| The library industry is an important cultural battlefield in China,but due to the imperfect protection of e-book intellectual property rights and the popularization of smartphones in China,the application scenarios for the purchase and borrowing functions of traditional libraries in China are becoming fewer and fewer.Especially,the utilization efficiency of grassroots libraries has sharply decreased,resulting in a waste of community space and social resources.During the 14 th Five Year Plan period,grassroots libraries began to cooperate with social enterprise forces,and the design of grassroots libraries also urgently needed transformation.The paper conducts on-site research on the current usage status of grassroots libraries in Xicheng District,Beijing,and combines the actual needs of street/community government agencies,social and cultural enterprises,and residents for grassroots libraries.It explores how to design grassroots libraries through modular technology in the new era to meet the diverse needs of the city.The research results provide useful references for the design,renovation,operational development,and deep cooperation between grassroots libraries and social and cultural enterprises in Beijing.The research content of this article is divided into six chapters,following the research approach of "Introduction-Relevant Theory and Current Research Status at Home and Abroad-Analysis of the Current Situation of Grassroots Libraries in Xicheng District,Beijing-Analysis of Multiple Needs of Grassroots Libraries-Modular Grassroots Library Design Practice".The first chapter sorts out the policy background,legal background,development background,and demand background related to the research of grassroots libraries,elaborates on relevant concepts,and clarifies the research content and methods.Chapter 2 organizes and analyzes domestic and foreign literature and architectural cases related to the construction of grassroots libraries and modular technology.Chapter 3 takes Xicheng District,Beijing as the research object,conducting in-depth research on the construction of all street libraries and representative community libraries.Chapter 4 studies the construction needs of grassroots libraries from three parties: street/community related institutions,social and cultural enterprises,and urban residents through questionnaire surveys and in-depth interviews.Chapter 5,based on the above research results,sorts out and analyzes the needs of multiple parties,determines the component library,module library,and splicing and expansion methods of grassroots library modules,and conducts exemplary designs for typical community libraries.Chapter 6 summarizes the research of the paper,elaborates on the research conclusions and prospects.Based on the above research,the paper proposes the following conclusions: 1Due to insufficient resources,insufficient space,and incomplete functions,the development level of community libraries is far inferior to that of street libraries.It is urgent to promote development through architectural design,development and operation,and other means.2.Grassroots libraries are currently in a period of functional transformation,and the proportion of basic collection and reading areas will decrease.The function of cultural activities will gradually improve,and in the future,cultural activities jointly organized by grassroots libraries and cultural enterprises will become the main function.The cooperation between the two helps to achieve a win-win situation.3.From the perspective of building space and site space,the current grassroots libraries cannot meet the needs of residents to engage in various cultural and artistic activities.Moreover,due to the limited land space in urban built-up areas,the implementation of new and expanded libraries is difficult.Therefore,flexible modular design can be adopted to enhance the adaptability of library functions through the splicing and adjustment of building modules.4.Modular libraries can be flexibly adjusted based on the type,frequency,and reception of cultural activities. |
