The work of a librarian

To do a good job in the service of librarians, we must master the main work contents and basic qualities that librarians must have. This paper discusses this problem, and combining with the actual situation of the library, puts forward some corresponding suggestions on how to do well the work of librarians and the significance of librarians.

First, the connotation and responsibilities of librarians

Librarians mainly refer to people who master the knowledge of library and information and are appointed by the library to establish contact with various departments. Through effective communication, we will actively, quickly and effectively provide targeted literature information services to users at different levels, and help and participate in the work of users and librarians in scientific research institutes [1].

The post responsibilities of library managers mainly include:

1, contact information:

Establish an information communication network between readers and school departments in the library, and contact with school departments regularly; And update the network resources, upload the latest information services and resources to the network to meet the latest needs of readers, in addition, widely collect readers' opinions, needs and suggestions on library information services.

2. Resource construction:

Participate in the construction of subject collections and formulate construction strategies according to the actual situation; Participate in the selection of subject resources; Periodically summarize and analyze the use information of subject resources every semester.

3, resource publicity:

Understand all kinds of library resources, and be able to actively publicize them to users in daily work.

4. User training:

Organize users to carry out centralized training to understand the use of various services and resources in the library.

5. Information navigation:

Track and be responsible for the discipline development trends of various departments of the school, understand the discipline development trends of departments, collect, identify, sort out and integrate the discipline resources of corresponding departments (including library resources and online academic resources), and establish discipline navigation to facilitate the search of department resources.

The second is the quality that university librarians should have.

Librarians can be said to be an important intermediary for the dissemination of information resources. They need not only strong business skills, but also very rich experience. In addition, modern service awareness is also essential, which will have a certain impact on the quality of information dissemination [2].

Managers must pay attention to strengthening the knowledge of personal informatics and library science, improve their solid subject knowledge, and have a certain understanding of the current situation, history and future direction of the subject. This can not only improve the management level of the library, but also discuss and communicate with users on this subject, that is, understand their subject needs and introduce more documents that are beneficial to their subject research.

At the same time, the administrator fully represents the image of the library, which can also be said to be the channel for the resource needs of subject users. For this reason, the professional quality and service concept of administrators fully represent the image of the library. When providing users with resource information services, administrators should always maintain a cordial and enthusiastic service attitude, provide readers with a better psychological environment with elegant and generous temperament and civilized and polite use, so that readers can fully feel the respect and help of librarians who come to the library, and then be more willing to accept the services of administrators, so as to achieve the purpose of quality service.

Third, do a good job in librarian service.

The work of the library itself is complicated, but it is so sacred. We manage books and spread culture and ideas. The existence of the library is to cooperate with the education and teaching work and provide the latest and best resources for the vast number of users in time, which requires librarians to make great efforts in work efficiency. First of all, we must always sort out and put the books returned after borrowing on the shelves in time; Secondly, check the books frequently and check them regularly. If you find that these books are not in the right place, you should arrange them in time. Finally, be diligent in reading, make clear the approximate location of books, and find the location of books accurately and timely [3].

In the process of service, we should not only actively serve teachers and students, but also provide readers with the most intimate service, and give full play to the role of consultants and assistants in teachers' teaching work. When teachers and students borrow books, administrators should "never tire of listening, never tire of accepting and asking questions." Due to the large number of teachers and students in the school, the needs of teachers and students who borrow books from the library are different, and the workload of librarians is huge, which requires librarians to give full play to their post spirit and provide the required services for teachers and students as soon as possible with the highest sense of responsibility.

Because the subject librarian model is mainly imported from the west, although it has many advantages, there are still some differences between China and the west. Therefore, we should combine the actual needs of our country and innovate the service model.

(1) broke through the traditional subject librarian model, and in the service process, it integrated various service modes, got rid of the dependence on teaching and research institutions, had proper communication, and provided more services for researchers. And vigorously publicize the library services and resources, so that the recognition and trust of teaching and research personnel in the library can be effectively improved.

(2) Strengthen the training of professional and high-quality subject librarians, so that the personal quality and service ability of the library can be effectively improved. At the same time, the library should innovate more incentive mechanisms, open the door for more talents, and let them see that the work of librarians can also achieve their career goals.

(3) Establish a more professional management and resource information system, adjust the management mechanism while formulating a scientific and reasonable librarian system, and creatively strengthen the management mechanism to avoid formalization of subject librarian services. At present, most of them adopt affiliated and decentralized management mode, but this is not a long-term solution, and centralized management is more conducive to the development of libraries [4].

(4) The establishment of subject navigation is essential, which can provide timely learning services for subject librarians and discover subject information, scientific research information and teaching information in time. At the same time, due to the disorder and complexity of information, if users need to find the information they need, it will inevitably take a lot of time and energy. Therefore, subject librarians can make users find the learned literature through navigation through information retrieval.

Fourth, the significance of librarian service

With the advent of the network era, the importance of subject librarians is becoming more and more prominent, and their influence on scientific research is also increasing. Subject librarian is an important part of library's modern service. As important partners in scientific research and teaching, they can not only face research institutions and disciplines, but also combine modern subject materials to make the information exchange mechanism play a higher role and provide more personalized and targeted guidance services for subject resources. In a word, the service of librarians is an indispensable part of promoting the development of libraries.
