of home and library collections at the same time with only one input. "The circulation of library collections and home collections on the same platform breaks the resource boundary, leverages social forces to increase the total supply of book resources in the whole society, and alleviates the shortage of public book resources." Chen Yan, director of Foshan Library Business Management Department, said. In order to further facilitate readers, when borrowing and returning books, you can choose to express them to your home or borrow them face to face. "In order to improve the enthusiasm of readers, every time they borrow or return books, like, collect, etc., they will generate points, which can be directly deducted when paying the freight. The platform will also issue free vouchers for freight from time to time, so that readers can enjoy the package mail home." Chen Yan said. The "Yi Ben Book" witnesses more and more moving stories arising from reading. According to the data, as of late November, the "E-Book" platform had 28500 registered users, 177400 person times of use, 48500 copies of home books uploaded, and 15500 book circulation orders were generated. "There are nearly 30000 families behind the 28500 registered users, which is equivalent to more than 30000 book 'supply points' behind the public library, making up for the shortage of book collection space and limited book purchase funds in the library
