How to use the library effectively?

Introduction: Library plays a guiding role in the whole society in the process of human cultural inheritance and innovation, and is the driving force of social progress. As a gathering place of talents, it should become a demonstration area for the inheritance and innovation of human culture. I. Several reasons for using the library 1. The class hours are greatly reduced. In the high school stage, the weekly class hours of middle school students are about 5-6 hours, and some schools have more. In college, the average weekly class hours in the first academic year are about 3-4 hours, and will be reduced in the future. Many freshmen who are used to intense study in middle school suddenly feel that they have a lot of time of their own. 2. The amount of information in the class has obviously increased in a class in middle school. Teachers generally only talk about two or three pages in the textbook. In universities, freshmen will find that after two classes, the whole chapter has passed. 3, the role of teaching materials is reduced, and the role of reference books and periodicals is relatively improved. In middle schools, the teaching content generally does not exceed the teaching materials. As long as you learn the designated teaching materials well and do more exercises, you can cope with various exams in middle schools well. Although there are textbooks during the university, the content taught by teachers is often not limited to textbooks. The reason is that, on the one hand, it is difficult to include the latest achievements of this major because of the long updating period of teaching materials. Secondly, there are textbooks compiled by various schools in a general course. Although some of them are relatively well compiled, they all have their own strengths. If they are limited to one textbook, it is obviously impossible to impart the best knowledge to students. In this case, it is obvious that the role of various teaching reference books and professional publications will be relatively improved. 4. Active learning replaces passive learning. In middle school, students follow the teacher's baton, and learning is basically passive. In college, students should not only learn to manage their own lives, but also learn how to arrange their own studies. Especially with the implementation of the comprehensive credit system, the choice of majors, the choice of courses, the formulation of study plans and the arrangement of time all depend on students themselves, and autonomy and initiative have become a major feature of university study. Second, freshmen must make full use of the library. With the role change from middle school students to college students, freshmen must solve an important problem, that is, how to use the library to study. 1. Freshmen should regard the library as a big classroom. Middle school students are used to using the classroom as the main place for themselves to acquire knowledge. At the university stage, the number of class hours is reduced and the amount of information is increased, which requires students to prepare well before class and spend more time reviewing after class. That is to say, a lot of spare time for freshmen should not be spent before the flowers and under the moon, nor should it be spent on game TV, but should be mainly used for studying in large classrooms such as libraries. 2. Freshmen should make use of the good learning atmosphere in the library to form good study habits as soon as possible. Facts have proved that the quality of a student's study is certainly related to his intelligence, but more importantly, it depends on his hard work and study habits. A student's study habits are the result of his subjective efforts, long-term practice and external influences. The library is the temple of knowledge, the distribution center of information and knowledge, and the best place for many students to study hard. Freshmen should actively make use of this favorable condition and try their best to form the good habit of concentrating on reading and studying. 3. Freshmen should make full use of the library to learn their professional knowledge well. Teachers only talk about the most basic and important things in this major in class, and the library has a variety of teaching materials, reference books and professional publications for various majors. Students who are interested in learning a certain professional knowledge well should make full use of various information resources in the library, understand the whole picture, frontier and development trend of this major, and deepen their understanding of classroom teaching content through learning in the library. 4. Freshmen should make full use of the library to broaden their knowledge. At present, an important feature of the development of science and technology is the increasingly extensive and in-depth interdisciplinary, and an important trend of higher education reform is the combination of science and engineering, the infiltration of arts and sciences, and the cultivation of compound talents. On the one hand, college students study the knowledge and theory of their major in the library, on the other hand, they swim in the ocean of knowledge through extensive reading, which is undoubtedly very beneficial to become a versatile and versatile compound talent. 5. Freshmen should learn the skills of acquiring knowledge and information in the library. The learning and improvement of this skill is more important than learning limited knowledge in the library, because today's knowledge is updated faster and faster, and the knowledge learned in school today may be aging in a few years. Therefore, freshmen should not only learn the skills and ways to obtain books and periodicals by traditional methods, but also learn modern information technology. 3. Several stages of using the library The library is one of the three pillars of running a school (teachers, books and materials, experimental equipment). The library has a good learning environment and strong learning atmosphere, rich literature resources, more retrieval tools, modern computer equipment and enthusiastic librarians. It should be the second classroom for college students to receive professional education and the first classroom for quality education. There are several different main stages in college students' learning career: 1. Freshmen's understanding of the library at the beginning of enrollment is the first step and a crucial step in the whole university learning stage. With correct understanding and use of the library in this period, college students can quickly grasp the key to opening the treasure house of knowledge, thus making full use of the precious and limited years of college time to learn their majors, enrich their knowledge, understand the society and shape their lives, thus achieving the goal of making full use of the library. Freshmen should consider the following contents when they enter the school: (1) Understand the history of our library. (2) The level of teaching and scientific research, research achievements, the collection system and characteristics of the library according to the professional settings of the school. (3) Understand the workflow and classification rules of the library, know how many procedures a book, a volume, a newspaper has to go through from ordering to using, cherish every document in the library, and respect the hard work of the staff. (4) Understand the collection situation, borrowing methods, rules and regulations of reading rooms and stacks, and consciously keep public occasions clean and quiet, maintain a good reading order, and be civilized readers. (5) Take good care of the public goods in the library and be public-minded. It is recognized that the library has always been a sacred place to learn cultural knowledge, master scientific knowledge and cultivate sentiment. Any book damage is contrary to the construction of socialist spiritual civilization and is despised by everyone. 2. In normal times, college students are different from middle school students. It is far from enough to master what teachers teach in class. They need to know the latest development trends and latest scientific research achievements of their major, to supplement them with knowledge of related disciplines, and to enrich themselves with knowledge of other subjects, which requires college students to make full use of the library. After college students enter school, the library has become the most important classroom for students besides classroom education. How to obtain the required information quickly has become the most practical problem faced by college students. (1) Familiar with library literature retrieval. Skillfully use reference books in Chinese and foreign languages, understand the main retrieval publications and online retrieval contents at home and abroad, understand the basic theory, retrieval methods, languages and methods of literature retrieval, and have the flexibility and retrieval ability to draw inferences from others. (2) Skillful use of computer retrieval system. With the continuous development of computer technology and modern communication technology, some have established international or domestic online terminals and CD-ROM retrieval systems. The networking trend of CD-ROM and the establishment of campus networks, even regional networks and national networks will make it inevitable for users to search on the computer. Students must be proficient in computer retrieval, a fast and novel retrieval method. (3) Understand the book classification. The books in the library are processed and put into storage according to the China book classification. College students should have a basic understanding of this, such as how to classify the books in the library, what retrieval tools are available, the arrangement system of retrieval tools, and access methods. College students should go into the library and combine theoretical guidance with practical operation, and the effect will be more remarkable. 3. Writing graduation thesis at graduation stage is a comprehensive assessment of college students' knowledge, ability and quality in recent years. Students need a lot of literature. As college students, the first thing to do is to communicate with the teachers and understand the time for college students to write papers, the scope and requirements of topics. Secondly, we should go to the library to find relevant information, prepare the required literature, and concentrate the literature materials that may be used according to the needs of the paper, including various literature indexes and reference books. There are two kinds of knowledge, one is knowledge that needs to be memorized, and the other is knowledge that "knows where to get knowledge". The study of the latter knowledge is very important and beneficial for life. The expansion of knowledge and the deepening of study and research require today's college students to have a strong sense of library and rich knowledge of library utilization, so it is very urgent and of great practical significance for college students to master the knowledge of library utilization. I found it from other places. Personally, I think it is quite reasonable. I hope it will help you, hehe. )
